Description

Located along the banks of the Little River in the heart of downtown Huntington IN is the charming historical "Pastor" building just waiting for someone to bring it back to life, originally built in 1893 as a bakery and grocery store, after two generations the Pastor family sold the building but it remained a grocery store until the 1930's, since then its been a restaurant, cigar shop and then the Counties Democratic Headquarters through the 1970's but regardless of the use it has been serving the community for over one hundred years. As you approach this building your drawn to the ornate brickwork and windows designed by the craftsmen of another time, the building is a blank slate ready for renovation offering a 1,452 square feet main level commercial space complete with large windows across the entire front, this area has already had the floor repaired including replacement of multiple floor joists and some of the subflooring, underneath is a full basement making a great place for all the mechanics and plumbing to be installed with room for extra storage. Heading upstairs from the separate outside entrance is a great area just waiting to be brought back to life as a beautiful living space, the awesome stained glass front windows and original fireplace are sure to set off the spacious front room, two large central rooms divided by the solid wood pocket doors leading to a nice kitchen space and full bathroom at the rear of the building. This property has its own parking area located behind the building. The building is currently owned by Huntington Alert Inc. They have made the repairs to the main level floor and installed a new Duro-Last roof that comes with a 20 year warranty, paperwork for warranty is attached or can be provided upon request. The property is subject to Indiana Landmarks historical guidelines and covenants also available for review upon request. This property is a great project for anyone who wants to own a piece of Huntington County history.
