Breathtaking landscape surround this unique, historical Chester County property. Whether you are sitting on the front porch overlooking the spring fed pond or trotting along the open pastures you are amongst the finest scenery. This farmhouse has been meticulously restored and updated keeping in mind the original details of it's 18th century origin. Three additional historic structures (5 stall bank barn, carriage house and springhouse), concierge chicken facility, oversized 2 bay garage and restored shed are all part of the 20 acre farm which hosts many possibilities for further expansion and possible usage, while benefiting from a special tax assessment under a Brandywine Conservancy Easement. This tranquil estate setting is a few minute commute to the Thorndale Septa Train Station which operates along the Main Line conveniently linking your Country Retreat to the hustle and bustle of Center City Philadelphia.
