Rare opportunity to own a private Pocono retreat directly bordering Gouldsboro State Park, just a short walk to Gouldsboro Lake. Tucked away at the end of the road with no through traffic, this property offers exceptional privacy and a true connection to nature.
Set on two separately taxed parcels totaling approximately 0.22 acres, the home features a large screened-in front porch--perfect for enjoying peaceful mornings, evening breezes, and the surrounding wooded setting. Wild huckleberries grow naturally on the property, adding to its unique character.
The home has seen significant recent upgrades including a new roof, windows, doors, insulation, updated electrical service, and a propane heating system (with owned 500-gallon tank), providing comfortable year-round use. No HOA and relatively low property taxes contribute to a low-maintenance ownership experience.
Inside, the layout offers four bedrooms and a warm, inviting living space ideal for gatherings. The heated lower level provides excellent recreation space with potential for further customization, including a future second bathroom.
With immediate access to hiking, fishing, and hunting, this property is ideally suited as a weekend escape, seasonal retreat, or full-time residence. Many furnishings may also be available, offering a turnkey opportunity for the next owner.
