"A one of the kind" type of historical property that played a key role in the history of Lower Paxton Township. Built in1900, this property was the local post office and 1st telephone phone station. In addition to the now renovated 5 bedroom 2 full bathrooms updated residential home, it also has the original 2 story barn that once housed the horses for the postal service/ converted to garage/workshop space with separate electric meter. This structure is ready for a visionary person to create something magnificent with the est. 1700 sq feet of space that is located to the back of the property. The local Village zoning and Dauphin County Commercial zoning of this property offers the opportunity for a commercial business and/or residential use for an optimal "at home" business opportunity. Imagine an art studio, workshop or other ideas that would utilize this great space. The sellers have completely restored the home to the current updated 5 bedroom home. The 2nd floor has been completely repainted with a brand new full bath update. The 1st floor primary bedroom and en-suite with a massive soaking tub is a desirable feature to this home. The updated kitchen has a large butler pantry that could store enough food, paper products, gadgets and cooking tools to meet the needs of today's modern family. The dining area/ eat in kitchen, entry mudroom along with the updated "summer kitchen" that has been turned into a private study or extra family room make this a great home for family.
