Their place was on the first township census maps in 1600-something; the house turned 400 years old while we/they were living there (late 60s-early 80's). I have warm memories about that house. Hmph, not to ruin the zeitgeist of the thread, but...thanks for posting it!

Ours was built in 1963, but it's a classic split level colonial, and a very common design in this area. The development was built on an orchard-and-what-have-you plot that was subdivided. The original home dates to the mid 1700s and is listed as an historical building. It looks very similar to the "newer" homes.
