Discover the charm and versatility of this well-maintained 2-bedroom, 1-bath single-family home tucked away in a quiet part of Harrisburg. This home offers a great mix of comfort and potential. The living room features laminate flooring, freshly painted walls in a modern gray tone, and newly installed blinds (2025). An open floor plan leads into the kitchen, equipped with stainless steel appliances and washer/dryer. The spacious primary bedroom easily fits a king-size bed, while the second bedroom is currently set up as a home office with open closet space and a full workspace - but it could also serve as a guest room or hobby area depending on the buyer’s preferences. The bathroom has been updated with a lighted exhaust fan and a fresh coat of paint (2025). Storage cabinet added, shower head updated, and exhaust fan added (2019–2020). Downstairs, the unfinished basement offers versatility with roughed-in plumbing, hot and cold water hookups, and an updated electrical system. Recently painted walls (2025) and a solid block foundation provide a clean slate, whether for storage, a workshop, or future finishing. A former third bedroom once occupied this space, and its footprint remains ready for reinvention. Step outside and enjoy a private fenced-in backyard, the highlight of the property. The sellers invested in a high-quality metal fence (installed in 2019), added floodlights, built a patio in front of the shed, and even included a fire pit for year-round enjoyment (2024). The shed has electric service (electrical upgrades done in 2020) and was once a hand-built workshop, offering ample space for storage or creative use. For the eco-conscious, a NEMA 14-50 Tesla EV charger was installed in 2020 on the side of the home. Ring Doorbell 3 installed in 2022, fresh exterior paint on the side steps and front porch (2025). Replaced damaged wood on front and side steps to ensure safety and durability (2025). Fresh mulch applied annually, most recently in 2025. This home is more than just a place to live, it’s a place to love! While the lush greenery offers privacy in the warmer months, you’ll get clearer views of the creek in the fall and winter - with occasional visits from birds, deer, and even a fox! Just 20 minutes from Hershey’s attractions, dining, and entertainment, it’s also close to a variety of Harrisburg’s scenic parks and the vibrant charm of City Island. Surrounded by a strong sense of community, this home is a rare find for those seeking serenity, functionality, and enduring charm. This gem won’t last long, schedule your showing today!
