Property Description
Inside, the home features hardwood and luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout. The main living area centers around a wood-burning fireplace that provides both charm and function, while the electric baseboard heat and 200-amp service support modern living. The kitchen includes an electric oven and range, offering convenience for daily cooking. The home's two bedrooms and single full bath are situated across two levels, with a thoughtful layout that maintains privacy while optimizing available space. The absence of a basement simplifies upkeep, and a crawl space foundation supports easy maintenance access.
Outside, a detached garage and carport provide ample parking and storage for vehicles, boats, or outdoor equipment. The lot's combination of open lawn and riverbank frontage makes it well-suited for outdoor activities such as kayaking, fishing or simply relaxing by the water. The property's location along Railroad Street allows for both paved and gravel road access. While the home provides a private setting, it remains close to local amenities, including dining, shops and schools within Duncannon and surrounding communities.
The Susquehanna River forms the eastern boundary of the property, offering navigable water and riparian rights. Whether used as a primary residence, a recreational retreat, or an investment property, this home's river access and recent renovations make it a distinctive opportunity within Perry County. The home is within the Susquenita School District and zoned R1 under Penn Township.
Buyers should note that the property lies within an AE flood zone, defined as an area with a 1% annual chance of flooding and a 26% chance over a 30-year period. Flood insurance may be required by certain lenders. Utilities include well water, on-site septic and electric service. Internet and cable are available in the area, providing year-round connectivity for remote work or streaming.
With a combination of practical updates, accessible riverfront, and a manageable lot size, this property delivers an attractive balance of comfort and outdoor lifestyle. Whether envisioned as a full-time residence or a getaway near the Susquehanna, it offers lasting appeal in a scenic part of Perry County.
