106 PINE KNOB RD Newville, PA 17241

Whether you are a hunter, an outdoorsman, a prepper, weary of the city and suburbs, or just need a weekend escape--look no further. This perfectly serene cabin-style retreat on 33 acres at the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains fits the bill. It offers the ultimate in self-sufficient privacy and a tranquil escape yet is close to both the Harrisburg and Chambersburg areas of south central Pennsylvania. A floor to ceiling stone, wood-burning fireplace, flanked by 5'x5' picture windows and accented by soaring 18-foot vaulted knotty pine ceilings, welcomes you to the great room, the hallmark of this home's open floor plan. This centerpiece flows into a gourmet eat-in kitchen featuring ample natural lighting, plenty of workspace, a walk-in pantry, and a central location between the great room and recently finished family room with its beamed 12-foot ceiling and beautiful hardwood floors. Enjoy the seclusion of the first floor master bedroom with tiled en suite, walk-in closets, and adjoining office. The second floor features a balcony sitting area that leads to the guest suite with private bath and the third bedroom. Possibilities abound in the 800 square foot unfinished walkout basement boasting 9-foot ceilings, a functioning woodburning fireplace, storage areas, and is already tapped and framed for a 4th bathroom and a wet bar. An oversized 2-car garage provides enough room for two vehicles and workshop and has a separate room housing the efficient geothermal heating and cooling system. Step out the double-door main entrance for sweeping views from the 600 square foot all wood deck wrapping half of the house, then down the steps to the most eye-catching piece of the puzzle: a heated 39'x29' inground saltwater swimming pool set dramatically behind a boulder retaining wall (installed in 2017 by Goodall pools). A large outbuilding, wired for electricity, is perfect for storage of ATVs, lawn equipment and tractor. Buffered by acres of lush landscaping and dense tree cover teeming with wildlife, this property qualifies for clean-and-green status, minimizing tax liability for the full-time occupant. When pandemics and social strife make life in the city unbearable, don't shelter in place--shelter in style. Don't miss your chance to view this home before it's gone!
