From the Zillow listing:
Circa 1780 Historic Stone Farmhouse which was originally part of most of the land in the area of the Hopewell Furnace and French Creek located in Warwick Township. Situated on a 2.24 +/- acre lot with gorgeous views! Farmhouse contains the original open hearth fireplace for cooking and was lived in until last year. Bring your vision, the potential for this home is amazing, whether it’s a complete restoration or tear down. Pex plumbing and electric, including meter box were updated in 2010. The propane hot water heater and electric hot water tank were also updated in 2010, during the cold spell the heater didn’t work and the water heater pipe froze, causing some water damage, it has been fixed and is running again. ****************DO NOT ENTER IN THE BACK EMPTY ADDITION…IT IS NOT SAFE*******************
