About this home

Late 1700s Chester County stone farmhouse on 4 acres of perennial gardens, beautiful yard and ornamental trees. Truly a hidden gem of a property merging the charm of the historic with the conveniences of a significant newer addition including kitchen, sitting room, mud room and master bedroom suite. Most utilities upgraded recently including newer Buderus efficient boiler and hot water heater. Two car garage / workshop, vegetable garden, and expansive back yard make this "Country Property" a peaceful and naturally vibrant property. 3 Bedrooms, 2 and 1 half bath. Master bedroom suite with cathedral ceilings and abundant windows give great views of the meadow and the privacy of the natural back yard. Covered wrap around porches accomplishes the same on the first floor, as well as from the modern sitting room. Room to expand on the third floor and the garage / workshop, but not necessary if charm and efficiency are paramount. A nature lovers dream property.
