Property Description
Discover an exceptional opportunity to own this 43+/- acre self-sustaining estate at 1339 Spruce Hill Road, Port Royal, PA 17082. Previously operated as a self-sustaining farm, this versatile property blends rural serenity with modern amenities and off-grid capabilities, featuring mature timber, electrified pastures, and proximity to Raystown Lake, Penn State University, and Harrisburg. Ideal for nature enthusiasts, families, or those seeking a private compound, with furnishings included. The campus includes 13 maintenance-free buildings, all connected via conduit, air-conditioned, and heated with four redundant systems for reliability. Key structures encompass the owner's house as the primary full residence; and two apartments serving as additional full residences for guests or family and equipped with washers and dryers; a two-story playhouse with solar lighting; a bath house fully equipped with a bath, washer, and dryer for campers and guests; a workshop with four full bays, high ceilings, a four-season wash bay, and air conditioning; a multi-level barn for storage with apartment, electric doors, baths, washers, and dryers; a cart shed for ATV storage with electric doors; a bike shed for bicycles; an eight-bay run-in shed (four lockable) for equipment and boats, including fuel tanks; a covered gazebo for outdoor dining; a woodshed holding approximately 10 cords of seasoned wood; and an equipment shed for property support. All living quarters are fully heated and cooled year-round, with additional indoor features like parking for over 20 cars, and three houses in total. Designed for self-sufficiency and recreation, the property spans groomed grounds in a low-density area, boasting two solar arrays, a 16 kW propane generator, a 2,000-gallon tank farm, approximately 1,000 gallons of diesel fuel storage with electric pumps, an electric/propane-driven air compressor system, three wells (one pneumatic, two electric), and two approved septic systems to ensure off-grid capability. Outdoor amenities include two electrified pastures, a 100-yard rifle range, a groomed camping area with two camper sites equipped with electric, phone, and cable for live-in workers, a quarry with stockpile, and a 5,000 sq. ft. fenced garden with a frost-free hydrant. Security and connectivity are enhanced by an electric gated entrance, a closed-circuit video system with remote access, three antenna arrays, a commercial central phone system with PA and paging capabilities, paved driveways, groomed cart paths, and indoor parking and wash bay. Additional perks make this low-maintenance haven even more appealing, with low taxes, affordable utilities, and a prime location just 30 miles east of Penn State, less than an hour from Harrisburg, and close to abundant outdoor adventures.
