Overview
The original and majestic Calkins Schoolhouse, built in the 1920 by the State of Pennsylvania, is set on 2 private acres in Milanville with a beautiful pond, offering a rare opportunity to own a true piece of local history. Originally constructed as a two-room schoolhouse, it was converted into a residence in the 1960s, and over the past 20 years the current owners have thoughtfully restored, updated, and transformed it into the spacious and one-of-a-kind home it is today. Set in a peaceful country setting just 7 miles to Honesdale and minutes to the Delaware River, this property combines history, privacy, and everyday functionality. With 6 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, the home offers exceptional space and flexibility, ideal for large or extended families, creative use, or work-from-home living. The main level features four bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a half bath, along with expansive living and dining areas highlighted by original 1920s hardwood floors. The kitchen includes tile flooring, granite countertops, and appliances. Two wood stoves add warmth and character to the living spaces. Natural light fills the home, enhanced by skylights and large windows that create a bright and inviting atmosphere throughout. The second floor offers a large open seating area, two additional bedrooms, and a private primary suite with its own full bathroom. The full unfinished basement provides a large workshop area and connects to the oversized two-car attached garage, which is heated and offers additional storage above. Enjoy the screened-in porch overlooking the pristine backyard with fruit trees, and a great view of your private pond, perfect for relaxing, entertaining, and taking in the peaceful surroundings. A rare and truly special property, created and cared for by the current owners and ready for the next owners to carry on their amazing legacy!
