1956 photo           Peter's Fruit Farm

Although the stucco has been removed from the stone section of this early 19th century home, you can still recognize it in the present day picture on the right, compared to the 1956 picture on the left.  Peter's Fruit Farm is the traditional name for this historic home in Paper Mill Falls in the City of Newark, Delaware.

One big difference is that there is no longer a fruit orchard in back of the house, but rather an "Over 55" community (there are no age restrictions on this historic home). Although the owners of this house get their grass cut and their snow shoveled, they are more the "older aunt" in the community who dresses in an old-fashioned way, and everyone loves her for it.

Details:  357 Old Paper Mill Rd. Newark DE 10711  Open House Sunday, November 21 from 1-4 PM. Price is $299,900.  3 Bedrooms, 1 1/2 Baths  MLS 5766342   Property website www.psre.com/1006
