A ranch home on over 7 acres! Meticulously maintained properties like this one are very hard to find, especially in the Gettysburg School District and with this much land. We are minutes away from the Maryland line and a short drive to Route 15. There are three bedrooms on the main level, one with a screened in porch that you can appreciate on cooler nights soon to come. The home owner's pride of ownership is palpable as soon as you wind back into the secluded lot. The property opens to a manicured lawn with a carport and bunkhouse on the right of this single story charmer. Below you will find a bedroom and full bath for your guests or an older member of the family, which has it's own access up the front concrete stairs and onto the driveway. From the front door you can gaze through the wood stove heated sunroom addition and onto a large deck that overlooks a quaint garden. To the right of the garden is a custom waterfall feature that will be appreciated for years and years to come. Past the garden and waterfall is the bulk of your wooded property with wandering foot trails and a hunting stand! This property should be seen if only to appreciate the detail and pride of ownership it entails. We look forward to your visit to Fernwood off Jack Road in Orrtanna, PA.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.

Agricultural Zone
The purpose of the Agricultural Zone is to protect and promote the continuation and preservation of agricultural activities in those areas most suitable for such activities. This zone also is intended to protect and stabilize the Township's agricultural economy by restricting uses that are incompatible with farming, while permitting agricultural support businesses, and to separate agricultural land uses from incompatible residential, commercial and industrial development.
Directions: From Orrtanna, take Orrtanna Road to Carrolls Tract Rd to Hickory Bridge Road, follow past Hickory Bridge Farm and turn Left on to Jack Road after bridge. Home is marked with a sign "Fernwood" on the right. No real estate sign.
