About this land
Set on the north side of Blue Mountain just off Blue Mountain Parkway north of Linglestown, this 62 +/- acre tract in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania offers a rare combination of privacy, access and location within a short drive of Harrisburg. The property runs up the north slope and takes in a portion of the mountain crest, placing it in the heart of some of south central Pennsylvania's best known ridge country and adjoining the general area of Boyd Big Tree Preserve Conservation Area, a 1,025 acre public tract that straddles Blue Mountain. Access is a real strength here. The property is reached by a gated entry on a well maintained gravel road through an established right of way, so a buyer has controlled, year round access from day one. A second deeded right of way also conveys with the property. No driveway has been constructed on that second access yet, but it gives a future owner flexibility in how and where they choose to utelize the tract. Once at the property, a nicely maintained dirt trail leads up into the heart of the property and can be walked or ridden by four wheeler or side by side, which makes it easy to reach the upper ground for hunting, camping or simply enjoying the land. The land is almost entirely wooded in mixed timber of varying size and age. The timber is not being marketed for its harvest value, but it does exactly what a recreational buyer wants it to do, which is hold wildlife and provide cover, mast and privacy. A small clearing is already in place on the tract and gives a new owner a head start, whether that is a camping spot, a food plot, or the beginning of a building pad. Topography is varied. There are gentle grades in places that lend themselves to building, along with steeper ground toward the top of the mountain that creates the elevation change, bedding cover and travel corridors deer use on a ridge like this. Dauphin County sits in the middle of quality Pennsylvania big woods hunting. Whitetail deer, spring gobblers, black bear and small game all use this country, and the adjacent public ground expands the acreage a hunter can work well beyond the property lines. For a buyer who wants more than a hunting tract, the north side setting and elevation on the mountain open the door to a cabin, a recreational retreat, or a legacy home site with views out over the valley below. The property is already divided into two parcels of similar size. That gives a buyer options going forward, whether that is building on one and holding the other, keeping the tract intact as a single block, or planning for the future. The land is currently enrolled in Pennsylvania's Clean and Green program under Act 319, which keeps the annual carrying cost low. This is raw land in the best sense of the term. There are no utilities, no well and no septic on site, and no perc testing has been completed to date. What is here is the canvas, and it is a good one: acreage, access, elevation, cover and location. Properties with gated access, deeded alternate access and public land nearby do not come available often in this part of Dauphin County. Contact the Agent/Land Specialist to schedule a showing.

Questions to ask before you buy
Good questions for any home near the slopes.
- How is the property reached in winter, and who plows the road and driveway?A short straight-line distance can still mean a long or seasonal drive. Private roads, gates and mountain passes all shape winter access.
- Is there documented ski access from the property (trail, easement, lift), and does it transfer to a buyer?Rights to cross neighboring land or use a lift come from recorded easements and agreements, so a ski-in or ski-out description is where the question starts.
- Are there association, resort or club fees, and what do they cover?Some ski-area communities charge fees that cover only certain amenities, so ask what lift tickets, passes and services are included.
- Are there rules on renting the home short-term or long-term?Local ordinances, association covenants and deed restrictions all set rental rules, and they differ from place to place.
- What do heating, snow removal, winterization and utilities cost over a season?Ownership costs in snow country often run higher than the mortgage estimate suggests.
- For land: is there legal year-round access, and what utilities, septic and building rules apply?Seasonal roads and steep lots can limit what can be built and when it can be reached.
