Spring Brook, PA Home for Rent

A swath of largely rural township between the Scranton and Wilkes-Barre area and Covington Township, Spring Brook, Pennsylvania, is home to creeks and reservoirs in addition to its namesake brook. Once lumber mill country, the area now offers a mix of secluded nature and proximity to the interstate, Scranton and Moscow, Pennsylvania, with east coast metropolises like New York and Philadelphia a couple of hours away. About 2,800 people call this part of Pennsylvania home. Montage Mountain Resort, special events in nearby communities and rustic restaurants contribute to the character of this area. The median price for a single-family home in Spring Brook is about $240,000. Modest homes can start around $130,000 and run up to about $330,000. Larger homes on expansive lots can cost between $490,000 and $940,000. Colonial Revivals and ranch homes lie in the open, suburban-feeling northeast corner of the township, one of the denser pockets of residents. Smaller cottages and Cape Cods line Spring Lane across State Route 307. Other parts of Spring Brook are more rural and sparsely settled, with homes along narrow roads amid dense trees or squatting on farm fields among outbuildings.
