148 Forest Ln, Elizabethtown, PA 17022
What's special
Welcome to 148 Forest Lane, a breathtaking 10.9-acre estate private sanctuary where peaceful tranquility meets thoughtful design. Approached by a private, tree-lined drive, this custom home is perfectly situated on a partially wooded lot, offering breathtaking panoramic views of the valley and abundant with game life including deer, turkeys, foxes and more. Step inside to discover a bright and inviting interior, where large pane windows welcome natural light throughout the open, flowing layout, perfect for both lively entertaining and relaxing nights in. The heart of the main level is the chef's kitchen, featuring a gas cooktop, stainless steel appliances, a stylish tile backsplash, and a spacious island with ample prep space and cabinet storage. A custom accordion style door off the kitchen opens seamlessly to the massive deck, effortlessly blending indoor and outdoor living. There is also a design elevator shaft for future elevator use. The second floor boasts three generous bedrooms, including an expansive primary suite with a luxuriously appointed full bathroom. The fully finished basement adds remarkable versatility, offering an additional bedroom, an executive home office, a kitchenette, and a full bathroom. This property truly stands out with its detached utility heated 3300+ outbuilding. This impressive space features a custom indoor pickleball court with fully surrounding doors that lift to bring the outdoors in, creating the feel of an outdoor court. The building also includes a first-floor lounge perfect for prepping and hosting gatherings, a spacious second-floor game-room with room for everyone, and a completely separated standalone 1-bedroom apartment with a full kitchen, living room, one spacious bedroom, and a full bathroom with a stall shower. Plenty of additional extra storage and could also be used to store up to a 45 foot motor home or storage for a car collection. Truly a one-of-a-kind retreat with easy access to everything you need—this is the one! Between the second building and the apartment around back, there's a versatile rentable space with strong income potential, perfect for storing large motorhomes, boats, or classic cars, and flexible space for pickleball, workshops, or large gatherings. These heated areas are ideal for protecting motorhomes and very large boats. As a bonus, the apartment adds even more potential, with estimated rental income ranging from about $2,100 per month ($25,200/year) on the low end to $3,000 per month ($36,000/year) on the high end, which offers nice income that could help offset ownership costs.
