Description
Set along the Bennett Branch in Cameron County, Pennsylvania, this 52± acre property combines a well-equipped home with recreational land in one of the state's most active elk and wildlife corridors. Located at 6452 Low Grade Road near Driftwood, the property offers approximately 4,895 feet of frontage on the stocked Bennett Branch, a designated Pennsylvania Water Trail, along with an extensive trail system throughout the acreage.
The home is a 2.5-story residence of approximately 2,500+ square feet with 4 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, including a walk-in basement. The floor plan is flexible enough to accommodate an in-law suite or guest accommodations, and it offers potential as a bed and breakfast or vacation rental, subject to local regulations. Comfort features include a heat pump with propane backup heat, central air conditioning, and a standby generator for uninterrupted power during outages.
Outbuildings include a 2.5-car insulated garage with a wood-burning stove and a 24-foot by 26-foot implement and storage building with a 12-foot overhead door, suited for tractors, ATVs, campers, or other equipment.
Wildlife presence on this tract is well documented. The property sits within Pennsylvania Elk Management Zone 306 and Wildlife Management Unit 2G, with a history of elk, deer, turkey, and other species passing through the yard and surrounding woods. Landowners have found naturally shed elk antlers on the property in multiple years. Black bears, bobcats, coyotes, and a wide range of birds, including swallows, grosbeaks, Baltimore orioles, bluebirds, and hummingbirds, are also regular visitors, and milkweed on the property has supported monarch butterfly activity. An eight-camera video surveillance system covers the home and grounds, providing both security and a way to observe wildlife activity from inside the house.
Recreational opportunities extend well beyond the property line. Since the Bennett Branch is a designated Pennsylvania Water Trail, owners can put in a kayak directly on the property for a short float or continue downstream for a longer trip. Across the water lies the Quehanna Wild Area, a 50,000± acre tract jointly managed by the Elk and Moshannon State Forest districts, with miles of additional trails for hiking and exploring. On the property itself, the trail network supports hiking, ATV riding, wildlife viewing, and hunting.
Privacy is a defining feature of this tract, with no adjacent development crowding the property, while still maintaining year-round road access via Low Grade Road. The combination of acreage, water frontage, documented wildlife activity, and a move-in-ready home makes this property well suited for a private retreat, a hunting camp, a vacation home, or income-producing rental use where permitted by local regulations. It is a fit for outdoor enthusiasts, sportsmen, photographers, kayakers, and nature lovers looking for a recreational property in north-central Pennsylvania.
