Property Description
The main residence features 5 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms, and 1 half bath thoughtfully arranged across multiple levels. Three spacious bedrooms on the second floor each enjoy their own ensuite full bathroom, creating comfortable accommodations for overnight guests. Several bedrooms also include sitting rooms, offering additional places to unwind. The top level provides two more bedrooms and another full bathroom, allowing plenty of flexibility for guests, owners, or additional living space.
Throughout the home, expansive common areas invite conversation and gathering. Hardwood floors, crown molding, and preserved period details reflect the craftsmanship of the home's early-20th-century origins, while two welcoming porches and a second-floor balcony extend the living spaces outdoors. A secondary staircase, often referred to as a maid's staircase, connects the main level to the upper floor and adds another authentic element of the home's history. A fully accessible fire escape provides additional functionality for the multi-level layout.
Designed to support both everyday living and hospitality, the spacious kitchen was added in 2020, transforming an area that previously had no kitchen into a beautifully equipped space with granite countertops, a breakfast bar, pantry, and oversized island offering generous room for preparing and serving meals.
Beyond overnight accommodations, the property's gracious gathering spaces create opportunities to host memorable occasions such as micro-weddings, wedding showers, baby showers, celebrations, and other intimate events, subject to applicable regulations and approvals. Its established use as both a Bed and Breakfast and event venue adds another dimension to this remarkable property.
A separate 1,700-square-foot carriage house further expands the possibilities. Original barn doors preserve its historic character, while the second floor, renovated in 2025, offers three bedrooms, a living room, full bathroom, and dedicated makeup area. The lower level provides a fully functional office, another full bathroom, and abundant storage. Importantly, the carriage house utilities are completely separate from those serving the main residence, providing additional independence and flexibility between the two structures.
The location completes the experience. Situated in the heart of downtown Hanover—known as the Snack Capital of the World—the property is within walking distance of local breweries, shops, restaurants, and community destinations. Gettysburg National Military Park and Codorus State Park are also within convenient reach, offering even more for visitors to explore.
Rich in history yet ready for its next chapter, 252 Frederick Street presents a rare opportunity to continue a highly successful turn-key Bed and Breakfast, explore commercial possibilities, create an extraordinary residence, or bring together hospitality, events, and residential living within one distinctive Hanover property.
