About this home

5+ Private Acres - In-Ground Pool - Stone Home - Endless Potential Bring your vision to this one-of-a-kind property in Dover, Pennsylvania. Set on approximately 5.12 private acres surrounded by mature trees, 175 Pickett Road offers something increasingly difficult to find: space, privacy, character, and the opportunity to create a home that is truly your own. This spacious 4-bedroom, 2 1/2-bath stone home offers approximately 2,860 square feet of living space, generous rooms, flexible living areas, and a setting that feels worlds away from the typical neighborhood property. Built in 1958, the home has the character and craftsmanship of an established property while offering the next owner an exciting opportunity to renovate, refresh, and personalize it for today's lifestyle. A Property With Room to Dream From the moment you arrive, the property makes an impression. A long, distinctive stone walkway winds through the lawn toward the home, while mature trees and wooded surroundings create a peaceful, private atmosphere. With more than five acres, there is room to garden, entertain, enjoy outdoor hobbies, create additional recreational spaces, or simply appreciate having breathing room between you and the rest of the world. The property may also accommodate up to two horses, offering additional possibilities for buyers dreaming of a small hobby farm or private country retreat. Your Own Backyard Escape One of the standout features is the private in-ground swimming pool. Surrounded by a large pool deck and tucked into the property's natural surroundings, this space has tremendous potential to become a beautiful outdoor entertaining area. Imagine summer cookouts, family gatherings, quiet mornings beside the water, or transforming the pool area into your own private resort-style retreat. Beyond the pool, the acreage opens into beautiful mature woods and green space - ideal for anyone who appreciates nature, wildlife, gardening, outdoor recreation, or simply peace and privacy. Spacious Interior With Flexible Living Options Inside, the home offers large rooms and a traditional layout with plenty of opportunities for reimagining the space. The kitchen and surrounding cabinetry provide a substantial footprint for renovation. Rather than paying a premium for someone else's design choices, the next owner has the opportunity to create the kitchen they actually want. The home also features a second kitchen, providing valuable flexibility for entertaining, baking, canning, meal preparation, crafting, multigenerational living, or additional household workspace. A flexible first-floor living area provides even more possibilities and could function as a primary suite, guest quarters, family room, home office, creative studio, or multigenerational living space. Additional features include hardwood flooring, fireplaces, a wood-burning stove, pantry space, laundry/mudroom functionality, central air, and attached and detached garage/parking options. Renovate It. Reimagine It. Make It Yours. This is not a cookie-cutter house - and that is exactly the opportunity. The home is ready for a buyer who can see beyond cosmetic updates and recognize the value of the land, square footage, stone construction, private pool, flexible floor plan, mature landscape, and unique setting. Modernize the kitchen. Refresh the cabinetry and bathrooms. Create a stunning outdoor entertaining area around the pool. Transform the acreage into gardens, recreation areas, or a hobby-farm setting. Restore the home's original character or give it an entirely new personality. The canvas is already here. What you create with it is up to you. 175 Pickett Road isn't looking for someone who wants ordinary. It's waiting for someone with vision.
