Located within walking distance of Honesdale’s vibrant restaurant and shopping district, Church Street, Central Park, kayak launches, and scenic river walks, this home provides easy access to everything the town has to offer. Essential services, such as hospitals and supermarkets, are only minutes away, making it an ideal spot for both convenience and relaxation. This property also features a wooded parcel directly behind the house, bringing a serene touch of nature to an in-town setting. The house itself combines the elegant design elements of the 1800s with the practical efficiency of farmhouse construction. Original wood floors, high moldings, and French doors reflect the charm of the Victorian era, while the space’s layout showcases the more economical use of space typical of farmhouses from that time. The main level includes a cozy dining room, a spacious living room with an electric fireplace, a well-appointed kitchen, a coat room, and a convenient laundry closet. On the second floor, you’ll find three bedrooms, including a master with a walk-in closet, a full bathroom, and a hallway closet. The third floor offers attic space with a versatile area that could easily serve as a playroom or an additional guest room. Modern updates add comfort and efficiency, including a gas furnace, on-demand hot water, and large radiators that not only provide efficient heat but also help maintain the home’s historic character. Recent appliances, including a built-in dishwasher, washer, dryer, and a side-by-side refrigerator/freezer, are all included. Outside, the property boasts off-street parking and a driveway, distinctive original stone walls, a charming front porch, and a peaceful back patio surrounded by a stone wall garden. Seasonal flower plantings throughout the property add natural beauty throughout the year. The "L"-shaped parcel extends up the hill in the backyard, with a large, flat area behind the garage apartment/office, perfect for outdoor entertaining. Whether you’re planning a firepit, BBQ, picnic area, or playground, this space is ideal for both relaxation and fun. Previous owners have enjoyed using this area for gatherings and play. The garage apartment/office, which has been used as an art studio and design firm for the past 25 years, offers tremendous potential. With a full bathroom, shower, and its own gas furnace and water heater, this space could easily be converted into a full-time rental or provide a private office or studio. The two-car garage below adds even more flexibility. Zoned for both residential and commercial use, this property offers a variety of possibilities, from being an investment with great rental potential to serving as a home-based business or Bed and Breakfast. Its central location also makes it ideal for families, being close to both public and private schools within the Wayne Highlands School District. This home is being sold as-is, due to lifestyle changes for the current owners, offering a fantastic opportunity for anyone looking to settle in a safe, friendly community, raise a family, start a rental business, or operate a home-based business, all while being just a short drive from so many outdoor activities. Honesdale is a mere three-hour drive from the NYC metro area and about the same from Philadelphia, making it the perfect weekend getaway or full-time retreat. ****AS IS, WHERE IS - NO CONTINGENCIES FOR INSPECTION****
