263 Helixville Road Schellsburg, PA 15559

Looking for the kind of place you never want to leave? This extraordinary 160-acre property offers the perfect blend of natural beauty, total privacy, and a well-built home that's ready for whatever lifestyle you're dreaming of—whether it's homesteading, hunting, weekend retreats, or full-time country living.

Tucked far from the road, the custom-built 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home was designed for comfort and longevity. Built by Bill Waltman in 1998, it features superior walls in the basement, heated, newer hot water heater, outdoor wood furnace, baseboard oil heat, and a whole-house water filter. The outdoor furnace will heat all 3 zones of the house as well as heat the hot water for the house. There's an enclosed sunporch for quiet mornings, central vac for convenience, and even a root cellar under the porch for your homegrown harvest. Upstairs, a bonus office space is already plumbed and could easily become a second upstairs full bath.

The land is where this property truly shines—160 acres of pure Pennsylvania wilderness with some timber value, trails for ATVs or hiking, and two large pole buildings (electric to both, and large overhead storage in one of them) ready for your equipment, toys, or business needs. A newer well pump ensures reliable water, as well as a second well on the property and the peaceful setting ensures you'll hear more birds than cars.


Property is located minutes away from Pennsylvania State Game Lands offering miles of public hunting, fishing, and wildlife watching terrain. Winter sports are within reach with Blue Knob Resort around 30 minutes away, ideal for skiing or snowboarding getaways. Be at Shawnee Lake within minutes.

This is more than a home. It's peace. It's a place to put down roots and live the way you've always wanted—with space to breathe, room to grow, and the kind of privacy you can't put a price on.
