Surrounded by history and rooted in Gettysburg's past, this late 1700's stone house is truly one of a kind! The home retains a walk-in fireplace, with a damper added in 1990, along with many original moldings, doors, and blacksmith-made latches. At the time of the Battle of Gettysburg in 1863, it was the George Trostle Farm, which consisted of 360 acres. Today, the property encompasses 4 acres and is located entirely within the National Park Service boundary. According to National Park Service documents, it was “likely used as a hospital or aid station” and is the westernmost farm on the East Cavalry Battlefield. The more famous Trostle Farm belonged to Peter Trostle, George's uncle, and is located at the foot of the infamous Little Round Top. After the battle, Peter went to the asylum, having witnessed thousands of people violate his property and bullets pierce his furniture, some of which is now on display at the Visitor Center. George rode over and helped his aunt tend the farm. In 1990, the stone house underwent an extensive renovation. The electrical, water, and plumbing systems were updated; the fireplace was uncovered; and the original stone was exposed and repointed. Additions on the southeast and northwest corners were removed, a cellar floor was poured, and a new addition was constructed. A 45' x 30' garage was also excavated and a concrete floor poured. Cinder block walls define three sides, while 8-foot garage doors define the east side. A hand-hewn chestnut barn frame dating to the late 1700s was moved approximately 110 miles from Berks County, Pennsylvania, and reconstructed over the garage, creating a two-story extension to this historic stone home. Nestled on a serene 4.03-acre lot, this charming stone farmhouse with barn addition, beautifully blends rustic elegance with modern comforts. The exterior features a delightful combination of stone and frame construction, complemented by lovely landscaping and a private, secluded setting that invites tranquility. Enjoy the picturesque views of the garden and pasture from your patio, perfect for morning coffee or evening gatherings. Step inside the 4124 Sq.
