255 Claytonia Road

Ever dream of disappearing into your own private 4-acre retreat—yet still being less than an hour from Pittsburgh and minutes to Moraine State Park? This is that place. Welcome to 255 Claytonia Road! Tucked deep into 4 private, wooded acres in Clay Township (Moniteau School District), this 3-bedroom, 3 full bath home offers over 2,400 sq ft of space designed for those craving privacy, nature, and a slower pace of living. Completely surrounded by trees, this property feels like a hidden retreat…yet you’re just minutes to Moraine State Park for biking, hiking, boating, and kayaking. Pull in, and the noise of life just…shuts off. Inside, the main level delivers that “this is why I wanted this house” feeling. Vaulted wood ceilings with exposed beams, a dramatic wall of windows pouring in natural light, and views that change with every season. Sliding glass doors lead to the wraparound deck—your go-to for morning coffee, grilling, unwinding at the end of the day, or entertaining family and friends. The farmhouse-style eat-in kitchen brings all the cozy—picture slow weekends, coffee brewing, breakfast sizzling, and nowhere you need to be. Just off the kitchen, a versatile dining space can easily function as a den, playroom, or home office depending on your lifestyle. A main-level primary bedroom with an adjacent full bath offers convenient everyday living. Upstairs, you’ll find two additional bedrooms with ample closet space, a loft perfect for a reading nook or quiet retreat, an 8x7 storage room, and a retro-inspired hall bath full of character. Now…the lower level is where your vision really comes to life. This level is thoughtfully laid out into multiple zones, giving you flexibility to truly make it your own. On one side, a 25x14 space anchored by the fireplace creates the perfect den or lounge area—complete with built-in bookcases that add warmth and character. Sliding glass doors lead directly to the lower-level patio, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection. Picture leather chairs set in front of the fire, then stepping outside in the evening air to unwind—your own private retreat, inside and out. Adjacent to this area is a full second kitchen (refrigerator, stove, sink) along with the spiral staircase leading back to the main level—making this section ideal for an in-law suite, guest quarters, or a future bar/entertaining space. Beyond that, an additional 29x24 open area offers even more possibilities. Home gym, media room, second living space, office, or expanded guest suite—the footprint is there, and the flexibility is unmatched. An updated full bathroom and a dedicated utility/laundry room complete the lower level, adding everyday functionality to the space. Additional features include a 32x24 oversized detached 2-car garage, offering space for vehicles, storage, or a workshop, and a whole-house wood burner for efficient heating and added cozy charm in the colder months. Virtually staged photos are included to help showcase the potential and inspire what’s possible. This home has incredible bones and an even better setting—ready for your personal touch and cosmetic updates. If you’ve been searching for privacy, space, and a lifestyle rooted in the outdoors…this is it.
