Step into a storybook setting with this one-of-a-kind country home thoughtfully converted from the historic White Rock Creamery and nestled in scenic southern Lancaster County farmland. Lovingly restored by a previous owner and further refined with quality updates by the current owners. Inside, the home is filled with character and warmth. The living room features a cozy stone fireplace (currently equipped with a wood stove insert) and custom-built floor-to-ceiling bookshelves. The adjoining dining room area comfortably accommodates both small dinner parties and larger gatherings. These rooms share the original brick floor and windows, which provides excellent, natural light. The kitchen is warm and inviting, with refinished butcher block counters, newer stainless appliances, and crisp white subway tiles. It opens to a new deck with water views, overlooking a peaceful farm meadow and complete with an outdoor shower—perfect for warm summer days. There are three bedrooms (one of which is currently used as an additional closet). The first-floor utility room features a washer and dryer, as well as storage space. To complete the first floor living area, the den has exposed beams, built-in bookshelves, and French doors that open to the outside gardens and living spaces. Outside, the manageable gardens add bursts of seasonal color and charm, creating a special place to relax and unwind. Glimpses of the historic White Rock Covered Bridge can be seen, adding yet another layer of charm and history to this idyllic location. With low taxes and easy upkeep, this wonderful home is ideal for full-time living or as a weekend retreat!

The Creamery at White Rock in the days of the railroad was part of Abbotts Alderney Dairy of Philadelphia. The building still stands and is located in Southern Lancaster County along King Pin Road, just south of the covered bridge at Academy Road. The current owners have done a museum quality restoration and it is now a residence. Every room is filled with classic appointments. Why buy a painting when all the windows bring views right into this historic property. Two sides of the property are preserved farms, there is a meandering stream, covered bridge and picture postcard landscaping. You will rejoice in all nature has to offer by living here. The gentle sound of the water makes this more than a "must see" it's a "must own".
