Property Description
Highest and best offers by Sunday at 4:00 pm. Welcome to this 1850 farmhouse nestled in the heart of Skippack. The currant use of the property is as single family, a cottage that is currently rented, and a rental apartment over the garage. This home offers a unique blend of historic character and endless potential for restoration to its original charm. Situated on nearly an acre of land, the property provides a serene retreat while still being conveniently located within walking distance to Skippack's lively shops and restaurants. The main farmhouse, though in need of significant renovation, contains ample space for comfortable living. Upon entering, you're welcomed by the dining room with hardwood floors and the timeless appeal of deep window sills. The family room provides a cozy atmosphere for evenings by the fireplace and sits right off the living room. The kitchen presents an opportunity to restore it to its former glory for family gatherings. Upstairs there are four nice size bedrooms and two full baths. There are two additional rooms on the third floor that could be converted into extra living space. There is also a full attic for storage. Outside, the expansive grounds offer endless opportunities for outdoor enjoyment, whether it's hosting a barbecue, tending to the garden, or simply soaking in the peaceful countryside ambiance. In addition to the main farmhouse, the property features two separate rental units, providing an excellent opportunity for supplemental income or multi-generational living. The cottage has one bedroom and one bath is currently rented. The second unit above the two car garage has another one bedroom, one bath unit. With its idyllic setting, historic charm, and convenient location, this 1850 farmhouse presents a rare find in the heart of Skippack. Whether you're looking to undertake a major renovation project or build your own retreat on this tranquil property, the possibilities are endless. Please note, this home is being sold completely "as is," with the estate making no repairs. Cash buyers only, as financing cannot be obtained for this property. Buyer is responsible for any township requirements. Serious investors only. Gerald A. Rader, estate heir, is a licensed real estate associate in Pennsylvania.
