Description

Welcome to 40 Indian Run Road, a truly one-of-a-kind property nestled in the heart of scenic Glenmoore. This beautifully restored home once served as a 19th-Century one-room schoolhouse named The Glen Dale Public School. Following the 1836 Free School Act, public schoolhouses like Glen Dale School served Wallace Township for over a century. From the moment you arrive down the long, welcoming private drive, you’ll be enamored by the home’s history and charm. The original white schoolhouse façade, complete with a picturesque arched window above the covered front porch, immediately draws you in. Just above the window, the original 1881 Glen Dale Public School plaque still hangs, a timeless tribute to the home's storied past. The quaint landscaping, accented by the original school bell, adds to the one-of-a-kind character of this historic gem. Enter into the home to find a well-appointed kitchen all set beneath exposed wood beams, a full bathroom off to the side, and the main living space. The main living space features a dramatic two-story original stone fireplace (now serving as a wood stove insert) flanked by the original chalkboards used in the schoolhouse! Take in the character of this space with the exposed hand-hewn beams, leaded glass window, and vaulted ceilings. A spacious main suite was added on to the main living area, complete with vaulted ceilings, a gas fireplace, a walk-in closet, and a luxurious en-suite bathroom with a jetted tub, stall shower, and two separate vanities. Two additional bedrooms are located upstairs along with a shared bathroom that includes a built-in sauna. A cozy den and laundry are located on the lower level, providing additional functional space. A spacious back deck overlooks the 2.65 acres of wooded land that backs up to Indian Run and the Wallace Twp.Trail. A stone path leads through the scenic backyard, offering a peaceful place to unwind. The detached two-car garage includes a full attic for extra storage or potential additional living space. Whether you’re drawn to its rare historical charm or its blend of past and present, this home offers a living experience that is as distinctive as it is comfortable. With a convenient walk to Springton Manor Country Park and endless trails and farms, you’ll enjoy peaceful countryside living with nature right at your doorstep.
