A Hidden Gem in Rapho Township - 8.64 Acres of Organic Paradise Tucked away at the end of a private drive, this 8.64-acre sanctuary is unlike anything else on the market. Secluded yet accessible, this exceptional property has been lovingly maintained and organically cultivated since the 1970s by a master gardener whose vision has transformed it into a living, breathing retreat. The home itself strikes the perfect balance between spacious and cozy, thoughtfully remodeled to preserve its character while adding elegant touches. Soapstone countertops and sink, marble and maplewood work surfaces, propane cooking on a Viking stove, and not one but two Waterford wood stoves create a warm and inviting atmosphere that embraces comfort and style. Step outside and discover the heart of this property: the great outdoors. Lose yourself in the expansive bank barn with endless possibilities. The lower level features a greenhouse for year-round growing, a charming studio/workshop, and a heated rustic party barn space ideal for gatherings. A cozy guest cabin is attached to the end of the barn, perfect for visitors or quiet retreats. Upstairs, there's ample room for equipment storage, creative projects, or even conversion into additional living space. Other highlights include: A detached 3-car garage with an additional bay outfitted as a workshop A custom chicken coop for fresh eggs and country charm A stone firepit for cool evenings under the stars Rolling views of the surrounding preserved farmland and stunning sunsets in every season. The gardens are a masterpiece unto themselves- carefully curated perennial beds and heirloom bulbs burst into bloom throughout the year, offering waves of color and fragrance. With over 50 years of organic stewardship, this land is rich, fertile, and ready for someone new to carry on the legacy. This is more than just a property-it’s a lifestyle, a story, a dream nurtured over decades. Words can’t fully convey the magic here; you must walk it, breathe it, and feel it for yourself. The owner hopes to pass this beloved homestead on to someone who will love it just as deeply as she has.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
