Home and Business Possibilities! Location! History! Architecture! Convenience! This property in Wissahickon School District has it all. Looking for a great location for a home with a business? This could be it. Great world charm and character in architecture & design, yet modern convenience awaits. If you're looking for a home with separate business building option, look no further. Location, convenience, parking, etc. Whitpain Township guidelines permit many different kinds of businesses in what is lovingly called "The Barn," but it is so much more than your typical barn. Built in 1984 using all the original stone walls, after a fire destroyed the previous barn, it is currently used as an artist's studio with over 3700 sq. feet on 3 flrs. The first floor houses open space, 4 garages, one with a 10 ft high door, as well as a half bath and showroom/office. There is additional outside parking for approx. 7 cars. The second floor is used as an artist's studio, with access through the back directly into the 2nd floor thru dbl doors & a balcony on the front. The 3rd floor houses an office and storage. Windows line the entire building on both sides offering great light & ventilation. In addition, the main house, built in 1792, has 6 bedrooms, 2 full baths, living room, dining room, kitchen, family room, office, bonus room and 1/2 bath w/ laundry. The home highlights many of the original structural features: built in cabinetry, two fireplaces, hardwood floors throughout, original hand blown glass windowpanes, and some of the original stonework. Enter through the front door with its stone paved walkway, or through the back porch (added in 2000). This home boasts 3503 sq ft of comfort with central air on the 2nd and 3rd fls and for the kitchen and family room on the 1st fl. Solar panels provide great savings on electric usage as well as money for extra kilowatts generated. The property is currently serviced by public water and a septic system. Finally, filling out the property is an outbuilding with electric and water all sitting on 2 idyllic acres, & backing up to Meadowlands providing privacy and dedicated open space. Possibilities limited only by your imagination and township regs -- a home business, gardener's dream, idyllic retreat, or even farmette. We don't believe that George Washington slept here, but you could.
