3 Orchard Road

Forget the wine for a moment. Picture the best seat in the Susquehanna River Valley, already cleared, already established, waiting for whatever you decide to make of it. Here is what most buyers need to hear. Most people have no desire to run a winery, and that is exactly what makes this rare. The property is priced for the real estate and the buildings that already stand on it, not for the business. The hard, expensive groundwork is done. What you do next is up to you. The setting is 27 acres on a hill in Perry County, high above the river. Seven acres are planted in producing vines, with room for up to ten more, and the rows themselves are part of the view. The blocks include Chardonnay, Cabernet Franc, Riesling, Vidal, Seyval, Chancellor, Valvin Muscat, Cayuga, De Chaunac, and Dutchess. Even if you never pick a single grape, you will not get tired of looking at them in the morning light. Everything you could need is already built and turnkey. A timber framed tasting room with a granite topped bar, retail shelves, and tall windows that pull the valley inside. A separate event hall that seats a crowd under ceiling fans, with its own bar, polished concrete floors, and glass doors that frame the ridgeline. A working production building with stainless tanks, a bottling line, and barrels. A restroom building with an accessible ramp. Covered porches and patios. A fire pit pavilion at the edge of the vines. A wooden ceremony stage set right into the vineyard, where a couple can say their vows with the river behind them. Open lawn for games, for music, for gathering. The winery has operated under beer, wine, and food licenses. Those do not transfer with the sale, but they are straightforward for a new owner to obtain, and a turnkey equipment package is available for anyone who wants to keep it running. And then there is the house down below on Route 11-15. A two story farmhouse sits on just over one acre, and a subdivision is already in place. It has the kind of character you cannot fake. Original wide plank floors, tall windows with deep trim, brick chimneys, a covered porch, and a big country kitchen with a center island. A vintage garage with classic red doors stands beside it, and a long equipment garage sits on the grounds. That subdivision is the key that unlocks everything. Live in the house and run the winery. Rent the house for steady income while the vineyard does its work. Sell the house off entirely and pour those funds into turning the winery into a private home with a view almost no one else will ever have. Keep the house, rent it, and convert a barn into your dream home instead. Run the whole place as a wedding and event venue. Farm the vines and sell the fruit and juice, with no license and no storefront required. Or simply keep making wine. Most properties give you one good option. This one gives you seven. The hard infrastructure is handled too. Geothermal heat, 400 amp service, well water with filtration, on site septic, metal roofs, and 54 parking spaces. Millersburg sits just across the water by historic ferry. Harrisburg is a short drive south. You can build a home almost anywhere. You can plant a vineyard, pour a foundation, raise a barn. What you cannot build, no matter what you spend, is this hill and this view. That is the one thing this property already has, and the one thing you will not find better anywhere else.
