Welcome to 14 River Road - your chance to own a piece of local history. Originally known as the Packhorse Inn and dating back to 1648, this is the oldest structure to the West of the Susquehanna and was renowed for its rum. Situated at the northwest corner of the ground where the Susquehanna and Juniata rivers meet at Duncan's island, the inn at Amity Hall was located where a system of canals met in the 1800's and served as a respite for many weary travelers. Charles Dickens himself once visited the area. The building consists of two sections - an addition completed by the current owner in 2014 and the original builing constucted of masonry and stone. The addition section of the first floor has a modern kitchen with stainless steel appliances, wooden cabinets, and an island. Adjoining the kitchen, there is a spacious living room area with cathedral ceilings, beautiful pine beams, and a wood stove perfect for keeping warm on those cold winter nights. There is also a full bathroom and a laundry room accessed from the living room area. The original section of the first floor contains two rooms - a dining room area and a study. Both rooms have hardwood flooring; their own stone fireplace; and chestnut beams, which add to the historic character of the builing. Proceeding up the stairs, you'll find two bedrooms and a full bath, which are also part of the original structure. Each of the bedrooms have their own fireplace, chestnut beams, and hardwood floors. The second bedroom also affords the prospective resident a commanding view of the surrounding area. On the opposite side of the second floor, you'll find a spacious third bedroom in a loft area, which was part of the 2014 addition. This area features cathedral ceilings, new windows, and an attractive view of the living room area below. Located on over three acres of land, the property is zoned as R-2 and could be converted into townhomes, condos, a camp ground, or a winery. Come see this property and explore its potential today! You'll be glad you did and you may even learn some history in the process!
