Residential Land for Sale in Alum Bank, Pennsylvania

The hard part of building in the country usually isn't the house. It's getting water, sewer, and power to the site. On this lot in Alum Bank, electric, water, and sewer are all available, and there's a paved road out front. That leaves you to worry about the part that matters, which is the house itself. The ground is open grass, flat in some places and gently sloping in others. Put the house, garage, or a shop on the flat ground where site prep is easy. Or use the slope for a walkout basement and a better look out over the farm country around you. There are no trees to clear, so the dozer work stays light and you can get right to it. Once the house is up, there's plenty of room left for a lawn, a garden, some fruit trees, or a swing set for the kids. It's a nice size. Big enough that the neighbors aren't right on top of you and there's room for a detached shop or pole building. Small enough that you're not spending every Saturday on a mower. Sit on the porch in the evening and you'll likely see deer working the field edges. The paved road means no lane to maintain, no trouble in winter, and no problem getting a concrete truck or a load of lumber in. Alum Bank is a small farm town, and the lot is in the Chestnut Ridge School District. Shawnee State Park and its lake are a short drive for fishing, boating, and swimming. Blue Knob State Park and Blue Knob All Seasons Resort have hiking, camping, skiing, and golf. Bedford has the shopping, restaurants, the Omni Bedford Springs, Old Bedford Village, and the Turnpike, so getting to Pittsburgh, Johnstown, or Altoona isn't a chore. The area is also known for good deer and turkey hunting, trout streams, and public land close by. Whether it's a first house, a place to retire, or a home base in the mountains, this lot is a clean start. Utilities available and a paved road out front don't come together often on rural ground around here. The listing is private and shown by scheduled appointments only.
