What is a Gettysburg Historic Home

Being a  Gettysburg Realtor and specializing Gettysburg historic homes I am often asked "What do specifically consider a Gettysburg historic home?"  The answer depends on really on how old a house you are looking for. Many of the homes here in Gettysburg are pre Civil War homes, however there are full neighborhoods such as Colt Park that were built in the 1950's.

You may not consider a home built in the 1950's to be historic but many of todays young home buyers do, those my age may choose the term "nostalgic" home "historic" home. Either way you look at it, Gettysburg Pa has a wide variety of historic home choices. If  choose to live in the Gettysburg borough Civil War and actually live in a whole neighborhood of Gettysburg historic homes. You may choose to live farther out of town and purchase a home that was used as a hospital during and after the Battle of Gettysburg. There are over 35 homes in the area that contain markers acknowledging there status as a Civil War hospital.

Gerry, love your photos.  Having grown up in a mid-century modern home that I really, really hated, it's hard to think of them as historic homes!

I love Historic homes, especially ones that have been updated tastefully and keeping the essence of the property intact. Gettysburg homes make my 80 year old house look like a youngster.
