Country Roads, take me home, to the place-- Might you, my friend, belong??--a move-in-ready split level situate on a gentle rise overlooking beautiful Perry County farm fields. For those that find garages important, there are four here--two attached to the main home and a separate, detached two car garage, a storage shed, and a chicken coop should you wish fresh eggs for your morning scramble. Off the kitchen is a pretty sitting room with beamed ceiling and picture perfect countryside view. A larger family room is a few steps down, as are additionally a storage room / basement. Upstairs there are three bedrooms and two updated baths. Flooring is predominantly a mix of newer hardwood floors, almost new carpet and some ceramic On the low-maintenance rear deck (new summer of 2020), you have both privacy, a tranquil view, and lots of birds to keep you company. Only a mile and a half off 22W (a 28 minute drive from the PA Capitol), this is an especially pleasant and picturesque area of Perry County, with scattered newer construction and individual homes with lots of spacing between.
Rural living at its best with sunrise and sunset views out your windows! Extra large front lawn gives great curb appeal and enjoy four garage spaces for all your "toys". Extra storage shed remains along with a swing set. Minutes from Rt322 and Harrisburg area.
