    Parcel is zoned S-1 (Special Residential District). This rare opportunity to own 6.2 private, wooded acres in the highly sought-after Pine-Richland School District. Conveniently situated just minutes from I-79, Wexford and Cranberry Township, this expansive parcel combines the privacy and natural beauty of a wooded setting with convenient access to major roads, shopping, dining and everyday amenities. The site offers scale and flexibility rarely found in this area. Parcel sizes of 5+ acres in Pine Twp permit horses, cattle, chickens, etc. Mature trees, established landscaping and a natural setting provide with future use subject to applicable township zoning requirements and utility considerations. The existing structures provide immediate utility while offering flexibility as plans for the property take shape. The cottage-style home, expansive brick patio, established garden beds, walk-out lower level and detached brick barn-style garage add additional functional value to the property. Updates to the existing home - including the roof in 2024 roof and HVAC system in 2021 - provide practical value. The combination of acreage, desirable schools, established neighborhood surroundings and proximity to I-79 makes this an especially compelling parcel for those looking beyond a conventional residential purchase. Mature wooded areas create natural separation and screening while the established garden areas and history of beekeeping demonstrate the land's potential for gardening, recreation and small-scale homesteading. There is room to imagine trails, gardens, outdoor entertaining areas and additional structures or simply preserve a substantial private wooded setting. The size, setting, and location make this property worthy of serious consideration and further inquiry.
