Welcome home to the picturesque, private community of Lakeview Estates in the Poconos! Situated on a rustic, wooded double lot totaling a generous 1.29 acres, this beautiful 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home seamlessly blends cozy cabin elements with modern living. Step inside to a dramatic, vaulted living room featuring a towering floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. An open staircase leads to a spacious second-story loft overlooking the main living and dining spaces. The main floor boasts a beautiful kitchen with tiered counter seating, a formal dining area, a convenient half bathroom, and two bedrooms--including the spacious primary en-suite and a guest room. Upstairs, you will find two more bedrooms and a second full hallway bathroom. Don't miss the added-value areas of the home, including an attached, oversized one-car garage with extra length for a workstation. Outdoor living is a dream here: relax on the expansive front porch, or head to the rear screened-in porch featuring exposed wood beams, a ceiling fan, and panoramic forest views. The screened porch connects seamlessly to an open-air grilling deck and a nice yard with a partially fenced area on the side of the home. Unlike high-traffic developments, Lakeview Estates is a quiet enclave backing up to 40,000+ acres of State Forest, with trails connecting to Gouldsboro and Tobyhanna State Parks. Enjoy unparalleled amenities including a community lodge, beach, playground, basketball and tennis courts, and winter toboggan trails! The peaceful, non-powerboat 150-acre Lake Watawga is perfect for catch-and-release fishing, kayaking, and swimming. Tucked away yet highly accessible, you are minutes from Route 380 (just 2 hours to NYC & Philly), 25 minutes to Scranton, and a half-hour from premier Pocono skiing, water parks, and golf.
