The OX MILL
Horsham Township
5 Bedrooms, 3.5 Baths, 2 Car Garage
$298,900

This house is for those who appreciate an historic home dating from 1827 that has all its original charm and integrity, even though it has undergone extensive renovations by the current owner of the last 40 years. There are a total of six fireplaces on three levels, one is a walk-in. There is also a full walk up attic. The house is surrounded by wooded parkland, bordered by a beautiful stream. The site is over 1 1/2 acres.

In 1827, John Kenderdine, a millwright, built an ox mill and dwelling for his family. Four oxen walked on a treadmill in the basement, turning gears which turned the millstones on the first floor for grinding grain. The mill operated for several years. It has been a residence for the past 174 years. It is unique - no similar building is known. Registration with the National Register of Historic Buildings may be possible.

Construction is stucco over stone. Walls are 18" thick, post and beam construction with a 'summer beam' going along the ceiling of the furst floor. Front to back interior sq. ft. 3,200.
