Property Description
Step back in time with this unique 2-bed, 1-bath home, the oldest residential building in Lower Macungie Township, built in 1752. Nestled on 19 acres in the East Penn School District, this historic gem is accessed via a private road leading to a charming log and stone house that exudes 18th-century nostalgia. The original dining room and kitchen, along with hardwood floors, wooden beam ceilings, and stone walls, transport you to another era.
The first floor also features a living room updated in 1891 and a sunroom that offers panoramic views of the expansive backyard. Upstairs, you'll find two cozy bedrooms and a full bath. The lower level houses a basement, perfect for additional storage.
Outside, a 28x36 stone barn, also updated in 1891, stands as a reminder of the home's storied past. Enjoy the tranquility of the shaded outdoors with a gazebo, fish pond, and the soothing sounds of nature. This is more than just a home—it's a rare opportunity to own a piece of history, meticulously preserved to reflect its time period.
