Historic Biever House – Annville, Lebanon County, PA

Offered at Auction | 49 S. White Oak Street

Step into more than two centuries of Pennsylvania history at the Biever House, a distinguished stone residence dating to the late 18th century and recognized for its architectural and cultural significance in Annville. Prominently located along South White Oak Street, this two and a half storied property stands as a rare surviving example of early German-influenced stone construction in the region.

Built of thick native limestone walls, the home reflects the craftsmanship and permanence of its era—features that are immediately evident upon entering. Original and early-period details remain throughout, including exposed stone, wide-plank floors, deep-set windows, and traditional room proportions that speak to the home’s long and thoughtful stewardship.

The main residence offers generous living spaces filled with natural light, blending historic character with everyday livability. Multiple rooms showcase period millwork and architectural details that cannot be replicated, creating an authentic sense of place for preservation-minded buyers, history enthusiasts, or those seeking a truly unique residence. Included with the purchase of the home are the refrigerator and stove in the kitchen of the main home and the refrigerator, stove, washer and dryer in the Detached Summer Kitchen.

Detached Summer Kitchen / Auxiliary Building
Adding to the property’s appeal is a separate former summer kitchen, an increasingly rare feature of early Pennsylvania homes. This detached structure has been thoughtfully adapted and offers exceptional flexibility to serve as a guest suite, studio, in-law quarters, home office, or creative retreat, while still honoring its original purpose as part of the historic homestead.

Setting & Location
