The original portion of the home was built in 1894 using wood from this parcel of land. You will feel the tremendous personality of this cottage when you walk into it. All of the original hardwood floors have been restored. Spring, summer and fall full of fun, games, natural beauty and friends, plus plenty of leisure and room to spread out. All the memories made here make it a difficult place to leave. The owners have decided that they are too old to need it, and want another family (or two) to enjoy it.
