Escape the subdivision life for a residence defined by scale, privacy, and rugged utility. Set on 32.39+/- acres, this cabin-style estate is built for those who want their permanent home to feel like a fortress of solitude without sacrificing modern comforts. The interior features a recently updated kitchen equipped with new appliances and granite countertops. While there is a propane furnace, there is also a classic woodstove that provides a high-efficiency heating source and a focal point for the entertainment area in the basement. The home's footprint is anchored by an expansive rear deck designed for four-season use; whether you're hosting or decompressing, the integrated hot tub offers total privacy, screened by a dense canopy of mature timber to create an outdoor living room that feels completely removed from the outside world. This isn't just a woodlot; it's a gateway. The property borders Gambrill State Park, providing exploration and recreational opportunities right out your back door. For the serious outdoorsman or the family seeking an active lifestyle, the land offers endless utility for hiking, scouting, and wildlife management. The long, wooded approach ensures a level of seclusion and security that is increasingly rare, making this an ideal primary residence for those seeking a quiet, secure environment. Practicality meets potential inside and out, with a walkout basement that provides the ideal entertainment area or can be converted into a home office, gym, or additional bedrooms to grow with your needs. An existing shed provides organized storage for ATVs and maintenance equipment, keeping your primary living spaces clutter-free. Shown by appointment only, this is more than a getaway-it is a rare opportunity to own a significant piece of acreage with your ideal mountain retreat on your own recreational land in the Catocin Mountains.
