Built in 1819, this captivating property boasts historic charm and a remarkable past. Showcasing one of the first freed African American to purchase a lot, in1812, and build a house. This property is possibly the very first EVER on record in the United States to have collateralized his home construction, with two deeds of trust, to complete his build. Ned's story is one of resilience and achievement. This story is significant as it offers a rare glimpse into the lives of free Black individuals during a period marked by social and economic inequalities. After gaining his freedom, he leveraged his skills in the distillery to become a successful craftsman. His entrepreneurial spirit is evident in his ownership of the house you see today after the 1810 census listed him as a free man. This house stands as a testament to Ned's hard work and determination. The main house itself offers a blend of modern comfort and historic ambiance, featuring 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, 3 fireplaces and a partial basement. The property is further enhanced by a versatile block house built in the 1950s, providing additional space with 3-4 bedrooms and 1 bath. Don't miss this opportunity to own a unique piece of Buckland history with a story that will inspire.
