Property Description
"THE COTTAGE!" on 4.2 woodland acres along Tucquan Creek abutting the pristine Tucquan Glen Nature Preserve in historic Lancaster County, PA. Built in 2014, it is currently used as a turn-key vacation rental by owner, VRBO, (see docs for annual gross income etc.) With its clever design using high end materials, it comfortably includes 3 bedrooms (plus a 9'x4.5' loft), a full bath, galley kitchen and living area in under a 1000 SF open floor plan. Visualize high ceilings, recessed lights, Bose speakers, built-in lighted accent shelves and a functioning old fashioned stove to complete the rustic feel with a modern twist with a sense of order. Comfortable and timeless. Nearby large farm tracts along with contiguous Conservancy lands help insulate the cottage from future urban development. (See maps in documents). Just outside the door is a large patio of massive flagstones enabling multiple seating areas and outdoor dining. There is no bad view here. Enhancing this space is a spring-fed fish pond, a foot bridge over the creek and nearby a fire circle for evenings of roasting marsh mellows and sharing tall tales in this woodland paradise. The lawn slopes down behind the 1840 house to the private area along the Tucquan Creek's big bend coursing to supply the nature preserve and then on its path to the Susquehanna River. The c. 1840 main house is unoccupied and currently used for furniture and construction tools storage. It is a frame 4 bedroom colonial once an elegant landmark at Erb's Mill. Also unique is the massive barn with loft that is just off the state road accessed by a concrete bridge and asphalt skirt. It has its own 200 amp service and internet accessibility. The back portion of the barn has a newer poured concrete pad with radiant-heat tubing - ready to go. The potential here is endless: boat storage, work shop, garage space and more. Future uses could be single-floor living, downsizing, an outstanding retreat, a family compound. This property has so many options. It is truly a one-of-a-kind rare find. And, of course, there is nothing like Tucquan. Located along premium Mid-Atlantic hiking trails and only a few miles to public boat launches. Commutes to Philadelphia (1 2/3 hours), Baltimore (1 hr 50 min), Washington DC (2 hrs 40 min), NYC (3.5 hrs). Google: VRBO 583901
