Property Description
Welcome to the picturesque countryside of eastern PA. On the surface you'll find a rare chance to own a beautifully crafted home on a river, but dig a bit deeper and you'll come to find a profound amount of opportunity, so let's dive in! This property has been meticulously upgraded with a no-expense-spared approach to ensure unparalleled protection from moisture & flooding allowing it to coexist seamlessly with its riverfront setting and adjacent pond. The front yard has been re-engineered to direct rainwater safely away and the residence itself is elevated approximately two feet above the surrounding landscape. The home is divided from the river by a double-sided steel reinforced concrete barrier spanning 100ft by 7ft wide with an in-ground depth exceeding the bottom of the river by several feet ensuring the final word against moisture penetration. The meticulously designed bridge offers a graceful approach to the home's entrance, while concrete shoulders maintain uninterrupted water flow beneath. The property features 14+ Acres in the Rural Agricultural Zoning district of Drums PA between 3 separate parcels with separate access points. There's a variety of ways the parcels can be utilized either together or separately. Lot-1 & 2 for example add up to just over 10 acres (Act 319 candidate) while lot-3 is 3.79 acres with separate access from a different road altogether. This could potentially accommodate separate proprietorships between parcels or separate residences altogether.
