311 Derry Ridge Road, Ligonier, PA — Luxury Estate on 32 Acres | Laurel Highlands Escape to one of Ligonier, Pennsylvania's most extraordinary private estates — a cedar-clad sanctuary where rolling lavender fields, a prolific apple orchard, and sweeping views of the Laurel Ridge unfold across 32 pristine acres. At 5,130 square feet, with 5 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, 311 Derry Ridge Road is a rare opportunity in Westmoreland County luxury real estate. Following an extensive two-year renovation by the sellers — a practicing architect and a celebrated interior designer — this home has been transformed into a masterpiece of craft, comfort, and intentional design. A newly constructed primary suite, a private in-law suite, a dedicated design studio, fully renovated bathrooms, and a redesigned kitchen-dining area with walk-in pantry were all added with meticulous precision. The kitchen centers on a 60-inch ILVE Italian gas range, framed by hand-selected marble countertops and an artisan backsplash — a space that embodies la dolce vita in every detail. Inviting color palettes animate the main living spaces, while specialty rooms are conceived as jewel boxes — saturated with rich, monochromatic hues that shift the mood with each threshold. Garden-level bedrooms and the in-law suite carry their own distinct character while remaining fluent in the home's unified design language. Low-maintenance perennial lavender plantings and a thriving apple orchard deliver seasonal beauty and income potential without the burden of intensive upkeep. Currently operating as a successful Airbnb and event barn destination, the property generates revenue while offering its owners an atmosphere of absolute calm. Views of the Laurel Ridge are nothing short of spectacular. Located just 5 minutes from the charming borough of Ligonier and 25 minutes from Arnold Palmer Regional Airport in Latrobe, this estate is as accessible as it is secluded. Pittsburgh's luxury market is well within reach — making this ideal for a full-time residence, a Laurel Highlands retreat, or a premier short-term rental investment. For buyers searching Ligonier luxury homes, Westmoreland County estate properties, Pennsylvania lavender farms, Laurel Highlands Airbnb retreats, or architect-designed country homes — this is the property you did not expect to find. A 32-acre sanctuary in the Laurel Highlands — reimagined by an architect and interior designer into a living work of art. Nestled in the rolling hills of Ligonier, Pennsylvania, 311 Derry Ridge Road is a rare convergence of nature, craft, and vision. The cedar-clad residence crowns a private 32-acre estate where lavender perennial fields sway in the mountain breeze and a prolific apple orchard yields fruit each season — a working pastoral landscape that is simultaneously breathtaking and effortlessly low-maintenance. Following an extensive two-year renovation led by the sellers — a practicing architect and a decorated interior designer — every square foot of this 5,130 sqft home has been elevated to a level rarely encountered in southwestern Pennsylvania's luxury real estate market. This is not a renovation. This is a transformation. Every detail — from the walk-in pantry to the garden-level in-law suite — reflects decades of professional mastery applied to a deeply personal vision. Inside, inviting color palettes animate the principal living spaces, while specialty rooms — conceived as jewel boxes — are bathed in rich, saturated, monochromatic hues that shift the energy with each threshold crossed.
