This unique, historic, and lovingly maintained colonial home was built in 1728.

Make your Thanksgiving dinner in the beehive oven or smoke some bacon in the smoke chamber. The original Tomahawk door, designed to protect against an attack, is still a primary entry door, and in great shape. The grand living room has beautiful built-in cabinets, doors, and shelves made of rare American Chestnut. The large yard boasts privacy, as well as many beautiful stone walls. If you’re looking for a home with a lot of charm, character, and history, this is the home for you.
