Some people spend their whole lives searching for a place that feels like it was built just for them. Others turn down a private paved driveway in Perry County, Pennsylvania, and stop searching forever.
Welcome to 9 Irish Road.
From the moment the treeline parts and this stunning log home comes into view, perched above a beautifully manicured front lawn with 30 acres of timberland stretching out behind it, you will feel something shift. This is not a listing. This is a calling.
Built in 2005 with a true log home construction, this 3-bedroom, 3-full-bath home is the kind of place that outdoor dreamers sketch on napkins and never believe they will actually find. But here it is. Real, ready, and waiting.
Step through the door and the great room takes your breath away. A soaring two-story stacked stone, wood burning fireplace anchors the space with raw, rugged elegance. A balcony overlooks it all from above. Pella wood-trimmed windows with wide sills and wood blinds frame the surrounding woods like living artwork. Four heat zones, a professionally installed fire sprinkler system, and a brand new HVAC heat pump with backup oil heat installed March 2026 ensure that comfort is never a question, no matter the season.
The kitchen stretches generously, ready for the kind of meals that follow long days in the field. The primary bedroom upstairs is private and secluded to act as it's own little true retreat. The fully finished walkout basement adds a third full bath and even more living space, with an Easy Breeze air quality system keeping the lower level fresh and comfortable year-round.
Outside, a three-season screened porch and custom patio wrap the home, and the in-ground pool invites you to slow down and breathe. The seller is even offering a $5,000 credit at closing toward a brand new pool liner, so you can dive in from day one without lifting a finger.
Now let us talk about the land, because the land is the story.
Thirty acres of rolling, wooded Perry County ground with a trail system already cut and ready for hiking, ATV riding, horseback riding, or still hunting at first light. Whitetail deer, wild turkey, and the occasional black bear all call this property home, and the small natural pasture tucked into the heart of the timber is primed to become a premier food plot for any serious deer manager. This is ground that will produce for decades.
The newer barn features three horse stalls with a tack room, purpose-built for the equestrian lifestyle. An electric fence is already on site for anyone bringing livestock or horses. The infrastructure is in place. All you need to bring is the animals.
The timber on this property carries its own future value, with healthy oak and some pine throughout. This is not just land. This is an asset.
Perry County is one of Pennsylvania's best kept secrets, wild enough to feel like an escape, yet close enough to Harrisburg, Route I-81, and Route 15 to keep life connected. West Perry School District serves the area, and the community carries the kind of quiet pride that is increasingly hard to find.
Properties like 9 Irish Road do not come available often. When they do, the people who hesitate are the ones who spend the next decade wishing they had not.
Your next chapter starts here. All thirty acres of it.
