Property Description
Properties like this don't become available often! The Hess homestead, circa 1875, has been lovingly restored and maintained by the owners of the past 24 years. While keeping all the charm and unique characteristics, this property provides all the modern amenities discerning buyers are seeking today, including an inground Fronheiser pool! The stunning lot comprises 1.8 acres of pure serenity, where you can sit on your back deck and let nature sooth you as the deer come to visit. While the property enjoys public water and sewer, the charm of the spring house and smoke house are still present. Past the beautiful landscaping, up the brown stone steps, you will find a huge wrap around deck to enter the home. The entry leads to the first-floor family room, showcased by the period fireplace which has been converted to a wood burning stove. This room also has a spiral staircase leading directly to the Master bedroom, a center staircase, powder room, hall closet and French doors exiting to the pool deck which has an automatic awning. The eat in kitchen is extremely spacious, offering gas cooking and loads of counter space. The third room is the original homestead, where you will find another huge fireplace, spiral staircase to the 2nd bedroom, and an alternate entrance. On the second floor you will find a wide hallway with laundry area. The Master bedroom has a newly remodeled en suite bath and three closets. Spacious 2nd and 3rd bedrooms, along with a hall bath, complete this floor. Both the Master bedroom and 2nd bedroom provide access to a walk-up attic for more storage options. Now the list of updates: HVAC 2015; Roof 2017; New French Drains 2019; the entire basement has been waterproofed and has a walkout to the driveway. There are several newer windows, and the pool pump and liner were replaced 3 years ago. The home has been inspected and the few items noted are being addressed. .....there is literally nothing to do here but move in!!! ** SHOWINGS DO NOT BEGIN UNTIL THE OPEN HOUSE ON 7/13/19 AT 11 AM **
