Property Description

OPEN HOUSE CANCELLED - Located in the quaint hamlet of Railroad, PA ( do not try to GPS this house. Go to Railroad, PA and look across from the Jackson House Hotel) this Circa 1850's brick federal home stands out as much for it's sprawling front lawn, bisected with a walking path and Railroad Run spring as it does the curb appeal of it's federal facade with balcony and 4 impressive stories! The lower most level is walkout to a charming brick patio. Inside that level is a cool old English Pub or speakeasy style bar room, a large den with wood stove and uniquely styled stairs (well known books!) and a smaller “library room” as well as a full bath and laundry round out the lowest level. The next level up is the main level which can be entered from the gate by the garage and through the new portico. This floor holds a formal dining room, a gorgeous library that smells of pine from the new tall bookshelves the current owners installed complete with ladder. Imagine cozying up to a good read in this special space! There is a butler's pantry just outside the dining room ( with working dumbwaiter) and up a small set of stairs is the modern addition of a cook's kitchen. Stainless steel appliances, large stove, island. Cheery skylights, granite counters. Head out to the large deck through this door and enjoy the back private courtyard with brick artistically laid to create whimsical spaces throughout the outdoor space. A waterfall, pergola with wisteria, a large fenced garden…and tons of gorgeous plantings will surprise and delight you as the seasons turn. Come back in through the portico and head upstairs to find a small balcony accessible on the landing of the turned staircase and then onto the next level with the large primary bedroom, a second bedroom and a spacious full bath along with an office nook. Continue on up to the next and highest level and feel like your head is in the clouds in the large bedroom which can easily fit 2 queen sized beds with plenty of space. A storage area and charming nautical styled bath finish out this floor. The current owners have added charm and peace of mind since purchasing this home in 2019. With the help of engineers they replaced the retaining wall next to the garage to the tune of $30k. This is public sewer with a grinder pump and tank that's the owners responsibility and which was just recently completely replaced for $17k. The front porch roof was replaced. The rest of the roofs were inspected and given a thumb's up. Electric was updated when they moved in. Mini splits were added. There is efficient natural gas water radiators to heat along with two wood stoves for extra cheer. There is a 2 car garage and very large workshop attached. You could knock down a wall in there and get a four car garage if so desired, but that workshop is sweet! All you have to do is move in and enjoy. Take a walk on the Heritage Rail trail or ride the excursion Steam train on the Northern Central Railway. The charm to this area is in the small town way of life alongside some great outdoor features, character of this proud old home and the opportunity to live a special life here.
