About this property

Own a Piece of History--The 1887 Bristol Township Hall | 3,100 SF | $79,000 A rare chance to own a true piece of local history in the heart of historic Bristol. Built in 1887 as the community's township hall, this two-story, 3,100 SF landmark is a blank canvas ready for a visionary new owner--and at $79,000, it's priced to move. Zoned commercial and located in Dover Township, which has no zoning restrictions, the property offers extraordinary flexibility. Imagine an income-producing Airbnb or short-term rental, a neighborhood pub or coffee shop, a creative studio, event space, or a one-of-a-kind live/work residence. Few properties give you this much freedom to build your vision. The 1,720 SF main floor has been thoughtfully taken back to the studs and joists, giving you a clean slate to design the layout you want. The current owners have already invested in the parts that matter most: a new moisture barrier, spray-foam insulation, and added attic insulation, plus a new roof in 2016 and updated electrical. Upstairs, the 1,400 SF open assembly hall retains its historic soul--soaring shiplap ceilings, warm wood floors, and the original raised stage--a showpiece space for events, a loft residence, or a stunning gathering room. Outside, the owners have fenced the rear yard, excavated and added gravel to the east side for off-street parking, and improved site drainage. With the heavy, unglamorous groundwork already done, you're free to focus on the fun part--bringing your vision to life. Properties with this much character and this much upside rarely come available. Come see what the next chapter could be.
