Property Description
Live in a beautiful stone farmhouse which is a part of history. Situated on 4 acres which included a pump house and smoke house and a place for horses- now autos. It has all the charm with thick stone walls, deep windows sills, many original windows, original woodwork and 3 outbuildings. High ceilings on both floors add to the charm of the home. Much of the home has the original ornamental hinges and door latches! There are 2 staircases. The high ceilings on both floors and deep windowsills are reminiscent of its grand history! There are fireplaces that are currently closed which some had a Franklin Stove for heating and cooking.
This authentic stone farmhouse has 4 Bedrooms, 1.5 baths, main level laundry. Once called the MEETCH House - it was once the center of a plantation that included two mills, a "stone mill" and a "clover mill" The home was built near the end of the 18th Century by John Meetch (original out kitchen). Dauphin County histories record a skirmish between early settlers and Native Americans within gunshot of this house. It also was the site of an inn and toll house, where travelers paid tolls and rested during trips across Peters Mountain.
