Pike County PA
One of the reasons people are drawn to Pike County is the woods. Restless with the hustle and bustle of more suburban and urban areas, people long for a place to escape and enjoy the relaxation that only comes from living in the woods.
Pike County has thousands of acres of unspoiled state forest and state game lands, in addition to several lakes for fishing and boating activities. In spite of being one of the fastest growing counties in the Northeast United States, Pike County has been able to maintain that wild, untamed, natural atmosphere that many hunger to experience.
It’s a lifestyle that is not suited to everyone – if you want to have tons of shopping within a 10 minute drive, chances are Pike County is not for you (unless you settle in Milford or the Matamoras area). Many businesses are going to be 15 -20 minutes or more away. To locals like me, anything under a 45 minute drive is “nearby.” 
I frequently drive 40 minutes to shop in Scranton, or 30 minutes to hit the stores in Honesdale, if nearby Hawley doesn’t have what I want. But I like it that way – I don’t want to live in the midst of urban sprawl. I want to see the wildlife, the trees; I want to catch the aroma of pine and savor the damp smell of the earth after a thunderstorm…does this sound like a lifestyle you would enjoy?
Then let me introduce you to this modest ranch style home in the heart of Pike County – in Greeley, PA. Situated on
Home For Sale on Over An Acre
over an acre and a half, it’s perfect for someone who wants privacy but not isolation. There’s a convenience store five minutes down the road which will offer all your basic groceries, but more serious shopping is available within 20 – 25 minutes.
The location of this home is what makes it so special – have you wanted to start a garden? Grow your own grapes? Harvest your own berries and plums? This is the place for you. Do you imagine the joyous sounds of children playing barefoot in the yard, flying through the air on a tire swing, or roasting hot dogs over an open fire?
Would you like to have hummingbirds and robins, squirrels, rabbits, and chipmunks visit you? There will be deer roaming by, looking for tender green grass to graze…
If this sounds like Utopia for you, don’t waste any more time. You should make your move – and start enjoying the lifestyle you’ve been yearning for. Wallenpaupack School District.
