This 0.29-acre lot at 139 Ridge Drive passed its perc test, so the ground has been shown to take a septic system. That’s the step most likely to stop a build in the Poconos, and it’s done. The lot is about as flat as Pocono ground gets: the whole parcel varies less than 7 feet in elevation, with an average slope of 3% per county data. There’s no flood zone and no wetlands. It’s wooded and sits on a community road inside the gated Pocono Springs community, near Crystal Lake. There’s no public water or sewer in Pocono Springs, so a home here needs a drilled well and an on-lot septic system. Buyer to confirm the septic permit with the township sewage enforcement officer.
