Restmeadow Manor

Just under an hour’s drive from the Pocono mountain range – which happens to be a delight for avid hikers and rafting fanatics alike – this home can be found on a sprawling estate in Pennsylvania. This, of course, means you’re pretty much always surrounded by green lawn, native foliage, ponds and streams, and one of those very ponds sets the scene perfectly for a group picnic or a retreat whenever you want to breakaway with a book for an hour or two.

Another highlight of this home is the freestanding barn a stone's throw from the farmhouse. Used for weddings, birthdays, or any other celebratory group gatherings, it can be dressed up for the big event and is a fantastic use of space. The farmhouse itself lends itself more to dinner parties and if you’re lucky enough to have a pianist in the family, they might even take to providing some after-dinner entertainment.

Explore the halls of this large home admiring the mix of rustic and classy elements and seeing if you can spot all the touches that pay homage to the glorious Pocono surroundings. Outside you’ll find a trampoline and volleyball net, but it’s the fire pit that promises late nights roasting marshmallows and staring up at the gorgeously bright night sky.
