Property Description
An Oasis In Hershey - This stunning craftsman style home has too many features to list, you just must see it in person to take it all in. Located on one of Hershey's premier downtown streets, Para Avenue, is beautifully tree-lined and enjoys walking distance to everything the downtown has to offer, including the Theatre, Golf Course, Bike Path, 3 Community Parks, the Saturday Farmers Market, the Zoo , as well as the Schools and Library. The welcoming front porch is where you'll enjoy taking in the sunsets as well as the beautiful manicured landscape. A large gracious foyer features a beautiful original staircase and gives access to all major rooms. There's an air of gracious formality in the open living and dining room enhanced by custom moldings and Brazilian cherry hardwood flooring. The home was designed for family living and the ease of entertaining too. Large windows, skylights and solar light tubes allow for the home to be flooded with natural light as well as an abundance of recessed lighting throughout the home for when the sun sets. A large family room enjoys a wall of windows and access to the rear patio. A gas fireplace with built-ins for an entertainment center is a focal point of this room. The kitchen which is open to the family room has a double sided granite bar with cabinets for storage. The kitchen will also be the gathering room to host mealtimes and homework and highlights custom 42" cabinetry, granite counters, ceramic backsplash & flooring, and stainless top of the line appliances. Just off the kitchen is a laundry room that has a wall of cabinets for household storage and a locker for the kids. This room has two entries, from the kitchen and inside the back door making it a great "drop" space. Also located inside the back door is a powder room, tucked away for privacy, yet the perfect place when spending time on the rear porch or yard. The second level features 5 bedrooms (one attached to the master suite making it a perfect home office or nursery). Bedroom #3 has an on-suite full bath. A second full bath has access from the hallway as well as Bedroom #4. The owners suite boasts a large walk-in-closet, a sitting room, two built-in wall safes', and a luxurious bathroom with separate commode room, walk-in tiled shower with seating, whirlpool tub and a custom double vanity. It's a place where you'll truly Pamper yourself! The 27x27 unfinished basement could easily be finished and enjoys high ceilings and a storage room. Don't finish it and its still the perfect playroom or home gym! Step out back and take in the beautiful yard with a "new" custom built cedar privacy fence. The wrap-around back porch is where you'll enjoy morning coffee and who cares if it drizzles, you'll be protected. Just off the porch is a lovely paver patio that enjoys the afternoon shade. Your children and pets can romp in their own fenced yard while you relax watching them nearby. This corner lot is one of the largest lots in the downtown area and would easily accommodate an inground swimming pool. This home is so well built it is "low maintenance". It has dual everything - heating, air conditioning and water heaters. Don't miss your opportunity, once you see it, you'll want to own it so call today to schedule your private showing .
