Recently placed on the National Registry of Historic Places, the Vernooy-Bevier home and farmstead is a true rareity. Sitting in the middle of almost 8 bucolic acres is one of the oldest homes in the county, if not the state. Countless hours of historical research has dated the house between 1690-1710. It is only one of two homes in Wawarsing to survive the Revolutionary war. This uniquely intact home and landscape represents hundreds of years of farming and homesteading. The Old Stone home has been well cared for over it's long history and is a cozy and inviting space. Two enormous fireplaces grace the living and kitchen areas and period details are evident throughout. Despite it's age, the home has walk in closets, 2 spacious bedrooms and plenty of additional storage. Once outside you will find yourself immersed in the sheer beauty of the property. Sprawling over well maintained grounds are 6 additional structures, mature trees, small apple orchard, shaded stone patio with the ultimate outdoor fireplace! The massive stone fireplace was part of a summer kitchen that was said to have been burned during an indian raid. Additional buildings consist of the cavernous main barn (1800's construction), the chicken barn, the Granary which is currently being used as an art studio, the Machine barn currently in use by the farmer, the pig barn which has recently raised some pigs and the incredibly rare and intact icehouse which just recently received a new roof. Owning this home has truly been a joy for the owners but it is time for someone else to become part of the story.
