This house for sale is a unique and charming reproduction of the historic school house on California Road in Morgantown, PA. Built in 1988, it boasts a beautiful exterior made of stones that were salvaged from the original school house. The interior of the house is equally impressive, featuring a range of natural materials such as brick, wood, and slate floors. The walls are plastered with all-natural paint, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The antique hardware throughout the house adds to the historical feel, while modern amenities like a Vermont Castings stove provide comfort and charm. The home was even featured in Builder Magazine for its focus on healthy living, with a design that promotes natural and sustainable materials. When the home is owned by the builder -- you know it is truly a work of craftsmanship, and customization created with a true love and appreciation. Overall, this one-of-a-kind home on .88 acres is sure to impress those who appreciate history, natural beauty, and a healthy lifestyle. Nestled in the Lancaster County farmland, yet located less than 10 minutes from Morgantown, and the PA Turnpike, Rt. 23 and Rt. 10 -- Shady Maple Farm market is just down the street!
