About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Easy access, roomy, close to so much but in a private country setting.

This home is currently being remodeled. The bedrooms, full bath, and laundry room are completed, but living room and kitchen are still under construction. Completely functional, but we are still in the process of designing and finishing some areas.

Formerly a one room schoolhouse built in 1876, this building was bought by a local family in 1955 and converted to a two story residence. Perfectly situated on a beautiful acre, this home offers a private outdoor seating area and deck, fire pit and unique "Pub Shed". Conveniently located near several major highways including the Pennsylvania Turnpike and Routes 70, 66, and 119. Just 35 miles southeast of Pittsburgh, it's a quick drive into the city, or to the Laurel Highlands historic districts of Ligonier and Latrobe, and the popular ski resorts of Seven Springs and Hidden Valley.

If you have an event in Pittsburgh, a quick hop onto the turnpike and you're in the city in 40 minutes! New Stanton is major intersection joining Rte 119 South toward Morgantown, WV; Rte 70 West toward Wheeling WV, Rte 70 East toward Somerset, Bedford and Harrisburg, and Rte 66 North toward Delmont.

***The outside fire pit and pub shed are available when the host is present and the weather is cooperative. This means that at the host's discretion there may be a fire and the pub shed may be open for lounging and karaoke. Otherwise feel free to use the seating area to relax.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 1.5 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

This was such a good place to stay. Not fancy, but comfortable, cozy and clean. The WiFi and TV's worked great as did everything else. Chet and Carole were such nice folks and wonderful hosts. I'll definitely stay here again if I get the chance. 5 stars across the board!

Place was absolutely perfect. Had a wedding and nearby Bella Terra Vineyards and it couldn’t have worked out better. The Pub Shed was the biggest hit for our group of 4! Now I want to build one at our house. Chet really knows how to take care of guests. Thank you so much

Host was very communicative and helpful. Property was clean and well kept. Only real gripe is the lack of ceiling fans in the bedrooms. Got kinda stuffy. Other than that, two thumbs up!

This converted schoolhouse was full of charm and very peaceful. Chet is a very gracious host and communicated well with us before arrival and when we made it there. The house was ready with air conditioning running and Sirius music playing. Very relaxing. Really appreciate the extras like Keurig cups and creamers, bottled waters and snacks. Appreciate the ample.supply of towels and washcloths. We had all the comforts of home. The weather was not conducive to a campfire and using the outdoor bar, but maybe next time. Hope to come back again in the future!

Plenty of space, with multiple rooms on two floors. The hosts provide many nice amenities to help guests feel right at home. They're also very responsive to anything you may need.
