Dating back to the early 1800's, this unique property with 1.7+ acres features a 3,000+ square foot farmhouse with some of the original log home still intact and used as the most cozy living room with all of the character you would expect-chinking and a parged fireplace surround. In fact, The "log room" was the original structure on the land, and ownership goes back to the Penn Family that founded PA. It was later on the tax rolls of land held by George Washington. This freshly remodeled home offers two brand new HVAC systems with 2-zone heat and central air, brand new roofs, new windows, brand new hardwood floors, a massive kitchen with a walk-in pantry, a wine fridge, and plenty of counter space for all of your cooking/baking needs. Upstairs you will find 4 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, laundry hook-up and more! The patio off of the kitchen offers a breathtaking entertaining area for family gatherings, meals with friends, or just an amazing outdoor space to grab a book and enjoy reading into the late hours. The downstairs can easily hold 4-5 cars if you are a mechanic and/or car enthusiast at heart, or just love raw storage. And talk about location! 3515 Bossler Rd is only 25 minutes to Hershey, PA, 30 minutes to Downtown Lancaster, under 15 minutes to the Rt. 283 by-pass, 35 minutes to Harrisburg, PA, and only 7 minutes to the Amtrak Station in Elizabethtown, right by Elizabethtown College. If you are looking for a unique home, not in a development, with some land, and future potential, this is it! Schedule a time to see this home today!

R-2
Medium-Density Residential District
The R-2 Medium-Density Residential District is comprised of a mix of housing types and densities. The purpose of the district is to stabilize and preserve areas of the community to provide for a suitable environment for family life. Certain nonresidential uses are allowed by right, or by special exception, to provide for convenient access to the higher concentration of residents. This district generally coincides with public utility service areas. As a result, permitted densities and housing types require the use of these public utilities.
Directions: Head W on PA-283W. Take the exit toward Rheems/Elizabethtown. Turn left onto Cloverleaf Rd. Continue onto Colebrook Rd. Turn right onto Bossler Rd. Turn right to stay on Bossler Rd. Home will be on your right. There are 2 driveways-one off of Bossler Rd and one off of Stonemill Dr.
