Description

The historic home in Schaefferstown, nestled on 0.69 acres of land, was once the original blacksmith shop in town. (Yes, the address says Newsmanstown, but the home is located in Schaefferstown. Welcome to small-town America!) Built in approximately 1800, this home has been lived in and lovingly renovated over the past 7 years. The main home and smaller house are both made of stone, quarried locally, with walls 18-inches thick. In the large house, the main living area has a fully renovated kitchen...The historic home in Schaefferstown, nestled on 0.69 acres of land, was once the original blacksmith shop in town. (Yes, the address says Newsmanstown, but the home is located in Schaefferstown. Welcome to small-town America!) Built in approximately 1800, this home has been lived in and lovingly renovated over the past 7 years. The main home and smaller house are both made of stone, quarried locally, with walls 18-inches thick. In the large house, the main living area has a fully renovated kitchen and dining room that has been opened up for easy gathering. Sprawling granite countertops with breakfast counter, acres of hard-wood cabinetry, and new stainless-steel appliances are just some of the upgrades to this bright and airy kitchen. The dining room has new flooring and light fixture and 2 large windows with deep sills and beautiful woodwork. Step from the dining room into the living room and surround yourself with warmth and calm. The hardwood floors, deep window sills, and propane fireplace create a space for making memories with loved ones or just cozying up with a cuppa coffee and a copy of Jane Eyre. Also on the main floor is a mudroom with loads of storage and easy access to the back patio and garden. Upstairs are 3 comfortable and spacious bedrooms with large closets, hardwood floors, wall-length bookshelves, and light-filled windows. Like downstairs, the windows have deep sills that make for inviting window seats, bookshelves, or a home for all your houseplants. (Or maybe for your cat to curl up in the sun and nap.) The newly renovated bathroom has a walk-in shower, built-in shelving, and lovely shiplap detail. If you wander up to the 3rd floor, there is a blank canvas for anyone with imagination. The hand-hewn rafters, broad floorboards, and windows overlooking the town might inspire the Jo March in you to create the perfect writer’s studio. Or maybe a playroom or den. The property also has a 2nd building that was the actual blacksmith’s shop. The hand-hewn rafters, deep window sills, and build-in wall-drawers all speak to the craftsmanship of the late Colonial Era. Then, in 2020, this building was completely renovated to make it into an apartment. With an open living space, full kitchen, full bathroom, and laundry room with walk-in pantry, this quaint stone shop has been transformed into a peaceful country cottage. Perfect for an in-law quarters, guest space, or rental. Finally, there is a detached 2-car garage for cars, mowers, tractors, gardening gear, and any other outdoor accoutrements. In addition to the multitude of renovations, the roof was replaced, down to the studs, in 2023. The furnace religiously serviced each year, and a full tank of oil is ready to keep you toasty and warm. With mint and daffodils that bloom in the flowerbeds by the kitchen, and snapdragons that arrive each summer in the front flowerboxes, this home is stunning and unique and situated only 15 minutes north of Lititz. Lay in bed on a Sunday morning and listen to the church bells welcome the day, or gather by the Franklin House for Christmas in the Square, or mosey down to Schaeffer Farm for the annual Gilmore Girls festival or World War II reenactment. This town is idyllic and this home is simply waiting for you to fall in love with it.
