About this House

Extraordinary settings are rarely available and nearly impossible to recreate. Spanning 34+ BEAUTIFUL acres in the rolling countryside of Central Pennsylvania, this property is distinguished by panoramic mountain views, and peaceful surroundings. At the heart of the property are two Morton buildings designed to support a wide range of equestrian pursuits. The 60' x 156' building features 20 stalls, automatic waterers, a tack room, and room for more. The 54' x 126' building houses an indoor riding arena, providing space for year-round riding and training regardless of the season. Beyond the barns, you'll find multiple fenced paddocks, an outdoor corral, and more than two miles of fencing creating an efficient, well-planned layout while preserving the property's open vistas and remarkable natural beauty. From sunrise over the mountains to the golden light at day's end, the views are unforgettable. Whether your vision is boarding, training, lessons, layover stabling, creating a premier private equestrian facility, or something totally different, this property offers the space, infrastructure, and that one-of-a-kind setting to bring it to life. Conveniently located with easy access to major East Coast highways, it offers a rare combination of accessibility, privacy, and exceptional scenery. Some properties are defined by what has been built. This one is defined by the extraordinary landscape that surrounds it and the possibilities it inspires.
