Looks like it'd be an incredible restoration opportunity. If I won powerball I could maybe have it turned into a museum or "historic reproduction compound" like Sturbridge Village is but on a smaller scale. Turn the barn into the display area, have a penny candy and Central Florida gift shop in the main house, during nice weather have actors in period costume teaching how to churn butter or something like that.
