2623 PANTHER VALLEY ROAD

POTTSVILLE, PA17901

Built in 1975 as a true Western-style lodge, this one-of-a-kind estate was designed by architect David E. Krusko. Exposed heavy-timber post-and-beam framing defines every room, and the beams came from the West Coast by way of the Panama Canal. Western Red Cedar walls and hand-finished joinery are on full display: corbels, knee braces, drop pendants and exposed through-bolts, with 50+ years of warm amber patina. The 25+ ft vaulted great room is the heart of the home. Its beams meet in a starburst at the peak, above a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace and chimney, slate floors and a wall of windows facing the property. A timber staircase leads to the upper level. Behind sliding wall panels, a hidden room (currently a gun room) with lit display cabinetry and a large workbench could become a gallery, studio or tasting room. The home has approximately 6,200 sq ft with 5 bedrooms and 5 full baths, including a primary suite with two full baths and a large walk-in closet with built-in displays. Geothermal heating and cooling keeps it efficient year-round. The grounds are just as special. The property is made up of two separate lots totaling 35.9 acres: the home lot plus an additional 12.1-acre wooded lot. For animals, there are stalls for horses or donkeys, a temperature-controlled tack room with a full bath, dog runs and kennels, and room for pasture. A private gun range, built with international trap shooting in mind, has its own cabin and bathroom. You’ll also find a bank barn, a spring house and multiple garages. A creek, woods and hunting complete the setting.
