This 125-year-old townhouse in one of Harrisburg’s smallest, but most well-known neighborhoods, mixes timeless charm and modern luxury.
“From the moment you step inside, you’ll fall in love with the exposed brick walls, gleaming hardwood floors, and freshly painted interior that highlight the home’s character and warmth,” according to the listing.
The three-story home features three bedrooms, a modern kitchen and fenced-in backyard.
Premium finishes, a functional eat-in area, and elegant cabinetry highlight the kitchen.
With three levels of living space, there’s plenty of room to relax and unwind.
Located in the Shipoke neighborhood, the 1,368-square-foot home makes a great first impression upon entering, with an exposed brick wall extending from a neat corner built-in by the front door, all the way up the stairs.
The living room offers an unobstructed view to the dining area and the kitchen.
The second floor and third floor both display the beautiful, original hardwood flooring. A great architectural feature is the original staircase tucked into the corner of the second floor landing, leading to the third floor.
The staircase, built in the style of the period, has a winder – that is, the part where the staircase turns and the treads are narrower on the inside of the turn than they are on the outside.
The second floor bedroom continues the exposed brick theme with brick in the room’s closet. Other details of the first floor include a laundry room and the full bath.
Up the winder stairs to the third floor are the two remaining bedrooms.
The home is currently operating as a successful short-term rental. The property could continue in this way or once again become a permanent residence.
Part of a row of colorfully-painted townhouses, the home is located near the Washington Street western boundary of Shipoke between South Front and South Second Streets.
Located at 317 S. River St. in Harrisburg, the home is listed at $199,000, with sale pending, by agent Lauren Gardner with Keller Williams of Central PA.
