Jacob Green House

I started out as half of a house in 1720 and stayed that way until 1735 until my second half was completed, as well as the barn. When my first owners were building me and raising the barn, Native Americans kept watch from Munt Hill, across the street where you can see the land rise. Mont Hill was a favorite gathering place for Native Americans and was named after a well-known Native chief. Many generations of the Green family lived here. While many improvements have been made over the years, I still have four working fireplaces with two beehive ovens, butterfly paneling, wide pine floors, and horsehair plaster walls.
Of my three original wells, one is still operational, and it’s where a summer kitchen once stood, making it easy to wash and can vegetables right from the garden.
In my dining room is a hand painted mural that depicts neighborhood homes along Route 88, from the house next door to me all the way down the road to Applecrest.
The barn still has stalls for livestock, and most recently was home for miniature donkeys.
