With almost 900 feet of shoreline on the east bank of Deep Creek, this historic house on 7+ acres, built c 1792, is known as the Custis Deep Creek Plantation (A83A in Whitelaws). The present condition of the house is a serious project for one to undertake, with the interior of the 1.5 story house, 1215 sq ft unfinished (per county tax records), gutted down to the studs. With wood siding on the exterior, the dormered roof and both front and rear porch roofs & flooring need probable replacement and/or renovation however the foundation/basement appear structurally sound. Remnants of the original house include two brick fireplaces, wood door jambs, mantels and wide plank flooring. A detached concrete block shed, 18' X 10', with single carport serves as the pump house to the well.
