***Home is Being Sold with the Lot at 199 Peters Creek Rd.  Peach Bottom, PA 17563***Speedy Goat Farm, the home of author Christopher McDougall and the setting for his bestselling book ~Running with Sherman,~ can be your dream country getaway. Surrounded by hundreds of acres of preserved farmland, this nearly 5-acre property in the heart of Lancaster County~s Amish community has vintage charm with subtle modern luxuries. The beautiful log home has four bedrooms, three baths, and two woodstoves, plus a four-person sauna, a cedar-stave hot tub, a fieldstone chimney, a writing loft, and an enormous front deck where you can swing on the three wooden gliders and enjoy the sun setting over the River Hills of the nearby Susquehanna River.        For at-home workers, Speedy Goat Farm has a separate office cabin where all of Christopher McDougall~s books were written. Built from reclaimed local materials, the cabin boasts mushroom-house cypress siding and a green-slate roof. Inside, you~ll find a fieldstone floor, a sleeping loft, a big woodstove, and a one-of-a-kind cypress slab ceiling. Through its windows, you~ll look out over flowering pear and black walnut trees as Amish buggies clatter by.        The main house is bathed in light from five skylights and draws water from its own freshwater spring. The master bedroom and living room have hardwood plank floors crafted from local wild cherry and white oak trees. Downstairs, the finished basement has a cozy bedroom with its own woodstove, plenty of closet space, and a separate hot tub room. On the second floor, two bedrooms have magnificent views of the duck pond and countryside in every direction. Above the staircase is a cleverly designed writing loft with its own built-in desk.        Speedy Goat Farm is on the outskirts of both Lancaster (dubbed one of the country~s ~Best Places to Live~) and Lititz (voted ~Coolest Small Town in America~). It~s within one hour of both Philadelphia and Baltimore, while an Amtrak train can have you in New York City in 2.5 hours. For outdoor enthusiasts, Speedy Goat Farm is paradise. With the Susquehanna River just a mile away and endless miles of open country roads, it~s perfect for long runs, quiet bike rides, summer kayaking, and Nordic skiing over snowy farm lanes.        For horse owners, Speedy Goat Farm is fully fenced and equipped with both a four-stall livestock barn and a separate run-in shed. Flanking the creek is a separate fenced pasture with a covered bridge, a stone fire pit, and a wooden deck overlooking the creek ~ perfect for summer evenings.        Speedy Goat Farm is the ideal retreat for homesteaders, writers, young families, or anyone else who wants to wake up to the crowing of roosters and go to sleep to the music of a burbling creek.
