Description
At the headwaters of the Marumsco Creek lies this historic farm on 18 acres. The traditional white clapboard-sided home is a quintessential Eastern Shore telescope farmhouse. The farmhouse dates back in part of its construction to the mid-19th Century (1834-1840). The homeplace is improved with several barns and a pond side cottage. The fresh water pond is overlooked by a small cottage once built as a childhood playhouse, today offers a serene setting along the woodland edge. The private setting, tree-lined driveway and surrounding farmland along the Marumsco Creek has a true sense of place to Lankford House. The farm dates back to late 1600's when it was known then as Hignut's Choice. Much time and life have passed over this land. Today, the home is appropriately updated to modern living, while its setting and presence calls back to an earlier period of American history.View documents for proposed subdivision plat and historical records.
