Description
Appraised at $385,000 in 2024, this home is now priced below market with recent upgrades and qualifies for FHA, USDA, and VA financing. Tucked deep in the quiet woods of Locke Valley, just outside Shade Gap, this log cabin feels like a place you stumble upon once and never forget. A place where life slows down, the noise fades away, and every season brings something beautiful. Whether you are searching for a peaceful full-time residence or a true home away from home near Raystown Lake, this property offers the kind of setting that feeds your soul. Surrounded by mature hardwoods and gentle mountain views, the setting is calm and private, with minimal traffic, no streetlights, and neighbors who value the same peace and quiet. At night, the sky opens up with stars. In the morning, the woods come alive with birdsong and rustling leaves. It is the kind of quiet you feel, not just hear. Step inside and the cabin instantly wraps you in warmth. Natural wood finishes, soaring cathedral ceilings, and the comforting presence of the wood stove create a space that feels welcoming and lived in, not staged. The main level offers two bedrooms, a full bath, and a spacious kitchen with recently added cabinetry that blends perfectly with the character of the home. The living room flows effortlessly onto the wraparound porch, an ideal place for morning coffee, quiet reflection, or long evenings watching the light fade through the trees. The walk-out basement provides flexible finished space for entertaining, hosting guests or simply relaxing, while the unfinished area offers ample storage, laundry space, and room to expand. A newly installed mini split on the second floor adds comfort through every season. Outside, the property truly shines. An Amish-built two-story hemlock barn with a lean-to, a metal utility shed, and a newly installed RV pad with 50-amp hookup create endless possibilities for hobbies, storage, animals or visiting friends and family. A new playset pad adds a thoughtful touch for kids and grandkids, making this a place where memories are made. The land is level to gently sloping, partially fenced, and bordered by woods that are home to deer, turkey, and the occasional black bear. With no zoning restrictions, you have the freedom to shape the property to fit your vision, whether that means gardening, homesteading, animals, or simply leaving it untouched and enjoying nature as it is. Located about 40 minutes from Raystown Lake, this home is perfectly positioned for boating, fishing, hiking and weekend adventures, while still offering total privacy when you return home. It is also just minutes from the historic East Broad Top Railroad and within reasonable reach of Harrisburg, State College, and Lancaster. The sellers say what they will miss most is the peace. The kind of peace that is hard to describe until you experience it yourself. Quiet nights, slow mornings, and the feeling that you are exactly where you are meant to be. Shown by appointment only. Come walk the property, sit on the porch, and see if this is the place you have been searching for all along.
