About this property
Downtown Harrisburg Water Front Home - Close to Hersheypark & Farm Show Complex
Perfectly situated in downtown Harrisburg is the historic district of Shipoke, a residential neighborhood. This 3 story rowhome features 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, private parking with small garage. Central air and heat. Fully stocked kitchen with ice maker fridge. BBQ gas grill. Very walkable to all things in downtown Harrisburg.
Rental rate is all bills paid. That means we pay all utilities. However, we ask that you be kind to the environment and not waste our natural resources by leaving faucets running or taking excessively long showers. Let's leave this planet for our future generations.
It is also fully furnished house down to the spoons. If you're renting on a month to month basis, then we ask you provide towels, detergent, paper towels and toiletries.
Please note that the base rate for this house is for 4 people at full price. (The base guest count will vary if we discount our rates based on seasonality). The additional guest rate is $20 guest per night depending on the season. This fee helps to cover additional utilities, wear and tear, bedding, etc.
The house is a technology wonder. We now have full keyless entry with home automation features such as lighting, thermostat and doors. You will never have to worry about lost or misplaced keys ever. We have highspeed Wi-Fi, Netflix, Amazon Prime, Sling and HD major network cable (via antenna but weather prone).
PARKING: off-street for 1 small to medium sized passenger vehicle or obtain temporary parking permits; more specific info when you book
FREE PARKING ON-STREET: free parking outside of these hours: 9am to 10am and 4pm to 5pm, Monday thru Fri only. Weekends do not require any permits.
PARKING PERMITS FOR EXTRA CARS: remaining cars to be parked on-street that is meter parking or pay $10/car parking permit at City Hall: 123 Walnut St. Second Floor, Harrisburg, 717-255-3141. (just say you're visiting friends at this address). Our community name is called Shipoke. Our housekeeper can also help you obtain these for a small fee. Just ask!
If you like to cook, this is the place to do it. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking gear. The rear patio has a picnic bench, a large BBQ grill and even an herb garden for your use during growing season. After a good meal, you have Riverfront for a nice relaxing walk. The sunsets are to die for with the many bridges that Harrisburg city is known. Enjoy!

Why they chose this property
We love downtown because it's a unique neighborhood to play and relax. Riverfront is at your door steps and City Island and the "Walking Bridge" offers a very unique experience of the Susquehanna River.
Harrisburg is a hidden jewel in Pennsylvania due to its rich history, natural beauty and easy access to most major Mid-Atlantic metropolitan cities. It is the capital city of Pennsylvania with many historic buildings to visit. The Blue Ridge & Appalachian Mountains surround it with lots of hiking and biking trails. It is considered the hub of PA due to most major highways passing through or near it.
This house lies on the most southern part of historic Shipoke. It is known for its river front access, views and sunsets. You can easily walk or drive to all points.
We had lived in the city for over 10 yrs and its a joy to visit or do business here.

What makes this property unique
You will be surprised by the natural beauty of the location. There are many bridges that span the Susquehanna River and it's right at your door steps. The serene back patio allows you to enjoy your morning coffee or walk to a bench on Riverfront Park to soak in the sunrise or sunsets. The house is fully furnished for your enjoyment.
