Property Description
Imagine Christmas 2023 in your own home with stockings hung from your own Fireplace. Original architectural Corbels that embellish the roofline have been well preserved as are larger cantilevered Corbels over Entryway. House is adjacent to Mechanicsburg's Historic District with many fine restored homes. Enjoy tree lined streets along your walk to downtown shops and events. Plus low taxes! High ceilings and living room's Federal style, marble surround fireplace add to home's character and ambiance (much of all that is missing in many flips)! Room for dining if needed in Living Rm. Greywash wood floors. Spacious kitchen with center (wheeled/mobile) island, SS Appliances (gas range new in past year). Room for table & chairsas well. A Half Bath has been started off Living Room -- has tile, wallpaper, electric and heat but no plumbing. Semi-enclosed Porch off kitchen provides a great venue for private entertaining. Adjacent to porch is a 1.5 story (had once been Servant's Quarters) small dwelling mostly used for storage but has a neat She Shed area. OR it could easily become a garage if remove side wall. 2nd story balcony totally rebuilt 12/22. Below is a new 1st flr Rear Enclosure to porch new 12/22 (although door and transom are from a nearby 100 year old structure). All new faucets inside and out. New plumbing pipes to tub. 2 new insulated, fire resistant entrance doors 9/23. Newer replacement windows. Newer metal roofs on porch (2018) and rear addition (2021). Reclaimed hardwood siding on rear addition, shed and porch installed fall 2022 thru 2023. Economical and efficient hot water baseboard heat throughout (See corrected, lower annual heat cost). Pavered area for parking adjacent to rear door for convenience. Nicely landscaped lot with attractive cedar fencing, 3 Maple trees and several perennial flower beds for a colorful show Spring, Summer & Fall. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms and an adjacent sunny Sitting Room that's also a perfect kid's playroom or an office (at top of stairs). Walk up, stand up attic (will be cleaned out by sale) has floor boards throughout. Basement is 95% waterproofed. Has newer wood access stairs. Happy holiday memories have filled this very light filled home! A few updates still in progress. Additional insulation just installed to rear kitchen wall. Tub enclosure will become white. Sale contingent on seller finding suitable housing. Seller is a PA licensed REALTOR. See corrected annual gas cost which is for heat, hot water, cooking & baking. All utilities' annual cost was around $2k.
