Meet Harry and Doris Rink, a couple who has been living in the oldest log cabin in the U.S. since 1968! The cabin is so old that it is even older than the U.S. itself, and the Rinks could not be happier there!

The Nothnagle Log House was built around 1640 and is still standing in Greenwich Township, New Jersey. Harry, 88, and Doris, 75, have just put the home up for sale after living in it for 50 years, and they’re looking for the perfect buyer to move into the cabin. Though the home has been on the market for nearly a year, the Rinks have had a difficult time selling it due to the fact that the home requires a very specific type of buyer.

Harry and Doris have no intention of leaving the home! Instead, they simply want someone to manage the property while they continue to live in the cabin and give tours of the home. They only decided to sell the property because they are getting older and want to ensure someone will take care of the cabin after they pass away.

Originally built with oak logs in 1640, the cabin was expanded in 1730 and 1900.

Located just over a mile from the Revolutionary War’s Fort Billings, the cabin gets thousands of visitors every year. The Rinks live in an addition to the cabin and they love giving tours of the home. They would like it if a college or university would purchase the home so that these tours can continue.

Though the property is on the market for $2.9 million, realtor Christina Huang says that it could actually sell for much more than that because it is full of antiques from the 1600s and 1700s.

“Because of all the artifacts and antiques that come with the house, it is probably worth well over $2.9 million,” Christina told Caters.

“A lot of things that were buried many years ago have wound up turning up in the yard,” Doris explained.

“Every single item in the cabin is an artifact or antique. There is nothing else out there like this place,” Harry said, adding that he still often finds artifacts while riding his tractor around the property.

Living in the house for so many years has given the Rinks a unique peak at life hundreds of years ago. The couple has been doing their own repairs of the home ever since they bought it.

“We try to keep it as authentic as possible,” Doris said. “Knowing the history of their day-to-day survival really makes me grateful that we have the life that we have now. I think our visitors take a step back in time when they enter our house. When they take a step in here, it’s like they’re in a different world. They block out everything else that’s going on in their lives.”
