Church Home in PA near Cumberland MD. Please contact seller by phone (814)842-9767.   This beautiful 1400 square foot dwelling is in a valley between mountains in Southern Pennsylvania, only 26 miles south of Bedford and 15 miles north of historic Cumberland, Maryland.  The Church, built in 1877, has been converted into a single family dwelling, leaving the Great Room basically in tact, except for two large walk-in closets, topped with a sleeping loft and a library loft.  The Sunday school room was converted into a large Master Bedroom, which opens to the back yard and is handicap accessible with a concrete walk way to the paved parking area.  The foyer became a  kitchen with laundry, and the his-and-her bathrooms became a full bathroom with two doors.    This church home overlooks the quiet town of Hyndman and is a block above the old B&O railroad line to the south.  The almost-half acre lot is sided to the east, with woods and a mountain, and walking to the top reveals a view of the entire valley. Woods are to the north. To the west, is a quiet street below, backed by a view of mountains. The church has its own well and town septic. This property has good energy and the area feels comfortable and safe.   The Great Room is 36 X 24 with 11 foot ceilings and 8 foot windows. In the front, three large thermal pane windows have lower, rainbow color, stain glass panels, for privacy, with a red rose in the center one.  The large Master Bedroom is 20 X 14 and opens onto the Great Room through French Doors with side panels. It has three large casement windows and another window with primary color, stain glass panels. A glass-topped door opens to the back yard and mountain.  There is a large fenced-in, side yard that is half shaded. The Church is vinyl sided. The steeple has a bench and a view of distant mountain ranges, a train curve, and great sunsets!   A new oil furnace is on a large concrete slab in a dirt basement, which has a walk-out door. Insulation has been blown into the walls and ceilings, making it easy and economical to heat in the winter. In addition, there is a large pellet stove in the Great Room, which can carry the winter heating, if you like to see a fire. Only on the few coldest days, do you need the addition of the circulating ceiling fans to enhance the warmth.  Also, because the oil furnace will heat the place in minutes, when going out, the kitchen area, which has all the water, can be closed off and simply heated by a propane space heater, conserving all other fuel. The water pipes are on the first floor and angled for easy draining for prolonged absences. There is an efficient, on-demand, hot water system and kitchen range, that are also fueled by propane.   There is an metal storage building, 8 X 10, with a floor, and a large, paved parking area. The Church is less than a mile from the town fire department, and less than 1000 feet from a hydrant, which is excellent for low cost insurance. The walk to downtown crosses over picturesque Wills Creek, and the town has a small grocery store with deli, gas pumps, restaurant, pharmacy, post office, hardware store with lumber yard, a Dollar General, notary, and many churches. Taxes are $354.   Please contact seller by phone (814)842-9767.
