About this home
A remarkable blend of history, character, and country living awaits at 1272 Hollow Road in Chester Springs. Set on 5 beautiful acres in West Vincent Township, this circa-1850 home is listed on the historic registry and offers more than 3,500 square feet of above-grade living space, five bedrooms, two full and one half baths, and a setting that feels wonderfully removed while remaining in the Owen J. Roberts School District. Thoughtfully renovated in the early 2000's, the home retains the details that give an older property its soul while incorporating the space and functionality needed for everyday living. Inside, hardwood floors, substantial millwork, exposed beams, stone accents, built-ins, and architectural details speak to the home's history. The spacious kitchen serves as the heart of the home with rich wood cabinetry, a large center island with seating, stainless steel appliances, recessed and pendant lighting, and generous workspace and storage. Nearby dining and gathering spaces provide plenty of room for both everyday meals and entertaining. The home offers multiple living areas, including a cozy room with exposed ceiling beams, built-in bookshelves and a stove, as well as a light-filled living room with a fireplace, vaulted ceiling and skylight. Upstairs, the primary bedroom features a tray ceiling, detailed millwork and plantation shutters, while the primary bath offers a dual vanity, soaking tub and separate shower. Four additional bedrooms provide plenty of flexibility for family, guests, home offices or hobby space. A second full bath adds even more character with a clawfoot tub and dual vessel sinks. The property outside is just as compelling. Five acres combine horse pastures and open ground with mature woods creating a beautiful backdrop with room to enjoy the outdoors, garden, recreate or simply appreciate the privacy. A covered front porch offers a peaceful spot to take in the surroundings. For those needing serious storage, hobby or recreational space, the property includes a detached garage with stairs to a second-floor attic, plus a large storage shed with a raised roof designed to accommodate an ATV or side-by-side, along with lawn equipment and other gear. Need more space? The detached two-car garage delivers, with generous room for vehicles, equipment, and hobbies, plus a large walk-up second-floor attic offering exciting finishing potential. Imagine a private home office, creative studio, workshop, game room, or simply incredible additional storage—the space is ready for the next owner to make it their own. With its 1870 origins, historic designation, 5-acre setting, 3,551 square feet, versatile outbuildings and distinctive architectural character, 1272 Hollow Road is anything but ordinary. This is an opportunity to own a piece of Chester County history while enjoying the space, privacy and possibilities of a true country property.
