A RARE PIECE OF HISTORY – THE ORIGINAL TOLL HOUSE BUILT IN 1768 Step back in time and discover the charm and character of this original toll house, built in 1768, beautifully situated on 1.46 picturesque acres with a stream, mature trees, established herb gardens, multiple outbuildings, and a charming wooden footbridge. Adding even more value and possibilities, a separate adjoining 1-acre parcel is available, listed separately, and currently taxed as a buildable lot. From the moment you enter this historic home, you will appreciate the warmth and character that only a property of this age can offer. The front door opens into a spacious living room and dining room combination featuring beautiful wood floors. Originally designed as two separate rooms, the space has been opened to create one large gathering area perfect for entertaining or everyday living. The staircase leads to the upper-level primary bedroom, another wonderfully spacious room that was originally two bedrooms and has since been combined into one. It features charming random-width plank wood floors and offers the potential to be converted back into two bedrooms if desired. The home also features a galley-style kitchen, one full bath, and an addition currently used as a dining room that can easily serve as a second bedroom, den, or flex space. Just beyond is a wonderful screened-in back porch, the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the peaceful setting and surrounding countryside. The property is filled with character both inside and out. Wander through the lush grounds among mature trees and established herb gardens, follow the little stream that meanders through the property, or cross the charming wooden bridge and enjoy your own peaceful retreat. One of the highlights of this property is the collection of useful and unique outbuildings. The Pennsylvania Dutch-built garage features a metal roof, concrete floor, and workbench, providing excellent space for a vehicle, hobbies, storage, or projects. Additional buildings include a chicken house, a garden shed rebuilt in 2010, and an especially versatile detached studio/home office, also rebuilt in 2010. Currently used as an art studio, this building features insulated floors, walls and ceiling, drywall, propane heat, a newer through-the-wall air-conditioning unit, electric, and wiring for phone service. It offers tremendous possibilities as a home office, art or craft studio, woodworking shop, workshop, hobby space, or private workspace. The home has also benefited from several important improvements, including a newer propane furnace with a buried propane tank, an approximately 2-year-old standing-seam metal roof, and replacement windows in the dining room/second-bedroom addition that are approximately two years old. There are two hand-dug wells on the property, one of which currently supplies the home. Historic charm, beautiful grounds, versatile outbuildings, and endless possibilities—all in one truly special property.
