Amish Homes

Let’s have a look inside an Amish home in the traditional community at Ellenboro, NC. But first – the Swartzentruber Amish came to North Carolina in 2015, becoming the second Amish community in NC (not second ever, but second at that time). Since then, the community seems to have grown a bit, but not at a very fast pace. When I visited there last year,…

West Virginia has become one of the “rapid growth” Amish states. It’s gone from three to 14 communities in just eight years. So it’s no surprise to see an Amish home from the state up for sale online (I believe this is the first I’ve come across from the Mountain State). As you can see it is an interesting style – low-profiled, and very long…

Now for something a bit different – an Amish-owned modular home. It’s not the first modular or mobile home we’ve featured (by my count, it’s the third), but I’d say it’s the coziest – hence the title. This one comes to us from Princeton, Missouri (Mercer County), home to a pair of Amish communities – one a good-sized one of over 600 people. Sometimes people are…

Here’s another simple but beautiful Amish home. We’ve already seen one home from this community (Harmony, Minnesota), which was one of the most attractive Amish homes we’ve featured here. This one is similar. It’s described as a “hobby farm” in the listing – a five-bedroom home on 6.5 acres. This is a Swartzentruber Amish community, so that means the home has no bathrooms. Here’s the…

This week’s Amish home is in the wonderfully-named location of Bliss, New York (Wyoming County). The area is home to a 200-plus person Amish community that hasn’t been there too long – only since 2019. It’s a nice-looking home on a large property – over 60 acres. Like the last New York Amish home we looked at, it’s another home that’s built for a large…

This is a pleasant Amish home in upstate New York. It’s got seven bedrooms, and two bathrooms. Right off the bat that tells you it’s not the plainest Amish group. And while that bedroom-to-bathroom ratio may seem high for a non-Amish home, for the Amish it’s about par for the course. The home address is Fillmore, NY. The Amish have lived here since the 1980s…

Here we have a neat Amish home in west-central Pennsylvania (Luthersburg). There are some really nice photos here – and interesting features to check out in this large-family home. I’m calling this home “plainly” beautiful because it provides a striking visual contrast. As you’ll see below, it has an almost fancy-looking, beautiful space downstairs – and very plain upstairs rooms. This is part of a…

I’m calling this “not your typical” Amish home for a couple of reasons. One is the interior. As you’ll see below, it has its share of typical Amish elements. But you’ll also notice the overall look of the home is quite different from many of the homes we feature. Another thing that makes it “not your typical” Amish home is that it is on a…

I love the photos of this Amish home, on the market in southern Indiana. You’ll see some really neat interior pics below – a mix of plainer rustic charm and spaciousness. These are pretty fresh photos as well going by the snow (it’s only been on Zillow for about three weeks). The community is at Vevay, Indiana (home to two separate Amish groups). The description…

This home is a “cousin” of the “austere” Amish home that we viewed back in December. It’s in the same Michigan community – in fact, on the very same road. Perhaps that means that there is a general out-migration happening here in this settlement. Or, perhaps more likely, given their closeness, these two families are related – and they are simply moving out together. This…
