Some homes are simply meant to be admired. This one was designed not only to be admired, but to be lived in and loved. Set along a peaceful cul-de-sac with no through traffic in the highly sought-after Cornwall-Lebanon School District, this beautifully cared-for 5-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom home offers a warm neighborhood atmosphere. From the moment you step inside, the foyer’s soaring 20-foot ceilings and custom statement chandelier create a dramatic first impression without sacrificing the sense of comfort that carries throughout the home. The owners have thoughtfully refreshed nearly every room with fresh paint, new baseboards, designer light fixtures, custom switch plates, newer carpet, and waterproof plank flooring. The spacious main level offers plenty of flexibility for everyday life and entertaining, with a formal dining room and two distinct living areas that allow everyone to gather together or spread out. The family room centers around a gas fireplace with shiplap, custom display shelving, and warm accent lighting. The sitting room makes an equally impressive statement with a tray ceiling, crystal chandelier, picture-frame molding, and an electric fireplace with a decorative mirrored-tile surround. At the heart of the home is the updated kitchen, featuring granite countertops, a large island with seating for four, and a floor-to-ceiling tiled coffee bar with built-in shelving that makes slow mornings feel a little more special. A sliding glass door leads directly from the kitchen to the backyard. The mudroom and laundry space lead directly to the epoxy-finished two-car garage with overhead storage and have plenty of personality, featuring a playful button-inspired accent wall, hand-stenciled florals, and a custom built-in folding table. A half bath completes the main level. Outside, the backyard feels like a private resort. A new privacy fence completely encloses the rear yard, where a heated saltwater pool and built-in trampoline set the stage for summer afternoons, grilling beneath the covered patio, and crisp fall evenings around the fire pit with s’mores and hot cocoa. Professional landscaping fills the yard with rose bushes, daisies, mature trees, and a magnificent weeping willow as cardinals visit the backyard feeders. An oversized shed provides ample storage for lawn and pool equipment. Upstairs, three generous secondary bedrooms share a remodeled full bathroom with a tub and shower. The expansive primary suite includes a custom walk-in closet system and an updated private bathroom with double sinks, a jetted Jacuzzi soaking tub surrounded by elegant Italian porcelain tile, and a separate tiled shower. The fully renovated walk-out lower level adds even more possibilities. Insulated, drywalled, and waterproofed, it includes new windows, crown molding, individually controlled electric baseboard heat, a full kitchenette, a comfortable living area, a private fifth bedroom with a large closet, and a newly completed bathroom. Whether used for overnight guests, a home office, or an entertainment suite, it offers exceptional flexibility. Built-in shelving on the unfinished side keeps storage organized and easily accessible. Upgrades include a newer HVAC system providing central air conditioning and central gas heat, along with a water-softening system. A Brinks security system provides 24-hour recording. Target, Starbucks, Chick-fil-A, and Home Depot are all close by, along with championship golf, fine dining, and more than 20 miles of the Lebanon Valley Rail Trail. Hershey, Mount Gretna, and Lancaster are all within easy reach! The Lebanon VA Medical Center is nearby, as are Routes 72 and 322 and the PA Turnpike. “Home sweet home” feels especially fitting here. From quiet mornings at the coffee bar and sunny afternoons beside the pool to crisp fall evenings around the fire, this is a home created for the moments that make life memorable.
