Farmhouse/National Folk

Step into history with this one-of-a-kind home in Auburn, originally built in 1878 as a one-room schoolhouse. The Mengel School House was decommissioned in 1943 and converted into a residence in 1947, this cherished property has been in the same family for 78 years. This solid home has 30-inch stone walls and beautiful original windows on the lower level, offering a glimpse into its storied past. The second floor was later added and just recently finished into living space. The layout includes three upstairs bedrooms, two full baths (one on each floor), and a spacious laundry/mudroom at the rear of the home. New furnace installed in October. Enjoy relaxing on the enclosed front porch, perfect for unwinding after a long day with a fenced in front yard perfect for the kids or pets. Outside, the property offers plenty of space and functionality, featuring a large shed with a wooden deck, a dog kennel with an additional shed, and a two-story workshop with two-bay garage providing ample storage and workspace . The through-driveway offers access from both Route 895 and Fort Lebanon Road which is very convenient. Additionally, this property also includes the parcel across the street which makes the total acreage 3. 4 acres. Mature beautiful landscaping will amaze in the Spring along the driveway and all over the property. While the home could use some repairs and updates, it presents endless potential for those looking to restore and personalize a piece of local history. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to own a unique, character-filled home! Schedule your private showing today!
