About 837 Queen St

Welcome to a home that perfectly marries character and thoughtful updates, situated in a serene neighborhood tucked away in tranquility, yet still near convenient destinations. This 3-bedroom haven has been lovingly refreshed, with fresh paint throughout, upgraded window treatments, and updated light fixtures throughout that lend a modern glow to its timeless appeal. The owners added central air in 2019, replaced the electric box in 2024, and the roof was replaced with a lifetime roof in 2019. The living room, with its hardwood floors and rich paneling, is a cozy retreat featuring an electric fireplace with a brick mantle—converted from a broken pellet stove, though the original wood-burning fireplace is still intact for purists. The dining room wows with built-in cabinets, exposed brick, and a door leading to the side yard. A 20A 250-volt outlet under the window, a relic from the era of window AC units, adds a touch of vintage charm to this hardwood-clad space. The kitchen boasts new flooring, stainless steel appliances, and a stylish backsplash. The adjacent screened porch, with its painted asphalt floor and wood paneling, is the perfect spot to sip coffee while pondering life’s mysteries—or at least your next landscaping project. Outside, the yard features a newly added flower bed and a newly built wood platform that leads into the woods—a dream for nature enthusiasts (disc golf basket excluded). The bedrooms showcase a mix of hardwood and newer carpet (2022 in the nursery), while the full bath shines with LVP flooring, quartz countertops, and a tub/shower combo. Downstairs, the basement offers practical storage, laundry facilities, and an attached garage. The owners will miss their neighbors but are excited for their next chapter near friends and a new job. Close to Harrisburg Mall, I-83 and 283, schools, and the river with low taxes—make it your New Year’s nest before someone else snags it! *OFFER DEADLINE*
