About This Home
Efficiency cottage in a quiet location behind a large house in the Palmdale neighborhood of Derry Township (Hershey). Tenant pays electric, gas and wifi . Rural view from deck but only one block south of Chocolate Avenue (Route 422). Semi furnished, but doesn't have to be. Minimum 12-month lease preferred. ALSO AVAILABLE SHORT TERM with kitchen equipment, linens and all utilities paid at $1500/mo. Two miles to downtown Hershey, four miles to Penn State Hershey Medical Center, 13 miles to Harrisburg International Airport, 14 miles to Ft. Indiantown Gap, about 16 miles to downtown Harrisburg. Two blocks to a bike path that goes to town. This is a small, rustic living space. Not everyone likes it; some people love it. Has a small kitchen with antique iron sink, open shelves, range, refrigerator, microwave, small table and chairs. No dishwasher. The main room has a low sleeping loft accessed by ladder. There’s a full bathroom with a large closet and a utility closet with old but functional stacked washer/ dryer. An additional small room can be used as an office or closet. A pleasant, private deck off the kitchen overlooks several acres of open fields with deer, fox, coyotes and other wildlife. Hunting is prohibited. There’s a queen sized mattress in the sleeping loft and a single sized daybed in the main room. One window air conditioner pretty much cools the whole place. Floors are carpeted or vinyl, walls are white, woodwork is white or natural pine. Windows have mini blinds, large windows also have insulated blackout drapes. Plenty of free outside parking with drive-up motion lights. One housetrained, neutered adult dog under 25 pounds CONSIDERED, with breed restrictions and rent adjustment. Sorry, NO CATS, no multiple pets, no birds, no rodents, no reptiles. No exceptions.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
