About this House

Tucked onto 6.2 private, wooded acres in the heart of Pine Township, this character-filled cottage pairs storybook charm with thoughtful updates and rare acreage in the top-ranked Pine-Richland School District. A natural stone chimney and classic rooflines set the tone outside. Inside, hardwood floors run throughout both floors. A wood-burning fireplace anchors the living room, and the 2024 updated kitchen offers quartz countertops and newer appliances, plus a separate Dining Room; all create a great space. A first-floor half bath complements a standout wood-paneled den with custom built-ins — an ideal home office, 3rd BR/guest room, or flex space. The second floor has 2 bedrooms and a full bath. The showpiece is outdoors: an expansive brick patio with a built-in outdoor kitchen, including a wood-burning authentic masonry fireplace, never-used stainless steel grill, double burners and prep sink, all framed by mature trees. Established garden beds and a history of beekeeping speak to the property's homestead potential, while a detached brick barn-style garage adds excellent workshop and storage space. With a walk-out lower level, a new roof (2024), new furnace and AC (2021), and over six acres to call your own — just minutes from I-79 and the shops of Wexford and Cranberry — this one-of-a-kind property is a rare find.
