An 8.29-acre country retreat with a spring-fed pond and a historic bank barn — this stone Craftsman home is a rare chance to own land, water, and character all in one place. Set back from the road on two combined parcels, the property offers a mix of mature trees, open green space, and a beautifully landscaped yard, with a full-length covered front porch and a stone back patio for taking it all in. Inside, 2,779 square feet of authentic stone-and-wood character awaits your vision: original hardwood floors beneath the carpet in the living and dining rooms, generous closets and storage throughout, main-floor laundry, and a stone wood-burning fireplace (currently fitted with a pellet insert) as the heart of the home. Three bedrooms and one and a half baths offer flexible living, with a 2 Harmon pellet stoves adding cozy, efficient heat. Major systems are already handled — roof (2023), furnace (2024), water softener (2026), and sand mound (2025) — so you can focus your energy on the finishes and features that make this home your own. Beyond the house, the grounds are the real story: a spring-fed pond, a historic bank barn perfect for animals, hobbies, or storage, and 8+ acres of privacy in the Central Dauphin school district. Whether you're dreaming of a hobby farm, an equestrian property, or simply room to breathe, this is your opportunity to create something special.
