The Edward Heston House: dating back prior to 1845, this plaster-over-stone home is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and features a charming two bedroom dwelling in combination with a business. Located directly in (not just adjacent to) the center of downtown Doylestown, enjoy immediate walking access to the shopping district, County Theater, Michener Museum, and restaurant row. Original wide plank pine floors, deep set windows and custom built ins throughout, enter through the bright due-South facing Sunroom with oversized windows, perfect for any plant lover and a great spot to sit and people watch. The main level includes a large home office/meeting room which can double as a dining room, a formal living room and full kitchen with back entrance from the ample paved parking lot (room for easily 4-6 vehicles). The private back yard features a stone terrace area, stands of mint and blueberry and quince bushes, and an attached shed/storage structure. Looking for more space? The existing footprint could offer a great opportunity to expand the upper floors and create something customized to your liking. New roof, H/W heater, newer Central AC and minisplit, radon remediation system, partial exterior CCTV and security system ready, etc. Consult Borough Zoning online for explanation of dwelling-in-combination and other potential uses by right.
