Property Description
This unique property is waiting for its special owner. While the existing home needs TLC, the grounds are inviting. Boasting 2.1 acres, the land is mostly cleared, maintained and level making this large corner lot ready for someone to build their dream home. For the record, the majority of this listing description comes directly from the people currently living on the property as well as someone who grew up here. Local Roots & Builders: Yingst Homes, a respected builder from the area, grew up right here in the valley and still calls it home. Outdoor Life & Nature: In addition to the stream on the property (who doesn't love to drop a hook into a body of water and catch a wriggling prize), there are stocked trout streams just a few miles away, perfect for fishing enthusiasts. The hiking is excellent too—state game lands are right up the road. Ritzie Village has an access point, and there's another trailhead just a few miles further. Wildlife is abundant: deer, the occasional turkey, frogs, toads, and all kinds of critters roam freely. The residents grew up fishing in the creek and sledding in the yard—it's a place where nature is part of your everyday life. Comforts & Community: Neighbors are respectful of the privacy of others. If the next owners want a wood-burning stove, there's plenty of local wood delivery available. Cell phone service is reliable, and the property falls within the Central Dauphin School District. History & Quiet Charm: There's charming fireplace on the property—no one's used it, but it's been standing since the original house burned down. It's probably over 100 years old. The owner's niece always dreamed of turning it into a hangout spot with a bonfire or fire pit. It holds a lot of character and potential. Peaceful Living, Convenient Location: It's quiet here. No highway noise—just crickets, whippoorwills, and sometimes owls at night. The property sits on a state road, so Route 443 is always plowed early in the winter, making commutes easy. You're far enough out to enjoy country living, but still just 20 minutes from stores, shops, and the casino. Hershey is about 30 minutes away, and Harrisburg is only 20.
