About this property
Mine Ridge House; Buggy watching and farm views. 15 min drive to Sight and Sound
Step back in time!
Take a break from the fast pace of life in the house Abner Smoker built in 1949. The home has recently been restored to highlight its mid-century charm. The brick exterior and solid wood floors throughout speak of an age of stabilty and craftsmanship.
You will be transported to simpler times as you listen to the horse drawn buggies clip-clopping by. Wave to the children going by to their one-room school house just down the road.
You"ll make memories for a lifetime at this unique and family-friendly place.
Situated on the corner of a main Amish throughway and a farm road you will not be disappointed if you like to watch horse & buggies and Amish farm life.
The space;
Park your bags inside the enclosed porch until you have the chance to explore and choose your bedroom in this charmingly restored mid-century cape cod country home.
Open the wood and plate-glass door into the large kitchen and connected dining room. You will appreciate the counter space and island for generous food prep space. The original pine floors radiate a cheerful ambiance.
Gather around the regal dining room table to reconnect with each other during meals.
Unwind in the expansive open living room with large windows flooding the whole area with natural sunshine, highlighting the fascinating natural patterns in original walnut hardwood flooring.
The walnut flooring extends into the first floor bedroom w/ a queen bed and attached half bath.
Take the wide, open stairway into the second floor where you will find two spacious bedrooms and a full bath with a tub and shower.
White cotton bedding and towels.
Filtered well water. No chlorine or floride treatments.
Bedroom 1 features a King bed, a closet as well as a bistro table with two chairs.
A desk and dresser/vanity provide plenty of surface area for your personal effects or laptop.
Bedroom 2 has a queen bed and a queen sleeper sofa-bed, a closet, a few chairs and a dresser.
Both upstairs bedrooms sport their own TV.
You will be the sole occupants of the house as well as the shaded lawn. A fire pit is avail. to enjoy making s'mores etc..
Ev car charging station 10 min.( 6 miles) from house.
If you need transportation to and from the station contact the host Lavina.
If you book a stay in Sept. when the grapes are ripe you may be able to enjoy some of what we think are the best Concord grapes we ever tasted. The pics of them in the listing were from last years crop. Just spectacular for a possibly 50 yr. old grape vine!
