Log House & Log Summer Kitchen

Log House and Log Summer Kitchen. Log Summer Kitchen, a 1½ story, 16’ x 18’, with loft. Rare Corner post construction, stone fireplace: There was likely a box-winder stair to the side of the fireplace which accessed the loft. The 2nd floor attic flooring is in good condition. The logs on this building may have been salvaged from a pre-existing building. This was the summer kitchen for a 1750 - 2 ½ story log house (below) which has original hand-planed partition boards and original flooring and has never seen plumbing! In the heart of Pa Dutch Country. |

This very early German Center Chimney Log House (c. 1750) is 26’ x 28’, 2 ½ stories (a loft). It has tall ceilings, the original two-sided hand-planed, beaded partition boards with original paint with their beaded plank doors, the original flooring and it has never seen plumbing and only sparse electric. It’s like walking into the past. In the Heart of Pa Dutch Country |

FYI: In the photos, it is an illusion that there appear to be “holes” among the logs. The holes are not in the logs themselves; they are in the chinking and daubing, which all gets replaced in the reconstruction process. |
