Listing description

This property will be offered at Public Auction on Saturday, August 29, 2026 @ 12pm. The listing price is the opening bid only and in no way reflects the final sale price. 10% down due at auction, 2% transfer tax to be paid by the purchaser, real estate taxes prorated. 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 property is bordered by cornfields and mature woods, creating a peaceful rural setting. 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. Other buildings and improvements include an improved 34' x 28' two-story barn with second-floor office space that formerly supported a small contracting business. Additional amenities include a 24' x 24' two-bay pole shed, a 44' x 20' masonry shop with two overhead garage doors, and a 20' x 20' detached metal carport. Conveniently located less than 10 minutes from Manheim, Mount Joy, and Route 283, this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to purchase a private country homestead with ample space for equipment, hobbies, storage, or a home-based business, all in a beautiful setting that's perfect for raising a family. While the property could benefit from cosmetic updates, it has been well cared for throughout the years.

Recomputed from the county assessment ($220,100, 2018 base year) × current millage. School millage is from the latest year certified by the Pennsylvania Department of Education (2025-26); districts adopt the next year's budgets each June, and we update when the state certifies the statewide file in the fall. Portals typically reprint the recorded 2025 bill. Pennsylvania does not reassess on sale. Estimate only. Verify with Lancaster County before relying on it.

Taxes use NookLocal's estimate at current millage rates, not the stale figure on the MLS. The default rate is the average 30-year rate as of July 2026; insurance is estimated at 0.35% of the price per year. Below 20% down, lenders usually add mortgage insurance, which this estimate doesn't include. Estimate only; verify before relying on it.
