Serenity, History, Comfort and Style combine with deeded access to the Lackawaxen River in the Delaware Highlands region of the beautiful Pocono Mountains., welcoming the whole family! The grand estate with 2 elegant homes on 6 acres is only minutes to Big Bear Ski and Lake Wallenpaupack and just 2+ hours to NYC & Philadelphia. The main house was Lock House #21, originally built in 1829 as a boarding house. It is lovingly restored and renovated resulting in the perfect blend of meaningful history and modern aesthetics. The front veranda spans the entire length of home, as it should. Relax here. This exquisite 5 Bedroom, 2.5 Bath 2 story home boasts the old charm with 10' high ceilings, amazing trim work and built-ins and wide-plank floors. The original antique fireplace mantels remainin the East Parlor and Dining Room and now service the brand new propane heat system with Nest controls. Huge eat-in Kitchen is totally redone with better-than-ever country white cabinetry, top-of-the-line Stainless Steel Appliances and honed Granite countertops.The Family room is flanked on each side with 8'tall French door window walls, both leading to PA Bluestone slab patios. So much natural light from skylites atop the cathedral ceilings and a wood burning fireplace complete the cozy here. You may choose to take the adjacent "back" staircase to the 4 bedrooms upstairs including a Master Bath with a new claw-foot tub and walk-in closet. Crystal chandeliers are everywhere. There's the bonus of a whole-house generator. Love living here, Very comfortably. The detached 1380 sq.ft. Guest House is completely modernized as a magnificent 1 Bedroom, 1.5 Bath residence with a loft and exotic wood floors, extensive built-ins and imported hand-carved doors. The open concept living room and dining rooms share a two sided wood burning fireplace. Bring your guests or extended family here. They won't want to leave. Both homes have Central Air Conditioning. The 5.94 acre offering includes a huge cedar barn, a detached garage with a teak wall facing gardens, a series of ponds and extensive lawns, fruit and nut trees, stone walls and firepit and an original snubbing post. Meditate here. You'll find peace-of-mind. 2 lots in Field Bend with direct River access come, too. Fish here. It doesn't get better than this!
