This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of history with this Historic property consisting of (2) two original stone homes. These homes are nestled between Canoe Mountain and Tussey Mountain.
Both are beautifully restored and part of the Mount Etna Iron Furnace National Historic Complex founded in 1807. The main house was built in 1830 and was originally used as the Mount Etna Iron Furnace General Store. It has been completely restored and turned into a 3 bedroom 2 1/2 bath home.
The second house was originally built in 1790 and was also completely restored. The home was originally the Gristmill Foreman’s Residence and is now being used as a profitable Airbnb. It contains an open floor plan with 1 bedroom, 1 full bathroom, and a modern kitchen.
The houses sit on approximately 8 acres and Roaring Run Trout creek runs the whole length of the property. The Frankstown Branch of the Juniata River and the Rails to Trail are within walking distance from the house. These locations offer excellent fishing/hunting and hiking activities.
The property also consists of a 2 1/2 car garage and a large storage outbuilding.
All appliances are less than a year old along with the hot water heater. Also, the roofs on all the buildings have been replaced.
The main house consists of 2 wood-burning fireplaces and a propane fireplace. The main house also contains a new pellet stove. The Airbnb home consists of the original stone fireplace.
The attic in the main house is partially finished and is currently being used as an office.
The main house and Airbnb have the original wood floors throughout.
