Dating back to 1878, this unique property has a noteworthy provenance: General Store, Post Office, Rooming House, Ice-House, Tavern, Station Stop. Imagine its colorful past and create its equally interesting future. Situated at the end of the road, we've endless River and Mountain views and access to the Cheviot boat launch and picnic area. The two-story residence offers a vast Kitchen and formal Dining Room which is flanked by a paneled Living Room and Parlor. There's a small room w/its own access certainly evoking the old Post Office. Up the robust staircase are five bedrooms and one large full bath. Sneak down the back stair to the kitchen for a midnight treat. The second-story porch beckons for limitless views and air. Across the road is a ca1915 640sqft structure (studio?) which enhances this Hamlet property with plenty of options and potential. Yes, the trains pass and blow their whistle! Not for the faint-hearted (or light sleepers!), but for the bold and imaginative.,ROOF:Metal,Level 2 Desc:5 BRS / 1 FULL BATH / UPPER PORCH,AboveGrade:2712,FLOORING:Wood,Level 1 Desc:LR DR KITCH OFFICE DEN PORCH,FOUNDATION:Stone,Basement:Interior Access
