Welcome to 79 Oberholtzer Road—a well-loved and carefully maintained home set in the peaceful countryside of Elizabethtown. Owned by the same family since 1966, this charming property offers a rare combination of timeless care, practical space, and a truly serene setting. It backs to preserved farmland and looks out over the pastures of a neighboring farm, giving you uninterrupted views in every direction. This 4-bedroom, 2-bath home features over 2,000 square feet of living space, with thoughtful additions made over the years. In 1969, the upstairs was finished to include two spacious bedrooms and a full bathroom, perfect for additional family members or guests. In 2001, the home was further expanded with the addition of a bright and flexible all-purpose room—ideal as a second living space. Throughout the home, you’ll find evidence of meticulous upkeep, with everything clean, functional, and move-in ready. While the interior reflects its era, it offers solid construction and a blank canvas for modern updates. The first floor offers the convenience of single-level living, with a main bedroom and full bath easily accessible. The kitchen and living areas are warm and inviting, full of natural light and country charm. Hardwood flooring is believed to be under much of the carpet, offering an opportunity to refinish and expose the home’s original character. What truly sets this property apart are the unique outdoor spaces and thoughtful outbuildings. A backyard “she shed,” lovingly used for gardening, offers a peaceful space to tend plants, enjoy quiet time, or convert into a creative studio. In addition to the main garage, an attached secondary garage has served as a workshop and storage space for lawn equipment, tools, and outdoor gear—perfect for hobbyists, handymen, or anyone needing extra room for projects. The lot itself offers just under half an acre of usable space, surrounded by mature landscaping and picturesque views. Whether you're sipping coffee on the porch or gardening in the backyard, every angle of this home connects you to the beauty of the land around it. Homes like this—loved for generations and set in such a beautiful, peaceful location—rarely come to market. Whether you’re looking to downsize, put down roots, or simply want a home that offers both character and potential, 79 Oberholtzer Rd is worth the visit.
