491 Stony Mountain Rd, Penn Forest Twp, PA 18229

Description

A stone-faced fireplace, a wooded acre, and room to spread out - all on one living level. Welcome to 491 Stony Mountain Road, a three-bedroom, two-bath ranch in Hickory Run Forest where refreshed interiors meet a covered front porch, rear deck, and patio. The living room centers on a propane fireplace framed in stone, with wood-look flooring carrying into the adjoining dining area. Sliding glass doors open to the rear deck, connecting the main living spaces to the outdoors. In the kitchen, white cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances create a crisp, coordinated finish. Counters and cabinetry line both sides, while a window above the sink looks out over the rear yard. A split-bedroom layout gives the primary suite its own side of the home. The bedroom features a ceiling fan and walk-in closet, and the private bath includes tile flooring, a wide vanity, a separate walk-in shower, and a bathtub. Two additional bedrooms and a second full bath complete the main level. New flooring and carpeting, fresh paint, and deck repairs completed in September 2026 bring a refreshed feel throughout, complemented by new sidewalks installed in July 2026. Central air conditioning and electric heat-pump heating serve the main living level, with the propane fireplace adding warmth to the living room. Outside, approximately one acre balances open lawn with a wooded backdrop. Start the day on the covered front porch, bring dinner onto the rear deck, or arrange a seating area on the adjoining patio. The paved driveway leads to an attached two-car garage with side-entry doors and electric openers. Below, a full unfinished basement accessed by interior stairs offers substantial storage and space to consider future plans, subject to applicable permits and approvals. The basement is unheated and excluded from finished living area. Hickory Run Forest extends the setting with a community lake, walking trail, recreation area, and clubhouse available by reservation. Amenities are subject to association rules and applicable fees; the community lake does not permit swimming. Annual HOA dues are $200 for 2026. Located in Penn Forest Township with a Jim Thorpe mailing address, the home offers a base for exploring historic Jim Thorpe and Hickory Run State Park’s trails and distinctive Boulder Field. A practical ranch layout, refreshed finishes, and inviting outdoor spaces give this home a sense of ease - from the front porch to the trees beyond the deck.
