0.42 ACRES OF LAND FOR SALE IN WAYNE COUNTY, PA | GATED POCONO SPRINGS, OWNER FINANCING
A large boulder sits on part of this 0.42-acre lot, and the ground climbs about 39 feet from the low corner to the high one. It's a long, narrow wooded lot with frontage on paved Fountain Drive, near the front of Pocono Springs Estates and about half a mile from the association office, lake, pool and clubhouse.
What you should know up front: the slope averages about 12.5%, and parts of the lot reach 38%, so where you could put a driveway, septic system or cabin depends on the terrain. There's no public water or sewer, so any home will need a private well and septic. A perc test hasn't been done yet. The Sterling Township Sewage Enforcement Officer runs it, and approval isn't guaranteed, so get that answered before you buy. Pocono Springs also charges yearly association dues for as long as you own the lot. Call the Civic Association at (570) 676-9259 for the current amount and building rules.
