On the outskirts of Emmaus, a piece of history stands on a quiet road along
the bank of Indian Creek. Powder Valley Mill dates to 1886 and served as a
feed, grist and flour mill for the area until 1967. A few years later, the
structure was converted into a very special residence that has been brought
into the 21st century with style and sophistication yet retains many of its
original workings.
Reminders of the past are numerous and cleverly integrated into the home.
Prominently set in the stone walkway leading to the front entry is an old
grist mill wheel. The hood over a wood-burning stove is a former sifting funnel
and the now elegant dining room housed the flour mill centuries ago.
Gleaming oak floors are found throughout the residence. A massive summer beam
traverses the main level and well planned windows illuminate the living
space. On the second floor are four generously-sized bedrooms, three with
en suite baths. An impressive third floor master suite, currently under renovation,
prominently displays the gears and pulleys that were the heart of
the mill. The 1912 cupola, a crow's nest getaway high above the treetops, is an unexpected delight.
Side and rear decks take full advantage of the natural beauty that surrounds
Powder Valley Mill. Magnificent trees, the sound of the creek flowing past,
and the waterfall from the neighboring pond are soothing to the senses.
Perhaps the most impressive treat is sharing an outdoor meal with friends
and catching a glimpse of the seldom seen locomotive that runs within view
of the property.
