History and architectural features

The house in this historic property was built in 1867, and is a two-story, T-shaped, brick dwelling that was designed in the Greek Revival style. Also located on the property are a contributing two-story, four-bay brick building that is believed by historians to have housed a cooper's shop and residence; a brick summer kitchen, a brick smoke house, a frame pumphouse, a large brick end bank barn with a slate roof, a frame wagon shed, a brick carriage house, a stone mill (1803) and the site of the Spring Grove Distillery. The distiller ceased to operate in 1920.[2]
