About This Home

As of November 2025

OFFER DEADLINE: Sunday, October 12 at 3:00 PM +++VALUE PRICED AND SO MUCH POTENTIAL! 12 minutes from Hershey attractions make this a prime spot for a short term rental venture!! Views for miles in several directions in this sweet North Londonderry Township single detached home! Situated on a rural .35 acre lot, this large home boasts over 1,800 square feet of finished living space including a vast 26'x12' main level family room with its own heating and cooling mini split unit. Another huge main level room (11' x 23') that was previously used as an office could serve as a 4th bedroom if needed. There is a handicap accessible full bath with roll in shower just off the kitchen and plenty of other areas on the first floor between the formal living room, formal dining room, functional kitchen and mudroom (chest freezer included) with laundry area (washer and dryer included). Upstairs you will find 3 bedrooms - all with wood floors, and another updated full bath. Wood floors are throughout much of the home (some exposed and some under carpets). There is an attached 1 car garage accessed from the rear of the home and a recently painted deck with ramp runs across the entire front of the home. A small fenced in area off the office room is perfect to keep pets or kids safe. The main house roof was replaced in 2021, roof over the bonus room was done in 2022, and the porches and garage roofs (except for front section of garage roof which was deemed to be sound by roofer) were just replaced prior to listing. Furnace and A/C recently serviced with service records available for review at the home. Well water was also recently tested and on site septic system was just pumped. This property holds tremendous potential and with some cosmetic updates could be a stunner! Seller wishes to sell "as-is" but will provide a 2-10 (1) year Home Warranty with an acceptable offer. See brochure in documents (Buyer SIMPLE coverage). Terrific location with close proximity to Hershey (12 minutes away) and a quick trip to hop on I-81/I-78 for commutes east or west.
