About this home
Charming chalet on a stunning wooded acre in a private (NO HOA) community in STR friendly, Penn Forest Township. This cozy three-bedroom, two-bath chalet offers mountain living that is close to a private, spring-fed lake, beach, fishing, hiking, biking, whitewater rafting, skiing and historic downtown Jim Thorpe. It's a perfect home as a small primary, or a fantastic vacation home, vacation rental, or both! As an STR (short-term rental), it could easily pay for itself. The kitchen features granite countertops, stainless-steel appliances, and an eating island ideal for dining or gathering with family and friends. Relax in the great room, with big, bright windows, vaulted ceilings and a stone fireplace. Another bonus, high-efficiency, low ambient, mini split heating and cooling! Don't miss the beauty of every season in this Pocono retreat. Set on more than an acre and surrounded by rhododendrons and dense mountain laurel, this property, originally built in 1974, was gutted and mostly rebuilt in 2024 and 2025, which included new windows, doors, framing, electrical, plumbing, insulation, drywall, patio, siding, roofing, fireplace finishes, and high-efficiency, low ambient, mini split heating and cooling. There was no need to replace the foundation, well or septic. Pleasant Valley West is a private community with a road association--not an HOA--with an annual road maintenance fee of $325. The association maintains the roads, lake, and beach.
