About This Home

As of July 2020

This ranch style home is country yet very convenient. Enjoy the living room with its skylights and warm up to the toasty pellet stove. Entertain your guests in the family room and watch the event pour out through the slider on to the large patio area! The kitchen has a large amount of cabinetry and an island that includes seating. The large shed out back is currently a workshop but it could be her 'She Shed'! This home is only a short distance from Route 322, Palmyra, Mt. Gretna, and Hershey! Set up your showing today! You will be glad you did!
