Property Description
The sellers noted that this property was extensively researched by Elizabethtown college & is believed to have been built by Reuben Armstrong in 1805. Remodel of the (underside) of the staircase reveals that this is a log home.
Inside, you'll find rich natural wood tones, exposed beams, and handcrafted details that reflect the enduring quality of early American architecture. The kitchen is complete with original fireplace (assumed to have been used for cooking) & brick floors. Spacious living areas, cozy nooks, and architectural details create a welcoming environment that blends history with everyday comfort.
Outside, the property truly shines. The beautifully landscaped gardens surround the home with color and texture, offering the perfect backdrop for morning coffee or summer evenings by the outdoor fire pit. The raised bed gardens are included! The sellers have used them to grow lots of beautiful flowers! The vinyl privacy-fenced backyard provides a peaceful retreat ideal for gatherings or quiet relaxation. A detached two-car, two-story garage with electric adds excellent workshop or storage space — a rare find in a historic borough home.
Located in the heart of Marietta's historic district, you'll enjoy easy access to the Northwest Lancaster County River Trail, Susquehanna River, charming local cafés and restaurants, and community events throughout the year. Convenient to Routes 441 and 30, this home offers the perfect blend of heritage, walkability, and modern convenience.
Whether you're drawn to historic preservation, small-town living, or simply the charm of a home with a story to tell, this one-of-a-kind property captures the essence of Marietta living at its finest.
