    Solid Bones, Great Location, Real Potential A well-built 1951 home with genuine character, 245 N Main St offers the right buyer a smart opportunity in the heart of historic Mercersburg. The attractive stone-front and stucco exterior turns heads at the curb, and inside, original hardwood floors set a warm foundation for whatever vision comes next. The 1,240 sq ft layout includes 2 bedrooms and 1 full bath, with a partial basement for storage and a 2-car carport for everyday convenience. Baseboard hot water heat keeps winters comfortable and is a system investors and renovators appreciate for its reliability and even warmth. The large backyard is a genuine asset — room to entertain, garden, or expand — and the walkable North Main Street location puts you steps from Mercersburg's small-town charm, dining, and community amenities. This is a home that's ready for its next chapter. Whether you're an investor looking for solid value, a buyer with vision and a renovation loan, or someone ready to roll up their sleeves — the price reflects the opportunity and the upside is real. The General Commercial zoning opens the door to flexible use possibilities — inquire for details. Schedule your showing today and see the potential for yourself.
