Rare Riverfront Lot – Custom Build Opportunity of a Lifetime – River Forest, Freeport, PA
A once-in-a-generation opportunity: 1.13 acres of waterfront land in the exclusive River Forest community along the Allegheny River — a private neighborhood where land simply doesn't come up for sale. The lot has passed a percolation test (May 2026), confirming septic feasibility, and electricity is already on site — this is one of the last remaining parcels in the community, offering the rare chance to design and build your custom dream home from the ground up.
The lot offers 100 feet of private river frontage with a concrete boat launch and includes aluminum docks, plus water access extending to the nearby Kiskiminetas River confluence. Nestled behind a 300-acre golf course, residents enjoy proximity to a country club and yacht club (membership-based), as well as direct access to the regional rail-trail system via River Forest Drive.
Conveniently located near the Route 28 Expressway, with approximately a 30-minute drive to downtown Pittsburgh and 45 minutes to Cranberry Township — offering the privacy of riverfront living with easy access to the city and northern suburbs.
Buyer will need to install a well, septic system, and propane or geothermal heat source to build.
A true custom build opportunity of a lifetime, in one of the region's most private and amenity-rich riverfront communities.
