Original hardwood floors, doors, and woodwork; 23’ ceilings; brilliant and impressive open floor plan – an estimated 4,572 square feet exquisitely transformed! Offering plenty of space for entertainment, quaint gatherings, maybe the possibility of an Airbnb, or simply your own personal, serene getaway! Enter the home’s spacious foyer, flanked by the striking original wood staircases on either side. The expansive primary bedroom is located on the main level and large enough to include a private sitting area (or maybe you would prefer a workout space!) and includes a stunning ensuite bath. Three other bedrooms on the main level, along with another full bath and laundry. Striking updated light fixtures brilliantly enhance the reclaimed wood flooring along the spacious main floor hallway. Moving upstairs to a landing area roomy enough to be turn into a possible reading/relaxing niche, you’ll find the impressive double door opening into the home’s immense main living space with eye-catching exposed original trusses and architectural detail, plus the 170 year old original embossed tin wallcoverings on many walls and original flooring . The gorgeous galley kitchen with a large 12’ island, dining area, great room space, custom fireplace (propane insert) and a ‘secret’ room behind the fireplace that could be used as a pantry, converted to wine storage or whatever you wish! The possible functions of this main living space are endless – large enough to entertain comfortably, while peaceful enough to enjoy a weekend of relaxation! New extra-large energy efficient windows for plenty of beautiful natural lighting throughout. The second floor also has a half bath and storage room. Outdoor spaces have been meticulously enhanced to include well-planned perennial gardens that are easily maintained, as well as patio space and a raised kitchen garden. Conveniently located with easy access to various local amenities (restaurants, shops, farm fresh produce, etc.!), and not far from many recreational activities, including the Appalachian Trail, Cowans Gap State Park, Whitetail Mountain Ski Resort, Penn National Golf Course, State Game Land – but let’s not forget the added convenience between Pittsburgh and Philadelphia, just over an hour outside of DC and Baltimore, and an easy commute to NYC for fun weekend getaways!
