Property Description
Step back in time and appreciate the wealth of history in this lovingly maintained farmstead on 5.56 bucolic acres. Meyerton Farm originated circa 1760 and expanded over centuries, all the while preserving the authenticity and craftsmanship of a bygone era. A Swiss bank house was the first structure built here, one of only three remaining in the state of Pennsylvania. The early 1800's brought the beginnings of the main house where chip-carving surrounds, deep silled windows, random width oak floor, and wood beams remain intact in gracious rooms with uncommonly high ceilings, on both first and second floors. Two walk-in fireplaces and a full bath are found on the main level and formal living and parlor rooms retain original bible boxes. Random width pine floors, chair rails, and picture rails accent a den and four bedrooms on the upper level. "Lehigh County Comma" barn designs adorn a three-level stone bank barn with electric and large windows. The grounds are lovely, a memorable venue for parties and events or for a delightful stroll with glorious peonies and two spring fed ponds found along the way. Pride of craftsmanship and ownership permeates, creating an authentic sense of appreciation for and love of this important historic property. Located within the highly regarded East Penn school district is ideal for reaching the Lehigh Valley Hospital campus, popular shopping and dining destinations, and essential roadways.
