Property Description
STEP BACK IN TIME with this fascinating, historic home, originally a Greek Revival, side-gabled structure built in 1856. It's believed to be the work of John B. Preswick and his teenage son, Joseph, who hailed from Ithaca, New York. The house has evolved beautifully over the decades, with its most notable transformation occurring in the mid-1870s under the ownership of farmer Peter Weaver. Weaver thoughtfully added the striking Gothic details to the front and raised the roof to create a full second story, blending architectural styles into the unique home you see today. Perfectly situated on 10 incredible acres, this home boasts 4 bedrooms, 1.1 bath and features a 30 x 40 Pole barn with electricity and a 2 car detached shed.
