Homes & Floor Plans

Hershey's Mill offers a range of attached and detached home styles, including clustered townhomes, carriage homes, and some
freestanding residences. Many homes feature one-floor or primarily first-floor living, often with a first-floor bedroom suite,
while others offer multi-level layouts with additional bedroom and living space on upper or lower levels.

Common features may include open living and dining areas, eat-in kitchens, patios or decks, and either attached or nearby
parking and garage arrangements, depending on the village. Because each village and property has its own design and update
history, it's important to review individual listings and recent sales to understand how a particular home compares within
the community.

Exterior maintenance and much of the common-area upkeep are handled through the association structure, adding to the
low-maintenance appeal of the neighborhood for many residents.

HOA, Amenities & Neighborhood Setting

Hershey's Mill has a master association along with individual village homeowner associations. Community materials indicate that
monthly fees typically support services such as common-area maintenance, portions of exterior upkeep, and access to a variety
of shared facilities. Exact fees and inclusions vary by village and should be reviewed directly with the association or
management company.

Amenities in and around the community include a large outdoor pool, sports complex with racquet sport courts, walking paths,
community gardens, a woodworking shop, a community center with library and gathering spaces, and social venues such as the
historic Sullivan House. Numerous clubs, events, and programs are offered throughout the year, reflecting the community's
active adult focus.

The homes are arranged around Hershey's Mill Golf Club, a private 18-hole course with its own membership options. Prospective
buyers should confirm the current relationship between homeownership and any golf or social memberships directly with the club.
