Lot #6 Reed Rd Alum Bank, PA 15521

Description
Buildable land looks affordable until the site work starts. A well, a perc test, and a septic system can add significant cost and months of uncertainty before construction begins. This lot near Alum Bank is already past that stage.
Public water and sewer are on site, and electricity is close by. There is no well to drill, no perc test to schedule, and no septic system to design or install. That means less guesswork and a faster start.
The ground is open and level. There is no clearing, no heavy excavation, and no hillside to work against. Builders will appreciate how straightforward the site prep is, and the layout of the home is flexible. The lot suits a modular or stick-built home, a ranch, a starter home for a young family, or a low-maintenance place to settle into retirement. There is still space for a yard, a garden, a patio, and a detached garage or shed.
Let's talk about how buyers are likely to see the location. Alum Bank offers small-town living in a peaceful rural setting. Each July the community hosts the Alum Bank Classic Weekend, a four-day event with a car show, tractor and truck pulls, a fire company parade, live music, and carnival rides. The lot is in the Chestnut Ridge School District. The borough of Bedford is about 14 miles away for shopping, dining, and services, and Johnstown is about 27 miles away.
Outdoor recreation is a major draw in this region. Shawnee State Park is roughly 10 miles out, with a large lake, a beach, boating, fishing, and camping. Blue Knob State Park offers skiing in winter and hiking the rest of the year. Gallitzin State Forest and surrounding State Game Lands provide thousands of acres for hunting and exploring, and local trout streams are popular with anglers. The Lincoln Highway corridor, Old Bedford Village, Gravity Hill, and the Omni Bedford Springs Resort are all an easy drive. The Pennsylvania Turnpike and Interstate 99 connect to Altoona, Pittsburgh, and the rest of the region.
Level, open lots with public utilities in place are limited in this part of Pennsylvania. Buyers should confirm utility tap and connection fees. This listing is private and shown by scheduled appointments only. Contact us today to schedule yours.
