Part Antique, Part Modern, This Pennsylvania Mashup Is Available for $749K

“Exotic” and “Pennsylvania” aren’t usually two words that go together, but that’s just what you’ll get in this 3,870-square-foot hybrid home in Macungie, PA.

Originally built as a barn in 1805, the property was later converted into a farmhouse—with a big design twist.

“The most recent owner is an artist passionate about ‘broken style,’ which means antique plus modern design combined with modern appliances,” explains listing agent Marina Gabunia.

“Old statues, antiques from an old pharmacy, and pieces from old churches, all contributed to designing this house,” Gabunia adds.

Hodge-podge house

The home is listed for $749,000, and among the many unique treasures it has to offer is $42,000 worth of old apothecary cabinets in the kitchen as well as some of the arched doors throughout the home. These items were sourced from the Scranton Antiques Shop.

“The current owner used this place for his vacation home after a busy workweek in Manhattan, so he tried to create a home away from home with this design,” says Gabunia.

The three-bedroom, 2.5-bath farmhouse comes with 3 acres. The outdoor space features a fountain just beyond the main entrance and a swimming pond out back that’s fed by a nearby creek.

The homeowner, who’s lived here since 2004, has installed a new roof, a $2,000 sink in the powder room, and a $3,000 chandelier in the main living space.

The town of Macungie is close to parks, wineries, farmers markets, and even a local ski area.
