The kitchen was added in 1967, basement under the bedrooms and the kitchen, stone under the bedroom quarried 1/2 mile away. The home on another farm I rent is all stone 2 story about 30x40 and was built in 1869, a kitchen was added sometime around the turn of the century but years of neglect had left it in poor shape, landowner tore the kitchen off and built a new 40x60 home on to the old stone home.

I'm hoping to add a mudroom/screen porch and extend the bathroom in the next few years.
