Property Description
Welcome to this warm and inviting brick ranch home in Derry township. With over 2000 square feet above grade and a large partially finished lower level, this home goes on annd on! Immediately you will notice the solid and clean exterior that has so much to offer. This home is nestled in the quiet neighborhood of Palmdale of Hershey where the neighbors are like family, and the pride of homeownership is apparent. This one of a kind, rare Hershey rancher, is sure to amaze. Original hardwood flooring, and a gleaming bay window welcome you inside. There is an open concept living area with a modernized retro feel, and surprising primary bedroom you must experience for yourself. Who would not want a vaulted ceiling, stone fireplace focal point, and sliding doors to your covered deck? Not to mention the outdoor oasis with a fireplace, charcoal grill cove, and hot tub for rest and relaxation after a long hard day. The original 3rd bedroom has been converted to a walk through to the primary. This room is perfect for an office space so you do not need to use one of your other three bedrooms as a work from home space. You will never lack for storage with custom built in cabinetry in every room, and throughout the basement. The basement has an additional full bath, laundry, two additional rooms, and a large space for a workshop and storage. Yet, don't stop there! We have not even mentioned the additional quarters built on to the west side of the home. Here you will find a second wood burning fireplace in the private living space with a second kitchen! With over 2000 square feet above grade, this home has no lack for space or imagination. We look forward to your visit! Tankless gas water heater and Legacy Gas Heat Compfort System Installed September of 2023. New roof 2022. Chair lift accessibility to the lower level/laundry.
