Property Description
LAKEFRONT - NO COMMUNITY! This historic 4 bed, 3 full-bath home sits on a 2.56 acre cleared parcel bordering Lake Kiel. It is the former home of Gabriel D (1818-1880) and Maurice H (1840- 1887) Layton. Gabriel's life was depicted in the book, The Diary of Gabriel Layton and the Civil War Letters of his Son: A Chronicle of life along the river in Delaware Township, 1859- 1869. Stone walls and fireplaces reflect the home's original, old charm. The large yard, front patio, deck, screened in porch and access to Kiel Lake (A.K.A Fawn Lake) for fishing, boating and swimming, provide year round enjoyment. It is definitely a place to enjoy nature and the natural beauty of Northeastern PA. It's all just a few minutes from the historic Borough of Milford, and less than two hours from Manhattan.
