• Remarks Public: Come and see Country living at its finest! This charming and quaint farmhouse, circa 1751 is 272 years old. The home was built with artisanal craftsmanship no longer available by today's standards. You can still see and feel the craftsmanship throughout the entire home. From the stone fireplaces to visible carpentry marks in the hand-hewn wooden beams. The home has changed hands and purposes over the years and according to public records was an Inn at one time. This home existed at the time of the Revolutionary War and the story goes that at some point in the 1700s, then General George Washington who commanded the Continental Army may have stayed here. This is a storied farmhouse with all the character and charm of the days gone but also offers some of the modern amenities of a newer home. 3 bedrooms and one full bath on 2.4 beautiful acres. Private driveway, fenced-in yard, fireplaces in most rooms, original hardwood floors throughout, detached 2 car garage, as well as beautiful architectural ruins of the original farmhouse barn. An in-ground concrete pool with a newer filtration system also adorns the property and offers a place to cool off in the summer to entertain family and friends. Nature lovers and anyone seeking a private, peaceful place to get away from it all when they come home will fall in love with this one-of-a-kind beauty. Some improvements and upgrades include; updated windows throughout, a wood stove insert in the living room, and a free-standing wood stove in the family room. Natural screen planting of numerous trees and shrubs. All chimneys have been recently repointed and capped. Electrical brought up to code. Newer appliances throughout the house. This home is situated perfectly in the countryside with access to major roadways, close proximity to local schools, and not far from historic Kennet Square, Longwood Gardens, Maryland, Philadelphia, etc
