Located in the farmland of Lancaster County, this property boasts a history that dates back to the 18th Century including the Revolutionary War. The historical significance of this estate is a level-1 high importance. It is listed as a Lancaster County Historic Preservation Trust Site as well as a farm that protects water quality and wildlife with the USDA. The land directly north of the tract was known as Indiantown where much activity and excitement took place. Many important conferences were held here between government officials and Indian chiefs of various tribes. The exposed chestnut beams that run the length of the house can still be seen. The custom library was added to create a private study that would make any writer or reader envious of it's character and charm. A bright first floor full bath is accessible from this out cove. In the first decade of the 19th century, the house was remodeled by Benjamin Musser. The remaining windows were made larger, the attic floorline raised, as well as much of the original paint on the woodwork being retained that can be seen still today.
