Calling all history buffs! This property was originally owned by Hugh Ferguson as a land grant from William Penn in 1785. In 1857, the Wilson's appear to have built the present footprint of the home and in 1873 the Rambo's purchased and owned until 1994 when the current owners purchased it. Only 5 families have ever owned this property! You'll love the primitive character of this homestead with built-in cabinets and unique turkey feather varnished doors with original hardware. Features include an updated kitchen, spacious living room with original wood floors, ceiling beams and wood stove. Check out the photograph from 1870 +/- in the formal dining room of the original home with family members. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms (2 with original wood floors), an updated bathroom and access to the attic. The attic also hosts the most unique feature. .. a smoke house!! Enjoy falling asleep listening to the sound of rain drops on the tin roof. The original window shutters adorn the front of the house! This stone home sits amidst 9.38 acres of which approximately 4.3 are wooded, 4 acres pasture/fields and an acre of yard. The current homeowners have created a gorgeous landscape of native plants that the hummingbirds and bees just love. The grape arbor is currently filled with tasty grapes that can be made into juice & jam. The owners have gutted and lovingly restored since 1994 to include new utilities, sand-mound, well, rebuilt front mahogany porch(2013)/porch roof, PA slate patio with nice shade for summer days! It took them 5 years to complete the original rehab and was quite the labor of love. Pics of the transformation are available at the home. Most recently the oil boiler, water heater and outside spigot were replaced and roof coated in 2021. There are 2 outbuildings and a raised bed garden. Don't wait to be the proud owner of an amazing piece of PA history!
