Price improvement! Now $990,000 Every home tells a story, but this one is special. When people think of an historic farmhouse in the Poconos, this is what most people picture. There's a charm to the land. From its earliest days, it has been giving up Native American pottery shards and arrowheads. The freshwater spring comes right out of the hillside, and the raceways produce bundles of edible herbs. Each outbuilding was added by different owners, for the changing uses of the farm. in summer, fireflies are abundant, giving the property its latest name. Firefly kennels. Moving inside, this century home has 20 rooms. There are 5 bedrooms and several large, unused rooms on the 3rd floor just waiting to be finished with wallpaper and a vintage dresser. There are 3 1/2 baths, a large kitchen with an island, a separate breakfast bar, a breakfast room, and a dining room, hinting at just how many people have gathered here over the years to share a meal, a memory, a Thanksgiving, where everyone has a seat at the table. Many cool features, such as the open, vaulted 3-story ceiling, a hall, and a doorway that no longer leads anywhere, add to the original charm and appeal. The home has been recently redone, and the hardwood floors have been saved in as many places as possible. The pictures here tell a story that words simply can't. You need to see this property to feel its history, its warmth.
