This three-bedroom, two-bath home on a wooded, level lot is located blocks from the primary amenities in Towamensing Trails. The current owners have maintained and cared for this home but are ready for another home in the community. The first floor offers an open-concept main living area with new flooring. The kitchen has some newer appliances and provides access to the screened-in porch, which overlooks the backyard and offers a great place to enjoy a meal, read a book, or sit back and enjoy the local fauna walking through the backyard. The first-floor bedroom is currently used as a den and has a nice-sized attached bath. A large laundry room at the rear of the garage offers a large storage closet. The upper level has two nicely sized secondary bedrooms, a full bath, and a loft. The third bedroom has direct access to the hall bathroom. Significant improvements and updates to the home include a proper vapor barrier in 2018, a total rework of home plumbing pipes with Pex in 2018, a whole house water filter, and a reverse osmosis filter in 2018. In May 2020, a new shed was installed in the rear yard, and in June 2020, a whole roof replacement with two venting skylights was completed. In March 2022, new laminate flooring was installed in the first floor's kitchen, dining, and living room areas. In June 2024, the water heater was replaced, and in September 2024, an Iron/Sulfur filtration filter was incorporated into the water treatment system. The community was established in the 1970s. It comprises second homes, primary homes, and some vacation rentals. The primary summer amenities include a beach and community pool open from Memorial Day to Labor Day. The initial opening of the pool and lake is on weekends until Father’s Day weekend when it switches to daily opening until Labor Day, weather permitting.

Any equipment used on the lake does require annual registration. Under community rules, insured and registered golf carts and ATVs are welcome, and the registrations are renewed annually. A community clubhouse operated as a separate entity/private club serves food and alcohol. You must be a member to purchase alcohol. A trash drop-off area is located within the community for convenience. Easy access to the PA Turnpike NE Extension on Rt 903 for points North and South, and Interstate 80 is located within 20-25 minutes for points east or via the Turnpike.
