Property Description

Nearly 200 years of Dillsburg history, with a few surprises tucked behind the front door. Welcome to the Bailey House, a distinctive circa-1830 property prominently situated in the heart of Dillsburg. It offers more than 4, 200 square feet of living space and two residential units, the main residence and a separate one-bedroom, one-bath apartment. Tall windows with shutters, architectural detailing and mature landscaping create an impressive first impression. Inside, that character continues with generously sized rooms, wood flooring and fireplaces. The main kitchen has granite countertops, newer flooring and newer appliances. Other improvements include a renovated upstairs bathroom, newer foyer flooring, a redone laundry room, replacement HVAC, a newer fuel oil tank and attic fan, a metal roof over the office and newer propane fireplace logs. The apartment has been completely renovated by the current owners and has its own living room and kitchen with a dining area. The bedroom, bathroom and a large walk-in closet are upstairs. The apartment also has updated kitchen flooring, newer mini-split systems and a separate electric meter. And then there’s what you don’t expect to find in the middle of town. Beyond the home is an unexpectedly spacious backyard with mature trees, established landscaping, black chain-link fencing and a covered patio. The historic 12’ x 12’ summer kitchen is used for garden storage and has electricity, wooden shelving and cabinetry. The property includes an attached two-car garage and a detached 20’ x 30’ carriage house, currently utilized as a workshop. The carriage house has electricity, a loft, backyard access and street-side folding doors. It may also offer potential for a separate garage or storage rental, subject to local requirements and approvals. Located in Dillsburg’s Town Center zoning district, the property offers convenient access to downtown shops, restaurants and major routes.
