Tucked into a private mountainside community in Shickshinny, this charming Bavarian Chalet-style retreat delivers the peaceful ''away from it all'' vibe--without sacrificing the practical upgrades you want in a second home or full-time escape. Set on a forward-sloping, cleared lot, the home invites you to live outdoors with a wraparound deck, a detached garage, and plenty of off-street parking for guests, gear, and weekend adventures. Inside, you'll feel instantly at home with the warm wood finishes and soothing natural tones that make every season feel cozy. The open living and dining area is anchored by a gorgeous wood-burning stove with a stone surround--perfect for slow mornings, intimate dinners, and gathering after a day outside. The kitchen is both ample and tasteful, offering great flow for everyday living and entertaining. Two sizable bedrooms and a convenient main-floor laundry room round out the functional layout. Major mechanical updates add peace of mind, including a metal roof, newer water heater, HVAC system, and water filtration system. The unfinished basement offers a workshop, storage, and clean, dry usable space for your needs. Whether you're looking for a quiet primary residence or a nature-forward getaway, this chalet is ideally located near state game lands, hiking, and camping--your mountain escape starts here. All measurements and information is deemed reliable, but not warranted or guaranteed.
