Pending! Waterfront seasonal cottage!!! This cute cottage is perfect for all your outdoor water activities, including fishing, kayaking, boating, tubing, relaxing by the water, or spending quality family time! It is a 2 or 3 bedroom, 1 bath, unfinished seasonal cottage that sits along the Swatara Creek, very near the juncture with the Susquehanna River. It is in the Royalton section of Middletown. Located across the creek from the Middletown boat launch, it is also only minutes from Canal Lock boat launch and Tri-County Marina. The home is 678 sq ft and sits on a double lot in a quiet neighborhood. It is sturdy cinderblock construction with a concrete/ cinderblock crawlspace/ basement. Flood insurance is required. This home had water in the first floor in 2011, when the Swatara Creek rose above the 100 year floodplain. It has not had any water inside since then. We purchased it in 2013 as a recreational cottage. The full bath was redone from the studs up at that time. We used “fiber-concrete siding” for the walls, which is actually an exterior product. Our thought was that should there ever be water inside again, the walls and insulation would not need to be redone as they did with drywall. A tankless electric water heater was installed that is only in use as needed. Previously heated with natural gas, that is still available if desired. Since we only intended it as a seasonal cottage, it does not currently have heat. We winterize the lines each year, just as you would a camper. Enjoy it as it is, or with some handyman skills it could easily become a lovely year-round home again! It is ready for your touch! The home is being sold “as is”, with most contents included. No offers will be accepted unless you are pre-approved or have cash.
