Beautiful shot Scott. It is wonderful to see the preservation of structures like these. Amazing how well they were built. Pennsylvania has some beautiful landscape and structures. Very nice.

@Barbara: Thanks. This structure underwent restoration a number of years ago, and is, to this day, a private residence. (It's rented.) You can tell by the modern conveniences outside the building -- mailbox, well or sump cap, etc.
This is amazing to hear this is a rented dwelling. Most likely the tenant is one that is well suited for this style of home. Thank you for the info.
