Property Description

Nestled on the shores of beautiful Deer Lake, this masterfully reimagined 1880s barn home is a symphony of provenance, craftsmanship, and storytelling. Painstakingly reconstructed with reverence to its origins, the barn was originally crafted by Civil War veteran Michael Welker, a participant in the Battle of Gettysburg. Today, it stands as a living archive of American heritage—one that was honored in Lake and Company magazine and featured by Ohio Valley Barn Salvage. This extraordinary residence unfolds over a canvas of hand-hewn timber, alder wood accents, and centuries-old salvaged materials sourced from historic American landmarks. Custom alder front doors are flanked by cast iron Craftsman lanterns with original 1917 slag glass. Throughout the home, each element evokes a tactile connection to the past—whether it’s the 1920s Art Deco sconces from Valley City, North Dakota, or the pantry door adorned with hand-etched 1910 glass. The kitchen is a bespoke work of art, where wormy chestnut cabinetry, hemlock barn siding, and alder wood appliance panels converge. The island, built from global shipping timbers once used at Wyoming’s Laramie Railroad Depot, is paired with a mid-1800s Iowa general store counter, creating a culinary space both soulful and functional. Reclaimed wood flooring from 1800s Ohio barns flows seamlessly through the main living spaces, where an 1885 parlor stove anchors the room. The staircase, constructed of solid oak threshing boards from Ohio and Pennsylvania—features decorative cast iron panels originally part of an 1860s Cincinnati fireplace insert. History whispers through every room: Doors from the former Nazareth College in Kalamazoo now grace the hallways. Hickory cabinetry in the master suite and lower level echo a timeless durability, while live edge maple window sills from Northern Minnesota add a refined rusticity. The basement family room pays homage to Americana with barnwood paneling from Montgomery, MN, a Kenosha restaurant freezer door from the 1960s, and glass etchings from a 1910 Kenyon farmhouse. Each fixture—from the 1924 schoolhouse lights to the antique vents and 1908 parlor stove—was chosen not just for function, but for story. Hand-forged metalwork by Black Turtle Metal Works in Western North Carolina finishes the home with a tactile authenticity, from light switch plates to custom handles. More than a home, this is a curated experience—an architectural palimpsest built upon the bones of American history and shaped by generations of artisans. For the discerning buyer seeking a legacy property unlike any other, this is your invitation. Offered exclusively by appointment.
