A piece of Lancaster County history is for sale! This three story home built in 1859 has a unique layout and location. It sits on the Pequea Creek and is directly across from Sickman's Mill! Enjoy your summer experiencing creek views and a luscious .95 acre lot. There are several outbuildings included with this property as well as a detached 3 car garage. A wood shed and a large storage building will add to your experience viewing this property. This home was built by the owner of Sickman's Mill in the 1800's so he could keep an eye on his workers in the mill across the creek. This home is old and all the character and quirkiness that comes along with that is evident as you enter the home into the sunroom. It's a great room to relax and have coffee overlooking the creek. It's heated by a propane stove. Moving into the kitchen, you'll notice another stove with a beautiful mantle. This large eat-in kitchen has another view of the creek. The utility room is off of the kitchen before you go upstairs to the main living area of the home on the second floor. Enter onto the landing at the top of the stairs and you'll see a large bedroom and a full, refinished bathroom with washer and dryer. The bedroom has beautiful creek views. The refinished living room is on this floor and is spectacular. Open beam ceilings and a wonderful stone hearth are the focal points of this room. As you continue upstairs to the third floor, you'll see the large second bedroom that has been refinished with more open beam ceilings and original soft wood floors. It's nice and bright as well. To get to the family/pool table room, you'll go out the door in the living room, up the exterior stairs and enter this huge room. It's perfect for a pool table or you can use it as an entertaining area. It's large enough for an in home theater or whatever you feel you'd like to do with it. A wood stove heats this room wonderfully. This truly unique home in the southern end of Lancaster County is only 20 minutes to Lancaster City if you want to go to market or a 8 minute drive to Conestoga for the Tomato Festival and Conestoga Wagon Restaurant!
