Property Description

Own a piece of Jim Thorpe’s history just steps from downtown. Built c.1836 (local records) and reflecting the authentic plank-style construction often attributed to the c.1875 era, this home has been carefully restored with modern updates while preserving its character. With only three families of ownership, the property maintains its integrity, enhanced by updated wiring, plumbing, heating, and a 200-amp service. Highlights include a welcoming front porch rebuilt with period trusses and shutters, a formal dining room with wide-plank hardwood floors, and a bright living room with preserved details. The custom kitchen blends reclaimed White House Collection cabinetry, vintage fixtures, and French doors opening to the deck and gardens. Bedrooms feature enlarged closets and tranquil views, while the full bath showcases a clawfoot tub and reclaimed details. Outdoors, hand-laid stone terraces, private gardens, and a firepit frame views of Mt. Pisgah. A detached cabin, rebuilt on its original foundation, along with hand-etched doors, lighting, and more — collected from major motion pictures — add one-of-a-kind artistic provenance. Roof replacements (2007, 2012) and a rebuilt retaining wall (2023) provide long-term peace of mind. This property blends historic construction, creative detail, and lifestyle, all moments from Jim Thorpe’s dining, shops, opera house, train station, and outdoor recreation.
