Property Description
This extremely rare 1741 log cabin has been continuously occupied for almost 300 years. In 2018, the Lancaster County Historic Preservation Trust recognized its importance by bestowing their yearly Award for Preservation. Along with a proud history, the house is comfortable and inviting. You enter through a bright sunroom, transitioning from the working landscape outside to the 18th-century interior within. Exposed original hand-hewn log walls, open beam ceilings, and a large stone fireplace anchor a generous living and dining space. The country kitchen is warm and practical. A home office and full bathroom complete the main level. Upstairs is the primary bedroom with exposed log walls, a study, two additional bedrooms, and a second full bathroom. The 1840 Bank Barn, registered with the Historic Barn and Farm Foundation, is in excellent condition hand-hewn chestnut beams, trusses, wooden pegs, wide plank floors, classic wood siding. It has housed sheep, horses, hay, and numerous celebrations. It's ready to continue its contributions. The house and barn are on ten acres in the quiet northern Lancaster County countryside: open meadows in organic hay production, mature plantings, fruit trees, kitchen gardens and woodland cultivated over decades, and protected wetlands whose waters make their way into the Chesapeake Bay. Many of the original stone walls are visible. For the past 40 years, one family has been the guardian of this beautifully maintained property. Actively protecting this special place by participating in conservation programs such as CREP, Clean and Green, Ten Million Trees, and granting a conservation/preservation easement. This easement is a promise. The log cabin remains as is. The fields you see today will be the fields your grandchildren see. No subdivision. No overdevelopment. In a landscape under constant pressure, this property offers something rare: permanence and quiet beauty. That family is now looking for the next steward.
