Tucked atop a hilltop overlooking the historic town of Railroad Pennsylvania is the towns former 2 room schoolhouse. The quaint historic town with it's general store and single room post office owes it’s existence and it’s name to what became the North Central Railway, built to connect Baltimore, MD and Harrisburg, PA. The town now features several bed and breakfasts, a brew pub, and a crab house. The County Park’s Heritage Rail Trail along with the Northern Central Railway excursion steam train also flows through the center of town. The home, originally a two-room schoolhouse, was built in 1913 and remained in use until 1956. At some point after that, the property was converted to a single family home. Then, in 2000, the property was converted to two apartments on the main level and a studio apartment on the lower level. The current owner purchased the property in 2018 and began renovations to convert it back to a single family dwelling. The main level front space was maintained as the current living unit while the renovations were taking place throughout the remainder of the home. It features 2 bedrooms, 1 full bath with laundry hook up, and an office. The final product will only be limited by your imagination…single family, multi-unit, Airbnb…you decide! Soaring ceilings, fabulous brick, stone foundation and original wood floors are just a few of the unique features that adorn this fantastic property. Be sure not to miss the brick archways and curved stone corridor in the basement, a perfect location for your wine cellar. And did I mention that it is situated on 1.14 acres containing 2 parcels! Conveniently located within walking distance of The Heritage Rail Trail, a quick drive to The North Central Railway of York, breweries, restaurants, boutique & antique shopping and so much more! See associated docs for a list of renovations/updates completed within the last 5 years. Don’t miss your opportunity to own this amazing property!
