Nestled in an attractive neighborhood just outside the town of Gettysburg is this lovely, 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom, Cape Cod style home on almost ½ acre. They don’t build them like this anymore with brick all around, solid construction, custom woodwork, and lots more. This one-owner home features first floor living with a bedroom and full bathroom on the main level to include an accessible, tiled, stand-up shower, heated tile floors, and laundry facilities. A cozy living room with vaulted ceilings and fireplace, currently with an electric insert, is a great space to enjoy. Upstairs are two bedrooms, walk-in closets, and a full bathroom. Enjoy the outdoors while relaxing on the covered front porch alcove, or on the back deck overlooking a rear wooded property boundary. An oversized garage with a loft above, full unfinished basement, 3-zone hot water heat/2-zone central ac, and public sewer, make this home a great find.
