This gorgeous Georgian style home sits on 3.96 acres of forest, meadows, vegetable and flower gardens, overlooking the Swatara Creek. This sturdy brick home was built in 1854 with the utmost thought and care with broad, hand-hewn timber, iron tie bars and bonded brick. Classic architecture completely updated and remodeled. The interior is magnificent! The inviting front porch and main entry bring you into the open space living area with a gorgeous stone fireplace flanked with identical built-ins, beautiful hardwood floors throughout, exposed beams and vaulted ceiling. Separate dining room with additional fireplace and sitting area. Modern kitchen with plenty of cabinet and counter space and convenient full bath round out the first floor. The upper level boasts the original hardwood flooring, a step down primary bedroom, sleek full bath and 2 additional niced sized bedrooms. Full, clean as a whistle, basement houses laundry, utilities and storage. A unique bonus is the summer kitchen that was actually lived in by the original owners* as well as the detached garage/shed, perfect for tools and lawn equipment. Lots more storage in the 2 car detached carport with floored second story. The property is so peaceful, bordered by hundreds of acres of forest and farmland. Large, mature trees shade the house and add to the picturesque setting. Wildlife abounds. The large deck and screened porch make a great place to relax, read, watch TV, or just veg out. Breezes from the woods massage every inch of the porch. And the peaceful view from the deck is something you will love morning, noon, and night. This is truly a once in a lifetime opportunity to own a piece of history and enjoy all the amenities and beauty this property has to offer! * A copy of the history of the Snyder House is attached
