Welcome home to this meticulously maintained brick rancher on 1.37 acres in the Palmyra Area School District. Backing to Camp Pine Woods, this special property offers a peaceful, park-like setting where deer and even the area's elusive white squirrel are frequent visitors. Enjoy mature landscaping, a thriving vegetable garden, established strawberry and asparagus beds, a garden shed, and a mini orchard featuring apple, pear, cherry, and persimmon trees. Exceptionally clean and thoughtfully designed, this home offers a floor plan that feels surprisingly open and functional for its era, with excellent storage throughout. Guests are welcomed by a covered front porch and entry leading to a spacious foyer with plenty of room to greet visitors. The foyer opens to a bright living room filled with natural light and beautiful backyard views. Attractive plank flooring flows through the foyer, living room, and dining area, while the dining room features built-ins that add both charm and practicality. The thoughtfully designed kitchen is the heart of the home, offering abundant cabinetry and storage, natural cherry and warm green soft-close cabinetry, quartz countertops, a full-height quartz backsplash with concealed outlets, tile flooring, recessed lighting, a touchless faucet, oversized farmhouse sink, convection range, microwave drawer, and a center island with seating for two. A beautiful brick wood-burning fireplace creates a cozy focal point for the breakfast area. Just outside, the expansive covered patio extends the living space outdoors, providing the perfect place for morning coffee, entertaining, al fresco dining, or simply relaxing while taking in views of the gardens, orchard, and surrounding woods. With three bedrooms, two full baths, and everyday living spaces on the main level, the home offers the convenience of one-floor living without sacrificing space, storage, or flexibility. Both the primary and second bedrooms are generously sized and can comfortably accommodate king-sized furniture, a feature not often found in homes of this era. Hardwood flooring is found in the primary bedroom and one additional bedroom. The updated hall bath showcases a beautifully finished subway tile shower with penny tile detailing and heated tile flooring, while the primary bath retains its vintage character and charm. The lower level provides exceptional flexibility with a spacious family room that is ideal for entertaining, game days, movie nights, or gathering with friends and family. A private office, fourth bedroom with egress, laundry area, abundant storage, and substantial unfinished space provide room to grow and adapt to your changing needs. An oversized two-car garage provides room for vehicles, storage, and workshop space, plus additional parking for guests in the driveway. Replacement windows and major updates, including a new roof (October 2022), central air conditioning (2022), and furnace (2024), provide peace of mind for years to come. While you'll feel tucked away in nature, you're just minutes from grocery stores, everyday conveniences, Penn State Hershey Medical Center, and an easy commute to both Harrisburg and Lebanon and Lancaster. Properties offering this combination of acreage, privacy, mature landscaping, abundant storage, flexible living space, one-floor convenience, and easy access to Hershey, Harrisburg, and Lebanon and Lancaster are increasingly hard to find.
