What's special

Single-level living

There is a reason Hershey is called the Sweetest Place on Earth, and this move-in-ready 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath ranch puts you right in the middle of it. Beautiful hardwood and vinyl flooring run throughout, fresh paint brightens every room, and the pride of ownership is obvious from the moment you walk in. The big-ticket items are already taken care of: a large bedroom addition and new siding in 2017, a new roof in 2010, and a switch from oil heat to natural gas in 2012. Extra parking in the rear is a nice everyday perk. Step outside and you are minutes from Hersheypark, the GIANT Center, Hershey Gardens, ZooAmerica, and the restaurants and shops along Chocolate Avenue. Penn State Health Milton S. Hershey Medical Center is a quick drive, and the home is located within Derry Township School District. A strong fit for buyers seeking single-level living, an in-demand Hershey location, or an investment in the Derry Township market. Come see it before someone else calls it home.
