Full of history this home was one of the Lord Fairfax Grants of 240 acres to William Slane who immigrated from Ireland. It remained a family farm for around 200 years. The original log structure was built from American Chestnut logs in 1780. In 1920 an addition was added. The wood sided two story and an upper level was added to the original structure. The house had a major renovations around 2000. This home is full of character and charm. It has an eat in country kitchen with stainless steel appliances. Cozy stone fireplace and original log walls adorn the house. Covered full length front porch and covered screened in porch. Which over looks the babbling brook. The stream can be heard from the porch or inside the house when the windows are open. This creek is a native brook trout stream complete with habitat and engineered rock sides to prevent erosion and to protect the integrity of stream and creek sides. Step into yesteryear with adorable 1700's home with all the modern conveniences where peace and privacy abound. Fertile garden land, fenced side yard, spring with watercress. Come and sit and listen to the stream. Better yet have a picnic and wade in the cool spring fed stream. Bring a little love to this timeless beauty and make it your own. It's not often such a unique home and property become available to be purchased. Turn this one into your own private retreat/park. Gated so no drive-byes.
