Fort Washington, PA 19034

Big Price Reduction! "The Union School of Whitemarsh" is an historic one room school house (1773 on National Registry of Historic Places) and attached school master's home (c1835). This property was completely restored in the early 1980's and has been well maintained ever since. Over the years the school house portion (518 S Bethlehem Pike) has been used as a print shop, a small restaurant (Tea and Gossip), an architect's office and a kitchen & bath remodeling showroom. Until the restaurant closed in 1986 there was internal access between the school house portion and the residential portion. This access could be re-established with minimum modification. With the entire property being zoned "Village Commercial" the approximate 1000 sq. ft. space has many options. The attached home (516 S Bethlehem Pike) is approximately 2700 sq. ft. and features 3 bedrooms, 1 full and 2 half baths, a large eat-in kitchen (used to be a full restaurant kitchen), a family room with gas fireplace and a beautiful living room with cathedral ceilings leading to a picturesque patio with a green house. The home also features a huge multi-level basement with LOTS of storage space (one portion was a wine cellar) and an attached two car garage. This portion of the property has only been used recently for residential purposes but with it's updated zoning it could be a saloon, offices or even retail space. There is ample parking for just about any business. Any professional that would enjoy living next door to their spacious office would find this property attractive and affordable. It truly is a unique property and with a little updating it could be spectacular. Please make your appointment soon. (Pictures coming soon but can be seen by pulling up MLS# PAMC2003218)
