If you have been looking for a home with a sense of privacy while still in the proximity of restaurants, shopping and entertainment, this 2,651 finished square foot home is the place you need to see! Coming up the driveway, you are welcomed into your very own enchanted escape. There is an abundance of wildlife including numerous species of birds, though Charlie the Blue Jay is a regular at the bird feeders, deer that come to visit most evenings, and an owl that makes sure to hoot hello a few nights a week. Wild raspberries will be plentiful by the time you move in for the summer and generous flowerbeds wrap around the house, featuring a butterfly garden out front. As you meander throughout the home, you will notice exposed beams accenting several rooms. The large, open kitchen allows you to move freely while the ample number of cabinets are sure to provide storage for all of your dishes and gadgets. The sizable living room offers plenty of space for family activities and guests with the view of the beautiful gardens just outside your windows. Into the dining area, natural light pours through the wall of windows and sliding door to the back deck. While on the deck, take a minute to bask in the peaceful sounds of birds chirping and the wind chimes that sway in the breeze. This space is perfect for relaxing after a long day or as an entertaining space for guests. The 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, featuring a stand-up shower and claw-foot tub complete this floor. The downstairs offers an in-law suite or apartment rental with its own side entrance and patio. Here you will find another full bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and living room area. In addition, there is still plenty of space for storage, a workshop and an area to complete laundry on the back side. While the current owners have not used it as such, the downstairs space was previously used as an Airbnb rental. For the history enthusiasts, not only are you 10 minutes from downtown Gettysburg where you can witness reenactments to commemorate the Battle of Gettysburg, meander through the battlefields to explore iconic landmarks, and get a little spooky by trying out a ghost tour, your possible future home is PART of the history! This home is part of the historical Manor of Maske land acquisition by Thomas Penn, showcasing a beautiful plaque at your own front door! This home has so much to offer and it could be yours! Schedule your showing today to experience the beauty for yourself!
