| Introduction |
|
Our home was built in 1933 for C.W. Richmond, a dentist, and his wife Sara. Dr. Richmond began his dental practice in New Holland in 1927. Upon his death (1975) the bulk of his estate created the Richmond-Pennock Family Scholarship Trust Fund for graduating students at Garden Spot High School. |
| The house is a large stone and clapboard country cottage home with random width oak-pegged floors downstairs and random width pine upstairs. Throughout the home all the doors have wrought iron hinges and door latches. Several Dutch doors lead to outside patios or porch areas. |

Beamed ceilings highlight the living room and dining room. The living room is dominated by a large stone fireplace that is wonderfully cozy on cool evenings while watching TV, reading, playing games or sharing lively conversation. The large gracious dining room is brightened by a crystal chandelier and crystal wall sconces. Enjoy a hearty country breakfast before you start your day of sight-seeing, antiquing or shopping in beautiful Amish country. The patios off the living and dining rooms can be enjoyed dining al fresco or by just relaxing, reading, conversing or viewing the gardens. Flowers, shrubbery and ornamental trees surround the rugged stone home which adds to its cottage feel, while a wishing well on the edge of the property beckons of an age gone by. The second floor has four beautiful suites decorated with country cottage charm. There is a secluded covered porch in the rear with rocking chairs. |

It's all here - theme parks, golf, taste-tempting tours, festivals, harvest fairs -just for starters. Add in all the great dining, shopping, outdoor recreation, museums and historic sites, and the days (and nights) get filled with fun pretty quickly. But save some time for what makes Lancaster County unique - the warmth, color and charm of our farmland communities, where a simpler way of life means a world of simple pleasures to share. Want to see, do and enjoy it all, all in one place? Then come to the one place with two names . . . Lancaster County, the Heart of Pennsylvania Dutch Country. |
