Overview

Description

There are woods in the Pocono Mountains where the light falls softly through hemlock and maple, and the forest floor keeps the quiet of seasons passing. These two adjoining parcels in Penn Forest Streams come together to offer approximately 2.20 acres of that kind of woodland - a place that feels less like a subdivision lot and more like a small piece of forest waiting patiently for a home. Walk beneath the trees and the mountain air settles in. Hemlock and pine stand among native hardwoods, with natural clearings and gentle woodland paths already beginning to suggest where a cabin porch, garden, or fire circle might someday rest. The property consists of two adjoining parcels, offering added privacy and flexibility for a homesite tucked naturally into the landscape. Perc testing has been completed on one of the lots, providing an important step toward future construction. Despite the sense of seclusion, the property remains conveniently located just minutes from Route 903, the PA Turnpike, and the historic town of Jim Thorpe, with easy access to Stroudsburg, the Lehigh Valley, and Philadelphia. Residents of Penn Forest Streams enjoy access to community amenities including: • Two outdoor swimming pools • Tennis courts • Basketball courts • Playground and recreation areas • Clubhouse and community gathering space • Community-maintained roads Outdoor recreation surrounds the property, with nearby access to: • Hickory Run State Park and Boulder Field • Lehigh Gorge State Park biking and rafting • Blue Mountain Ski Area • Historic downtown Jim Thorpe's shops, restaurants, and festivals Whether envisioned as a weekend mountain retreat or a full-time home among the trees, this 2.20-acre woodland setting offers the rare opportunity to build in a place where the forest still feels deep, quiet, and timeless.
