Property Description
Perched on a private clearing at the top of the mountain, the 4-bedroom, 3-bath log home was built in 2003 by Crockett Log Homes and is designed for easy, comfortable living. The first-floor primary suite, complete with a gas fireplace and jacuzzi tub, means single-level living is right there when you want it, with three additional bedrooms upstairs for family, visiting grandkids, or guests. The living room's cathedral ceilings and large stone wood-burning fireplace create a gathering space that feels like the heart of a lodge. The kitchen is built for hosting, with an island, propane range, double wall oven, and hickory cabinets handcrafted by a local Amish craftsman, who also built the fireplace mantle and stairs. Solid wood floors run through the living and dining areas, radiant floor heat warms the kitchen and bathrooms, and Marvin windows and doors, central vac, and a 1,000-gallon buried propane tank keep the home efficient and low-maintenance year-round.
The Superior Walls basement with outside access is a blank canvas: a game room and bunk area for larger rental groups, a hobby shop, a home gym, or an in-law suite are all within reach. Outside, the covered porch wraps the entire way around the home and faces straight into that view. It's the kind of feature guests photograph and owners never tire of, with room for rocking chairs, outdoor dining, and long evenings watching the light change over the mountains. A fenced yard off the porch keeps pets and little ones close.
Two substantial outbuildings add flexibility few properties can match. The insulated 32x60 Fisher Brothers pole shed (2018) is ideal for a workshop, vehicles, or guest gear storage, and the 40x60 TriState pole building (2002) has room for equipment, an RV, or the boat. A township-maintained dirt road with winter plowing provides reliable year-round access, and trails throughout the acreage invite daily walks, hikes, and exploring.
The location does the marketing for you. Less than 200 yards from Sproul State Forest and the Salt Lick Trail access road, with State Game Lands 92 nearby, the property sits at the doorstep of thousands of acres of public land. Howard Lake and the Bald Eagle State Forest area are about 15 minutes away for boating, fishing, and paddling. Deer, bear, and turkey are regular visitors, and an elk has even been spotted on the land. Three wooden blinds and two ladder stands convey, making this a turnkey draw for hunting-season bookings or your own fall tradition.
Retreat, retire, or rent. Hummingbird Hideaway is ready for whichever you choose. Come see it in person, because as good as the photo is, the view is better.
