SERENE VIEWS This is a beautiful and well-maintained home with serene views of the Susquehanna River. The scene includes the mouth of Loyalsock Creek, bringing amazing varieties of wildlife, including eagles, herons, and ducks, year-round. All of the flora and fauna photos in this listing were taken while on this property. Next to a state forest and the Montoursville water preserve, the neighborhood is along an exclusive mile of the river - a dead-end road with limited capacity for more construction. This property has a prime view from a massive wraparound deck. In any season, the views are magnificent. (See photos.) The front yard is a mini-arboretum, with more than 40 trees and shrubs, including a Washington Hawthorne, Eastern Redbud, White Pine, Red Maple, Colorado Blue Spruce, Bald Cypress, two Khousa Dogwoods, 17 Arborvitaes, two False Cypresses, five Rose Bushes, Blue Moss Cypress, five Clematis, six Rhododendrons, and two Hydrangeas. The two first-floor bedrooms (BR 3 and 4 in photos) have their own French-door entrances. Two large windows are in each room. A full bath is on the main floor, and two hall closets for ample storage. The open living room/kitchen features a kitchen island — a great gathering space for family and friends. Perfect for entertaining, it’s like a luxury clubhouse with built-in storage, a mini-bar, double French doors, and large windows. The entire house is bright, warm, and easy to navigate. The large master bedroom on the second floor (BR No. 1) also offers fabulous views of the river and abundant wildlife. You’ll wake up each morning to fabulous river views through the large window. Early risers could spot deer, eagles, ospreys, and even the occasional river otter. The large bathroom features a vessel vanity, shower/tub combo with a rain shower head and removable sprayer, and a large linen closet. Floors are bamboo with limestone backing, making them waterproof. The counter is Red Eucalyptus sealed with eight coats of Spar Varnish. The smaller bedroom upstairs (BR 2) is perfect as a child’s nursery, hobby room, or an easy conversion into a huge walk-in closet! The full basement features a two-car garage and workshop with built-in shelving units — a dream come true for crafts or hobbies. Two long electrified crawl spaces on the second floor provide even more storage. A detached shed houses the lawn equipment, with additional shelves for hoses, fertilizer, garden tools, etc. The house has a well with fresh, cold, clean water. A water softener handles any minerals, making every shower a soft, sudsy experience. A new ductless mini-split system provides economical heating AND cooling. Five indoor units are independently controlled and can be programmed for timed operation, as well as motion sensors that react when someone enters the room. The result: Lower electric costs, yet great comfort year-around. All five mini-split units are connected by hidden refrigerant lines to a single outdoor condenser, so there’s no bulky ductwork to trap mold and dust. There’s even baseboard heat for backup, but it’s a rare day that it’s needed. The large wrap-around deck has plenty of space for dining and leisurely seating. It’s a perfect place to set up the telescope, too! A front patio, enclosed by a white cottage-style fence, has space for a patio furniture set. It’s perfect for watching wildlife and birds in the day and stargazing at night. The house is steps from the West Branch of the Susquehanna River, directly across from the mouth of the Loyalsock Creek. Yet, it is NOT in a flood zone! The neighborhood is safe and beautiful, beloved by its long-term residents.
