Updated Apt in Historic Building—Free Parking!
Modern Midtown Retreat: Discover our cozy 1-bed apartment, the perfect home base for exploring Hershey and Harrisburg. Located in Midtown, Harrisburg’s coolest neighborhood, you’re within walking distance of Downtown, the State Capitol, breweries, and more. Situated in the historic “Carpets and Draperies” building, originally Gerber’s Department Store (1922), this fully restored unit offers modern comforts, including free off-street parking, a fully stocked kitchen, and in-unit laundry. The unit is a 600 square foot 1 bed apartment, with ramp/ADA access and a dedicated entrance. The unit is located in the same historic, restored “Carpets and Draperies” building as Harrisburg’s best bakery/coffee spot, Raising the Bar bakery. The kitchen is fully stocked for cooking in unit. Check out the guide for shopping and dining suggestions. There are two queen beds in the bedroom, and a twin sized futon/sofa bed in the living room. Perfect for two couples (who don’t mind sharing a bedroom), or someone traveling with children. The bathroom has a shower, but no tub. Limited toiletries provided. The bathroom has a washer and dryer, which is available for use as well. The living room features a small dining table, large kitchen island, and cozy sitting area. Both the living room and bedroom have streaming-available flat screens (with your Netflix, Hulu account, etc.) Wi-Fi available too, of course. Full kitchen, bedroom, living room, bathroom, walk in closet. Dedicated entrance, with a ramp. ADA accessible. I live on-site, and am generally available to help with questions, concerns, and local recommendations. I love Midtown Harrisburg, and bought this building to bring the historic structure back to life after decades vacant. This project is one part of Midtown’s resurgence. The unit is in the “Carpets and Draperies” building, which was built in 1922 as a department store. It sat vacant for decades, but was restored over the last couple years. The marquee “Carpets and Draperies” sign is original from 1922. The building is in the heart of Midtown, Harrisburg, along Third Street, which is the neighborhood’s commercial corridor with bars, restaurants, cafes, museums, etc. Across the street is a new charter academy, also housed in a historic old structure that’s been restored to its former glory. Midtown is very walkable. Within steps of the unit is the Susquehanna Art Museum, Millworks Gallery and Restaurant, ZeroDay Brewing and much more. If here on business, Downtown and the State Capitol are only a few blocks away. The new federal building is about 2 blocks behind the unit. Midtown is also a great jumping off point for other Central Pennsylvania attractions like those in Hershey and Lancaster. There is parking for free on site in the parking lot adjacent to the building. Midtown Harrisburg is very walkable. Unless you’re heading to Amish Country, Hershey Park, or somewhere out of town, you don’t need a car in Harrisburg City. But if you need a car, it’ll be at your door. You’ll get a key code for the front door keypad at check-in. Note there are 3 entrances to this building: a door to apartment A, and a door to apartments B-E, both on the side of the building. The front entrance accesses “Raising the Bar” bakery only. This AirBnB unit is Apartment A. You will not be able to enter Apartments B-E. You will of course get to visit the bakery when it’s open.
