Nestled at the foot of the mountain just outside historic Mercersburg, PA, this striking circa-1875 all-brick home offers nearly 150 years of character on three wooded acres. Original pine hardwood floors, wide windowsills, and authentic wavy glass windows give this home a warmth that simply cannot be replicated — and the living room's open ceiling with exposed original wood beams makes an impression the moment you walk in.
Spanning approximately 2,000 sq ft across three floors plus an unfinished basement, the layout is cozy and full of personality. The kitchen features granite countertops and built-in cabinetry. The main floor also includes a foyer, living room, and a laundry/mudroom. The second floor hosts a primary suite with walk-in closet and en-suite bath, two additional bedrooms, and a second full bath. A finished attic on the third floor provides charming bonus space — perfect as a playroom, studio, or creative retreat.
Major systems were comprehensively overhauled in 2018 with full electrical and plumbing replacements — including complete removal of all knob-and-tube wiring. Central air conditioning was added in 2021 alongside a brand-new full-length front deck. The chimney was professionally lined and repointed in 2023, the stone foundation was freshly repointed in 2025, and the detached garage was fully rebuilt in 2025. The home is heated by oil and a wood stove, and a historic hand-dug well remains on the property.
Outside, the rebuilt two-bay garage with attached carport and animal stall offers excellent utility for hobbyists, small livestock, or equipment storage. The fenced backyard is ready for animals, and three acres of wooded privacy surround the property — all with wonderful neighbors nearby.
