Own your own piece of local history! The Kurtz home built in 1800 and moved to its present location in 1865 sits on a 1.7 acre corner lot bordering a stream. Large eat in kitchen has a walk-in fireplace. Spacious dining room and finally a living room with a wood burning fireplace giving ample heat on cold nights and hand painted decor on the walls including painted bricks on the fireplace and a realistic looking bookshelf complete with painted books. Also a first floor powder room and laundry. Newer commercial grade water heater. 3 bedrooms on the 2nd floor (one is a walkthrough). The bathroom has been remodeled with new floor, vanity, sink and toilet. You will find original random-width hardwood flooring throughout the home. There is a creek nearby that runs through part the property, a natural spring, functioning well (public water and sewer services the home) and a cold cellar. The stone walls are over 12" thick and are two layers with the exterior layer being mason cut stone blocks with deep windowsills. The location is private and yet so close to stores, entertainment and highways. 2 zone oil heat, storage shed and plenty of cut stone from old barns that were on the property. The basement has concrete floors and can offer additional living space when finished. Add your finishing touches to make this property shine.
