Beautifully updated and decorated, this adorable cape is ready for you to move into and start enjoying the summer months in the Delaware River valley. Make it your weekend escape, or live here year-round, your choice. From the moment you turn off the Delaware Scenic Parkway onto County Rd 31, then take a left and turn up onto Caskey Rd, you’ll know you are close to home. Turn left onto Hawk Ridge Court at the mailboxes, onto an unmade but well-kept road. Pass the nearby neighbors, far enough away that you’ll know you’re not alone in the forest, but have someone nearby. Then you’ll see it, sitting on over 2 acres, surrounded by pole fencing, it’s the quintessential cape in a beautiful spot, it will take your breath away… Pull into the spacious drive, note the 36×30 pole barn with 2 garages. When you step out of your car and walk up to the house, you’ll note there’s a home office separate from the house but attached to the barn, it will make great storage if you don’t plan on doing any work from up here. Step up onto the house-wide rocking chair porch, take it all in as you’ll be spending many an evening out there, listening to the sounds of mother nature as you catch up on the day. Open the front door and step in, there are many wonderful surprises waiting for you.

The soaring ceiling of the main living area features, hardwood floors, a beautiful feature Riverstone fireplace with a hand-hewn wooden mantle. An intriguing gallery overlooks this area and beckons, but let’s take in the main floor before we venture upstairs. The open plan design makes this an appealing space, allowing sunlight from three angles to pour in, lighting up the pristine wood floors. The kitchen has been fully updated and features a center island, pantry, propane gas appliance, lovely granite countertops, and lots of storage. The country theme reminding you that you’re no longer in the city. This home is a place you’ll love to invite friends over for dinner or the weekend. The formal dining room overlooks a deck where you can throw open the doors and take the food outside and dine al fresco. The deck overlooks the sprawling lawn, with a pretty patio, pond, and waterfall below, but let’s carry on exploring the main floor and rest of the house before we venture outside. Two good-sized bedrooms, with a full bathroom complete the main floor, so let’s venture upstairs to the master suite. A private space just for you. With a gallery overlooking the living room below, it makes an ideal den, one where the current owners enjoy watching TV. The bedroom features an unexpectedly large bathroom with a corner tub and separate shower, plus a huge walk-in closet for all your clothes.
But wait, there’s even more to this house which isn’t included in the 1892 sq ft above ground, but you’ll put to good use we’re sure. It’s not a heated finished basement, but there’s plenty of space that the current owners have taken advantage of and put to good use. Check out the pictures to see and then come in person to get the complete experience. There’s a walkout to a screened porch overlooking the Koi pond and patio, it’s under the deck above, and a favorite spot once dinner is over and the sun has gone down. Listen to the peepers calling throughout the forest, there’s barely a sound of humanity elsewhere. Or turn up the volume and dance on the patio, throw some smore’s on the firepit or just breathe in the fresh, clean, night forest air, take in the stars, they’re close enough to touch up here.
