Remarks and Miscellaneous

Public Remarks: LEGACY IN HONESDALE! Some homes are built. Others are curated over a lifetime. Lovingly owned and meticulously maintained by the same family since 1966, this exceptional hilltop ranch is a rare opportunity to own a home where every improvement reflects decades of pride of ownership. Perched high above Honesdale, the setting is spectacular, offering panoramic views that stretch for miles. Designed for effortless main-level living, this sprawling ranch features 3 bedrooms, 3 baths, and an abundance of beautifully designed living space. The inviting living room is perfect for gathering, while the stunning window-lined den brings the outdoors in. At the heart of the home is a chef's kitchen with dramatic counter-to-ceiling wraparound windows that frame breathtaking views, making everyday cooking feel extraordinary. Throughout the home, timeless style meets modern appreciation for classic design. Elegant wallpaper--back in style for all the right reasons--adds warmth, sophistication, and character, creating spaces that feel both chic and enduring. Step outside to an expansive rear deck built for entertaining, summer barbecues, or simply soaking in the incredible scenery. A charming gazebo, finished shed perfect for hobbies or a workshop, and mature landscaping planted by the owners shortly after purchasing the property complete this remarkable outdoor retreat. The location is just as impressive. Minutes from downtown Honesdale, Wayne Memorial Hospital, shopping, restaurants, Walmart Supercenter, and The Home Depot, yet tucked away on a hilltop where you'll feel miles from it all. This isn't just another ranch--it's a home that's been thoughtfully loved for nearly 60 years, offering timeless design, incredible space, unforgettable views, and a setting that's impossible to duplicate. Properties like this rarely become available. Don't miss your chance to make its next chapter your own.
Inclusions: Some furniture may need to stay to make it easier for the seller due to the situation of downsizing. Thank you and the buyers for understanding.
