Read this first: Wayne County classifies this 0.79-acre lot as sewage denied. There's no public sewer in Pocono Springs Estates, so a house or cabin can't be built here unless a septic permit is approved in the future, and that isn't guaranteed. This is a wooded corner lot that gives you ownership inside a gated, guarded community, not a homesite. What you do get: 34,238 square feet at the corner of Meadow Drive and Hemlock Way, with frontage on both roads. County parcel data shows no flood zone and no mapped wetland, with ground that drops about 23 feet across the lot. Lot owners have access to the community lake, pool, clubhouse and jogging path. The association office is under a mile away. Pocono Springs charges yearly association dues for as long as you own the lot, whether or not you build. Call the Civic Association at (570) 676-9259 for the current amount and what owners can and can't do on a vacant lot. For the septic history, the Sterling Township Sewage Enforcement Officer is the right call. What's nearby (straight-line distances): • Gouldsboro State Park, about 5.3 miles.
