Description
Welcome to an exquisite estate just minutes from downtown Hershey! This sprawling property includes three buildings: the main house boasting 8,000 square feet of living space; an enchanting pool house of 1,175 square feet; and an accessory building of 1,000 square feet. It is encompassed on 6.5 acres of sloped, open and wooded areas on a quiet street in South Hanover Township. The all-brick home features a traditional, French Provencial flair, exuding classic and comfort on the first floor. As you enter the main entry you are greeted by a beautifully hand-crafted staircase that embodies classical architectural features. The home offers four living rooms each with their own personal touch. A traditional living room, a gathering room off the kitchen, a sunroom, and an entertaining room equipped with an under-counter beverage fridge and wet bar, balcony, soaring ceilings, and exposed beams, all designed and distinctively appointed. The designer kitchen is appointed with Wolf appliances, Subzero refrigerator, and a walk-in pantry. There is a Butler's pantry between the kitchen and formal dining room. The formal dining room is a classical masterpiece, accommodating seating for ten, that will magically take you to the castles of France, accented by a hand-painted tray ceiling, fine traditional trim and flanked by columns. The first-floor primary suite offers an office just outside the entry and comfortable sleeping quarters. The primary bathroom offers spacious accommodation, handsomely appointed finishes, a whirlpool tub, full body - surround shower and a skylight illuminated rain shower. Off the bath is a walk-in closet and dressing area fully equipped for layout clothing options, shelves, and drawers to complement any attire. The primary suite also includes a private living area that is set up to accommodate a hot tub/spa. This room offers views of the pool, pool house, patio, pond and back yard. Ascending the beautiful staircase to the second floor you will find an additional gathering area for tv, games, reading or studying, a spectacular second floor office or den and four additional bedrooms and ensuite baths. Each room provides spacious flow and ample light. There are far too many unique features on the second floor to list. There is a bar, wine closet and billiard area in the lower level with walkout double doors to the rear yard. Exceptional outdoor living on the expansive paver patio, pool, and pool house. The pool house boasts an eight-seat bar, a complete kitchen featuring a Viking grill, a wood burning fireplace, a full bathroom, half bath, and an outdoor tile shower for rinsing off after indulging in the clear pool waters. It is perfect for enjoying outdoor living in the daytime or nighttime. The sounds of the waterfall and koi pond make this your own private oasis for entertaining or peace and solitude in complete privacy and comfort. The main house also offers an attached oversized three car garage. This estate also has a 1,000 square feet accessory building for a boat, RV, 4 wheelers, trucks or a workshop for those wanting a craft or woodworking area. All of this is on 6.5 acres in South Hanover Township, Dauphin County. It is minutes from the cultural offerings of Hershey and its entertainment venues, major employers, and idyllic town. Within 30 minutes of the property, you can be downtown Harrisburg, Lancaster or York cities. And an hour +/- minutes away from Penn State University, State College.
