779 Laurel Woods Ln, Hanover, PA 17331
What's special
Tucked high in the scenic Pigeon Hills, this exceptional custom home offers a rare sense of privacy and tranquility in the desirable Laurel Woods community. A winding driveway meanders through 2.86 wooded acres, creating an impressive approach to this distinctive 1½-story residence, thoughtfully custom built by McManus Homes with quality craftsmanship throughout. Step inside and experience the drama of a soaring two-story foyer and Great Room, where an open staircase, bridge overlook and skylights create a light-filled architectural centerpiece. A wood-burning fireplace flanked by built-in bookshelves brings warmth and character to the Great Room, while hardwood floors and 9-foot ceilings enhance the spacious main level. The beautifully appointed custom kitchen features granite countertops, a generous island and charming seeded-glass cabinet doors. Designed for comfortable main-level living, the private owner’s suite is a true retreat with its own sitting room, spacious bath and walk-in closet. A second main-level bedroom offers wonderful flexibility as a guest suite or den. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms provide plenty of space for family and guests, including one currently enjoyed as an expansive home office. Offering 3,314 square feet above grade, plus a partially finished walkout lower level with a full bath, this home provides exceptional space for both everyday living and entertaining. Step outside onto the Trex deck and take in the peaceful wooded surroundings and natural beauty of the Pigeon Hills. A whole-house generator adds peace of mind to this remarkable property. Private yet welcoming, spacious yet warm, this is a home with character, craftsmanship and a setting that truly sets it apart.
