Situated in Harrisburg City's Midtown neighborhood known as ENGLETON, this historic row home is illustrative of that special area between 2nd, Kelker, 3rd, and Reily Streets. ENGLETON was specifically designed in the late 1890's to express "both the Queen Anne and Italianate architectural forms" during a time when the City was quickly expanding. (HMdb.org, "Engleton" 2016). 1608 PENN STREET's interior beautifully reflects the original style of this specific period in Harrisburg's history but it includes the modern comforts of an Upgraded Kitchen, large Upgraded Bathrooms, Gas Heat and Central A/C. The large Master Bedroom on the 3rd Floor has it's own Full Bathroom. The Second Floor has another Bedroom, another Full Bathroom, and a "Flex Bedroom" that can also be an intentional office with direct access to the Back Balcony. A dedicated Laundry Area is just off the kitchen on the first floor. This special Neighborhood provides a unique experience in home ownership and delightful walkability to explore eateries, coffee shops, taverns, year-round produce vendors, and art galleries.
