About This Home

As of January 2024

One of a kind property located on a 1.87+/- acre lot in Governor Mifflin schools. This home is very unique and offers a tremendous amount of possibilities. The property is located in the General Industrial Zoning District. It has made a great home for the current owners and can continue to do so for you. It can also be a fantastic commercial/rental property. Run a business on the premises and use the house as a residential rental? You will really appreciate the amount of off-street parking as you pull up. You enter the home from the rear and will love the privacy of the rear patio as you approach the home. The built-in grill remains. Very convenient laundry room/mud room combo on the main level with extra cabinet storage. Huge eat-in kitchen with plenty of room for a kitchen table and plenty of cabinet space. Spacious first floor that includes a large dining room and huge living room with built in shelving. The living room and dining rooms are large enough that you can have a desk or play area too. The main bath is on this level and features 4' shower and granite top vanity. Huge main bedroom on the 2nd floor with oak flooring, 2 closets plus plenty of eave storage. The second bedroom has a large walk-in closet as well and the safe will remain. The owner recently had the exterior of the home painted as well as the front, sides, trim, and garage doors of the garage. Rubber roof on the main sections of the house. This home has very reasonable taxes in my opinion. Large basement with Bilco-type door for plenty of storage. The garage is huge and features 3 garage doors and 3 man doors. Lots of potential to set these spaces up as you wish. If you just need storage for your vehicles or toys this is the perfect place for you! 1-yr Warranty included with acceptable offer. MUST BE WRITTEN INTO THE OFFER!
