This perfectly secluded yet conveniently located 2-acre Rapho Township property is accessed by a long private lane, offering picturesque country views as you approach the home.

The picturesque buildings include a traditional two-story, three-bedroom farmhouse featuring a large family room, sun porch addition, and an attached oversized two-car garage.
