Nestled on the serene slopes of Bunn Mountain in James Creek, this remarkable log home embodies the true meaning of home and pride of ownership. Featured in the Fall 2004 edition of Common Ground for its rich Central Pennsylvania history, this property tells the inspiring story of one family’s grit and passion to create their dream retirement home, which became known as the" Bouquet House on Bunn Mountain". Set on 7.11 peaceful, wooded acres, this handcrafted log home captures the essence of rustic charm and timeless craftsmanship. Each log was hand-selected from abandoned logs obtained from an old home on Bouquet Street in McConnellstown, and the chestnut posts in the living area are sourced from the seller’s grandfather’s barn. All the sandstone used for the fireplace and retaining walls was gathered directly from the property, adding to its authentic character and connection to the land. The home features 2 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a spacious loft with a private outdoor deck, and a finished walkout basement complete with a workshop. Every detail reflects thoughtful design and enduring quality. Beyond the main residence, the property includes a detached two-car garage with electric service and a large two-story barn with a workshop—ideal for storing a boat, camper, or tractor. The barn’s second floor offers a versatile space perfect for gatherings or creative pursuits. Located just 15 minutes from Raystown Lake’s Tatman Run Boat Launch and day-use area, this property offers the perfect blend of seclusion, history, and convenience. The Bouquet House on Bunn Mountain is more than a home—it’s a legacy waiting to be continued.
