This charming history-rich home, once a barn as part of the Biddle estate, was originally on the site of a working apple farm, built in the late 1800's. The family s children, converted the barn into a unique summer retreat, creating additions * making updates in the late 60's/early 70's. Along the long private drive remain some of the original apple trees. The large estate sits on Duncan Lane. The current property has an entrance marked by 2 stone pillars and the original wrought iron gates.
