220 Longview Blvd, Gettysburg, PA 17325

Property Description

220 Longview Boulevard is a one-of-a-kind Gettysburg address nestled in the desirable Longview community along historic Herr’s Ridge just three miles north of Gettysburg Borough. The rich character and unique charm of this home are immediately apparent from the curb - as you approach the home you will note its tasteful stone siding and cedar shake accents, mature and well-manicured landscaping, and attractive façade. Walking toward the primary entryway you notice the generous three-car garage and oversized screened-in front porch, perfect for taking in the lush landscaping and mature hardwoods that surround the property with coffee, tea, or a good book in-hand. Passing through the front door you stand in a tiled entryway looking into the primary living space, complete with gleaming hardwood floors and abundant natural light pouring in from its many windows and glass doors. The main level features a highly functional, aesthetic, and customizable floor plan, with a generously sized living room, an office or reading nook opening into what could be used as a formal dining room, office, or playroom, and wrapping around to a beautiful kitchen. The kitchen features granite countertops, an island with bar seating, stainless steel appliances, an oversized two-basin sink, recessed lighting, and ample cabinetry and storage space. Stepping from the kitchen into the sunroom your eye is met with an impressive wall of wood-framed sliding glass doors, which perfectly frame the image of your private in-ground 50' by 20' swimming pool and patio on the other side, and allow sunshine to stream into the home as it beams down past the mature pines that envelop your private backyard - a backyard which itself is surrounded by a full fence and ready to accommodate playing pets and children. This large sunroom space presents many use and layout opportunities, from additional living space to play or entertainment space, and features a double-sided fireplace that ties into the main living room. Passing back through the main living area and first floor powder room, you enter the first-floor primary bedroom suite and are immediately impressed by the size of the primary bedroom, which features its own private access to the rear patio and pool. The bedroom also features an attached office complete with built-in cabinetry, two walls of generously sized closets, an attached primary bath with dual vanities, shower, and tub, and an additional attached room perfect for a private exercise space, nursery, or whatever other use you prefer. Upstairs you will find two additional bedrooms, each featuring a walk-in closet and sharing a Jack-and-Jill full bath, and ample additional attic storage space, while downstairs you will find a huge unfinished full basement providing abundant storage and the possibility of finishing the space however you see fit. Additional features that any homeowner will love include a natural gas backup generator that powers core systems such as heating, sump pumps, the refrigerator, electrical outlets and lighting and kicks in automatically in the rare event of a power outage, a water treatment system that includes both a UV filtration system and a reverse osmosis system for drinking water, electrical stub-out for the potential addition of a hot tub and gas stub-out for the potential addition of a permanent outdoor barbecue, and three separate centrally-ducted heating and cooling zones throughout the home. Rarely does an opportunity present itself for such a unique and thoughtfully laid out home that is at once a private oasis and also located so conveniently close to commuter routes, shopping, and local communities and attractions. Don’t miss your opportunity to tour this beautiful property before it is too late!
