Property Description

This beautifully restored home, dating back to circa 1725, features 11 rooms, 5 acres of land, beautiful outdoor gardens, and modern conveniences. Listed on the Historic Preservation Trust of Lancaster County, the home is carefully preserved and well maintained. The home was originally built by a French Huguenot settler on land granted by William Penn. The property was nearly abandoned when it was purchased and restored with love by the current owner and her husband in 1985. History was maintained while adding a modern kitchen, bathrooms, central heating and air conditioning. The 3600+ sq. ft. of living space accommodates four bedrooms, two full baths and one half bath. The home offers a full length "front" porch that overlooks a large portion of the five acre lot. The property is bordered on one side by a stream. The house sits well above the stream's flood plain. The home features pocket doors between the living and community rooms and candles in each of the thirty-three windows. To preserve the historic value, all windows have "old" wavy glass. Additional features consist of rough hewn exposed beams in the modern kitchen and community room, a candle cupboard, and a Bible cupboard. A section of the basement contains a unique, arched stone ceiling.
There are three fireplaces: one is wood burning and is located in the community room, and a second in the living room is lit by gas logs. The third fireplace, in the summer kitchen, is wood burning. It has never been used by the current owner. The "summer kitchen" is believed to be historically accurate. It was possibly the original kitchen, or one added sometime close to the original construction. That fireplace has one large hanging kettle and double doors to close it off. The owner utilized this room for her antique shop before retirement.
There is a main staircase to the second floor inside the "front" hallway off the porch, and a second "back" staircase located near the modern kitchen. there are two separate attics over the house with steps ascending to each. The house has seven exterior doors.
The entire five acres of land is mown and manicured. The property has several decorative flower beds. Upon entering this very private property via a short, paved lane, you encounter a bank barn constructed in 1990 on the original barn's stone foundation. The two story barn has 1,683 sq. ft. of usable space.
The home includes a generator in the event of a power failure. You can enjoy all the modern comforts of the 21st century while surrounded by a historic home dating back to the earliest era of colonization. If you treasure history, this is the home for you.
