Description
Nestled in the peaceful village of Spring Mills, this beautifully restored 4-bedroom, 3-full-bath historic home offers timeless character, thoughtful updates, and exceptional flexibility. Built in 1899 and carefully preserved over the past decade, the 2,258-square-foot residence blends original craftsmanship with tasteful modern improvements. From the moment you arrive, you’ll appreciate the home’s stunning vintage woodwork, original hardware, and original 1899 glass windows all lovingly maintained to preserve the property’s historic charm. Modern updates to the bathrooms, plumbing, roofing, heating system, and electrical components provide comfort and peace of mind while honoring the home’s heritage. Even removed original features, including porch posts and shutters, have been carefully saved for future restoration possibilities. The property’s unique Village Commercial zoning opens the door to a variety of potential uses including residential living, home business opportunities, rental possibilities, or multigenerational living. A standout feature is the attached private suite with its own entrance, covered porch, ramp access, fireplace, bedroom, bathroom, and living room. Ideal as a first-floor primary suite, in-law quarters, guest space, home office, rental unit, or small business setup, the suite also connects directly to the main home for added flexibility. Outside, the property continues to impress with a two-story barn offering incredible utility and storage. The barn includes a two-car garage on one side, a large garage bay on the other, workshop space, second-floor storage, 220 electric service, and multiple RV hookups. Ample parking includes garage parking plus additional off-street parking areas near both the barn and the house. Set along scenic Sinking Creek just across from the confluence of Penns Creek and Sinking Creek the location offers small-town charm with walkable convenience. Stroll across the bridge to Jodon’s Country Place, enjoy a meal at the Frosty Hook, or visit Valley Wok right next door. The grounds are a gardener’s dream, filled with blooms from late winter through fall including crocus, daffodils, irises, peonies, roses, lilies of the valley, bluebells, honeysuckle, and Rose of Sharon. Edible landscaping includes Asian pears, persimmons, blueberries, raspberries, rhubarb, asparagus, herbs, garlic, potatoes, carrots, zucchini, and more. Major improvements completed over the years include updated PEX plumbing, roof replacement with architectural shingles, new oil burner, chimney rebuilding and repointing, electrical upgrades, porch restorations, bathroom renovations, fresh interior repairs and paint, and certified lead-free water piping. This one-of-a-kind property offers historic beauty, modern functionality, income or business potential, and a truly special creekside setting in the heart of Spring Mills.
