A long-desired retirement home in the Northern Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania, this voluminous 1.5 story house provides spectacular sweeping views of the rolling rural terrain. 

The home has distinct public and private zones.  The first level, with its soaring cathedral ceilings, centers around the open-plan living/dining/kitchen where the owners' extended family can comfortably gather.  A guest bedroom, office, large laundry/mud room, and bathroom complete the first floor's private spaces.

The second level, comprising the entire back half of the home, is a bright, airy, and private bedroom suite for the owners.  The multi-story front window wall ensures the same amazing views from the upstairs suite as you get in the living room.

A modern fireplace, locally-sourced bluestone radiant flooring, and generous deck add a cozy elegance to the home, which should be enjoyed by the family for generations to come.
