Home Features

846 E JAMESTOWN RD has been the Campbell family's homesite since James Campbell founded Jamestown in 1853! The Boro was then incorporated in 1853.
Large Country Kitchen with lots of granite and maple cabinetry
Incredible hardwood oak flooring, spacious rooms, newer metal roof, James Hardie cement siding, and solid oak doors throughout.
The eight-car parking consists of two cars in the Integral Garage, three cars fit under the carport, and three cars fit easily in the Barn. Additionally, there is more off-street parking with the long driveway and concrete pad.
Many antique furniture pieces remain with the home.
The private 2nd-floor balcony is an excellent spot for morning coffee or midnight wine; the newly upgraded, 16'x3.5' deck/balcony adds charm!

Lot Features

The home faces the valley with gorgeous country views!
VIRTUALLY STAGED FENCE & HORSES: LOOKING EAST from the Kitchen window: This is where the Owner dreamed of adding a fence and raising horses; his service in the Army did not allow time for that, and since his retirement, our US Army Colonel has been updating the home. We hope the new owner will finish this dream!... Here, you also see the rock garden and the raised garden beds, which add color; the woods provide excellent privacy.
LOOKING NORTH from the back door: Great panoramas of the 10.3 acres, the large barn, the lean-to, the rock gardens, and the raised beds.
LOOKING WEST: The 16'x3.5' upper balcony and the main floor bedroom look West; what a beautiful view to watch the changing seasons.
LOOKING SOUTH from the front door: At the turn of the century, great-great-grandpappy James (circa Jamestown) chose this scenic spot out of his over 120 acres to build his home; he chose wisely! The views are spectacular.

Horse Facility Features

The wonderful 50’x30’ two-story barn is made of local hemlock from the Amish saw mills; George single-handedly built the barn in 1987-1988. The 50’x10’ carport attached to the barn has a new metal roof, put on in 2023.
