Comfortable two story home on 5 acres is surrounded by woods and bordered by nearly 700' of Huntington Creek. The house sets high above a couple terraced areas of lawn and has a screened porch and deck around two sides to enjoy quiet time watching wildlife (including the local bald eagle!) and listening to the creek. When the weather keeps you indoors, you can relax by one of two fireplaces. So much room, so many possibilities. Call Pam today to see this unique property. 570-204-6379.
