This 5-acre lot was part of the original home farm purchased by Ken's great-great-grandpa in 1893. It was owned by Ken's sister and her husband from 2005-2023. They built the house and barn. You can read the story of how we came into ownership of this property in the different chapters on our blog page: Guest House Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, and Part 5.
