This custom-built secluded retreat is located on 4+ acres at the end of a quiet cul de sac. This home has great bones and was cherished and lovingly maintained by the family. A truly bucolic setting boarded by a 14-acre township-owned historic farm, next to which is 55 acres of trails cared for by the National Lands Trust. In the far end of the property, there is a small pond fed by Crum Creek - inviting to wildlife.
