2355 LITTLE ROAD

PERKIOMENVILLE, PA 18074

Welcome to 2355 Little Road, a picturesque farmstead built circa 1870, nestled atop one of the highest elevations in New Hanover Township in the heart of what was once southeastern Pennsylvania's dairy country. Framed by 3.72 acres of rolling meadows and heirloom gardens, this historic stone farmhouse is steeped in character, craftsmanship, and quiet legacy. The home was constructed with 18-inch thick fieldstone walls, and behind it stands a classic Pennsylvania bank barn with stone foundation walls, barn bridge, overshoot, granaries, and a hayloft that still houses a towering 1800s thresher machine. This was once part of the tiny hamlet called Anise, where neighbors gathered at the schoolhouse two doors down or shopped at the general store across the way. The current owners are only the fourth family to live here, and just the second since the early 1900s. The Lee family owned the farm for most of the 20th century. When their last heir passed, distant relatives inherited the farm in 1977, by then overgrown and left in a time capsule state. Brambles overtook the fields, morning glories wrapped the sheds, and inside were relics of the past: 1950s paneling, aged wallpaper, and a cutout attic floorboard where someone once hoped to find a stash of hidden savings. All that remained was a 1930s German cookbook with paper marks tucked between the pages—a quiet mystery in an old house filled with stories. The current owner's parents, seeking a stone farmhouse to call their own, saw past the years and began a devoted restoration. Stone walls were repointed, the porch rebuilt with rocks gathered from the woods, and the original shed transformed into a handcrafted dining room with stone floors, stone walls, and a Cawley Le May wood-burning cookstove. The kitchen was carefully built by father and grandfather, with timbered ceilings, wood cabinetry, and etched dates to mark each milestone. Throughout, original features were preserved: wide-plank random width floors, hand-forged hardware, and the original milkhouse and outhouse still standing outdoors. Over the years, they added barn siding, dry-stacked stone garden walls, a circular drive, and landscaping throughout. In 2023, the home passed to the daughter, who carried forward the legacy with significant upgrades: a brand new standing seam metal roof, new farm fencing and woodshed, Vermont Castings woodstove, all new appliances, new hot water heater, and new water softener. The attic was fully insulated and finished into a heated and cooled fourth bedroom, and the home now features a modern forced air HVAC system powered by an electric heat pump. Just minutes from scenic Green Lane Park, this 4-bedroom, 1.5-bath home offers 2,130 sq ft of living space with every inch grounded in story and care. Offered for sale only three times since the 1800s, this is not just a home—it’s a chapter in a larger story, waiting for its next custodian.
