Property Description

Secluded log cabin retreat on 6.08 wooded acres in Hickory Run Forest, just minutes from downtown Jim Thorpe and the PA Turnpike. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home showcases timeless craftsmanship with hand-hewn log construction, vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, tongue-and-groove pine walls, and a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. A loft overlooks the great room, offering flexible space for guests, a home office, or a third sleeping area. The walk-out basement with propane fireplace provides additional utility, recreation, or storage. The property's true highlight is the 60x40 Amish-built detached garage/workshop, valued at over $200K. Built with extraordinary craftsmanship, it features three oversized bays, full concrete flooring, built-in workbenches, kitchenette, utility sink, professional lighting, and a finished lofted entertainment space. This versatile structure is ideal for contractors, car enthusiasts, collectors, or creative pursuits. Adding to the value, Hickory Run Forest permits short-term rentals (STRs), with community approval and subject to a 10% cap—an exceptional opportunity for those seeking investment potential alongside personal use. With 11 additional parcels included in the sale, this property ensures privacy, future flexibility, and long-term appeal. Whether a full-time residence, weekend retreat, or income-producing asset, 15 Locust Drive represents the very best of log cabin living in the Pocono Mountains.
