Property Description
With an incredible legacy that can be traced back to the founding of the United States, this 1700’s historic stone home is filled with period details & unique touches. Once part of a 200-acre tract deeded to Thomas and Richard Penn by appointment of King George I, it later became the property of Johannes Ortt & remained in the Ortt family for over 100 years. Today this lovingly renovated farmhouse is ready to welcome the next generation with additions & amenities suitable for today’s modern lifestyle. Every inch of this home has been newly refinished or replaced, while maintaining rich historic details such as the beautifully repointed stone both inside & out. Random width original wood floors & exposed wood beams are accompanied by deep-silled windows, built-ins, & a fireplace with gas insert. A new addition incorporates a modern kitchen with stainless appliances, granite countertops & a large island. The addition also includes a 1st floor primary suite with abundant windows & a luxurious en suite bath. 4 large bedrooms & 2 hall baths complete the 2nd floor. The detached garage also features an in-law suite or guest cottage, with a kitchen, bedroom & full bath. With just over an acre of land, the outdoor space is lush with mature trees & newly planted perennial gardens. A new paver patio with stone walls is an invitation for cookouts & firefly shows. The marriage of history and a beautiful farmhouse renovation makes this home one to treasure.
