Step back in time with this charming 1800s home that combines history with modern living. This historic log cottage covered in weatherboard siding has been expanded and adapted many times over the years. The building may have been a \u201cstarter home\u201d for Charles Grim, Jr., whose father willed this property to him in 1778.
The building\u2019s humble beginnings and unpretentious demeanor are reflected in the assortment of window styles, dormer addition, Victorian-era porch, and multiple rear additions, each one showing a choice to enhance or improve the building to the current needs of the owners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The property left the Grim family in 1866, likely coinciding with the first building expansion of an ell and an Italianate-style front porch with jig-sawn brackets and pendants. The next wave of expansions happened in the 1930s and 1950s. Work included digging out a basement and removing an exterior chimney, as well as adding a large display window for the building\u2019s time as a twentieth-century meat market. Beulah Carpenter, who purchased the home in 1938, was quoted in the 1976 Architectural Survey, \u201cWe sold over 3,000 hogs here.\u201d Today, the building has been returned to residential use with an interior just as charming as its exterior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PHW is grateful to homeowners Lindsay Browning and Jayden Sibert for opening their home to this year’s tour.<\/p>\n\n\n
