About This Home
Step into timeless elegance at this masterfully restored 1830 Pennsylvania Dutch Farmhouse
nestled on 13 pristine acres. This 6-bedroom, 3.5-bath historic estate has very recently been fully
renovated down to the studs using reclaimed materials from the original property and local stone
— blending heritage with luxury country living.
The entry of the home not only welcomes guests — it tells a story of tradition, refinement, and
enduring charm. Thru the solid wood doors, tile flooring underfoot, detailed millwork, and high
ceilings offer a blend of timeless craftsmanship and understated elegance. To your left, a hall that
leads to a half bath , lunch nook and entryway to the backyard oasis. Lined with built-in custom
cabinetry, a commercial size refrigerator and full laundry creates the amazing butlers pantry.
The chef's kitchen is the centerpiece, showcasing custom cherry cabinetry, soapstone
countertops, a Dacor 6-burner gas range, and a one-of-a-kind wood-fired oven that is often used
for the most fabulous home cooked meals.
Anchored by warm hardwood floors and framed with deep-sill windows, the expansive dining
room is designed to be both inviting and functional. Perfectly positioned between the kitchen and
living areas, it features an open-concept layout that encourages effortless flow — ideal for
everyday family meals or entertaining guests. Natural light fills the space, while the windows
offer scenic views of the pool and horse pastures, creating a picturesque backdrop to every
meal.
Bathed in natural light and warmed by rich hardwood floors, the formal living room on the main
floor is a cozy yet elegant retreat. Oversized windows frame postcard-perfect views of the
surrounding hay fields. At the center of the room, a gas fireplace with brick surround adds
warmth and charm, complemented by handcrafted wood beam supports that honor the home’s
historic architecture.
When your guests get a little too cozy, a thoughtfully designed main-floor guest or in-law suite
offers a private bedroom and full bathroom, ideal for multi-generational living.
At the heart of the home lies the breathtaking Great Room , a true showcase of traditional
Germanic peg-built craftsmanship. Soaring vaulted ceilings and exposed wood beams create
an open, cathedral-like atmosphere, while the rich knotty pine finishes bring warmth and rustic
elegance. A striking floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace with a wood burning stove not only
anchors the space with historic character, but also provides radiant heat that rises to warm the
second floor. Bathed in natural light from all sides, this room is both a gathering space and a
sanctuary — ideal for cozy evenings by the fire or entertaining under the glow of its timberframed beauty. The charming home office featuring custom cabinetry and desk crafted from
trees on the property, set against authentic stone walls and wood beams.
The second floor features a spacious primary suite with a walk-in closet and a luxurious en-suite
bath, complete with a full-body Jacuzzi shower. Two additional bedrooms each offer generous
closets and picturesque views of the surrounding pastures from every deep-set window. A full
bath with double vanity and tub/shower combo, along with a discreetly tucked-away laundry
area, completes this level.
Surprisingly, the third floor opens up to two oversized bonus rooms—ideal for bedrooms, hobby
spaces, or guest quarters—each room showcases original wood overhead beams and gleaming
hardwood floors.
Step out onto the expansive back deck and take in panoramic views of the heated pool, charming
pool house, and sweeping horse pastures beyond. A lighted stone staircase gracefully descends
from the deck to the pool area, creating an inviting and elegant transition for both daytime
enjoyment and evening entertaining.
