Build your dream home on this beautiful 2.1-acre property in desirable Penn Township, Westmoreland County! Offering a wooded setting, public water availability, and Mixed Density Residential (MDR) zoning, this property presents an excellent opportunity for a custom home in a peaceful setting with convenient access to the surrounding area.
The MDR zoning district allows a variety of residential uses, including single-family detached homes, duplexes, triplexes, and quadplexes, along with a range of professional, personal-service, recreational, and other community-oriented uses. For a buyer focused on building a single-family home, the zoning provides a strong foundation for residential development.
Public water is available through the Westmoreland County Municipal Authority. Public sewer is not currently available, so on-lot septic will be required. Any future building or subdivision plans will need to satisfy the township's sewage requirements, including appropriate soil/perc testing and septic reserve area.
At approximately 2.1 acres, the property also offers interesting possibilities for future development. While subdivision is theoretically possible, the township has indicated that it could be challenging in practice because each proposed lot must meet applicable zoning, frontage, access, and septic requirements. Buyers interested in subdivision should have a professional surveyor review the property and applicable regulations before proceeding.
