WOW! That is the typical response when visiting this absolutely charming, completely renovated, Circa 1790 Historic colonial cottage. This truly unique home blends wonderfully the allure of a by-gone era and modern amenities. The kitchen is the crown jewel of the home, featuring quartz countertops and top-of-the-line Bosch, Sharp, and Thermador appliances. The Master Bedroom is located on the first floor and offers a view to the spacious backyard and neighboring cornfield & pasture. You'll love the Master Bathroom, as the shower is glass and built along exposed original stone walls. A new dry bar joins a cozy sitting room with fireplace and living room that overlooks the backyard as well. Two more bedrooms are upstairs, along with two sitting rooms and a second full bath. Refinished wide plank wood floors run throughout the home. The home is has a nice secluded feel, as no other homes are visible from the home and vast majority of the property. However, there are regular visits from all sorts of wildlife, especially at night and early morning. If you love Chester County country-style living, you have found your new home on Allerton Road! Make an appointment and visit today!!

R-1
Residential District
It is the intent of the R-1 District, as outlined by the East Bradford Township Comprehensive Plan, to support the preservation of critical natural resources, such as streams, floodplains, wet soils, variable groundwater yield areas and conditionally suitable soil for on-lot sewage disposal systems; to encourage continued agricultural, open space and conservation uses; and to provide for continued low-density residential development that is compatible with established land use patterns. The R-1 District establishes maximum density standards which: Provide for low-density residential uses on a lot-by-lot basis, as well as an open space development option that encourages the preservation of open space ancillary to such development; and; Promote the conservation of surface water and groundwater supplies, soils for on-lot sewage disposal systems and the control of soil erosion and flooding.
