Once in a lifetime opportunity to own a slice of heaven in Marshalton, Chester County. This is one of the most beautiful and coveted parts of Chester County. These well-preserved parcels rarely become available as they are most often passed from generation to generation! Enjoy the amazingly low tax benefit of the Act 319 registered parcel. These manageable almost 21 acres consist of 2 parcels, one is 20.1 acres and the second parcel is just under . 5 acre (Tax Parcel 50-09 -0014). There is a 3 bedroom cottage complete with a wood-burning fieldstone fireplace and a small barn which was previously home to 3 mares and a colt. The current owner has fully drafted architectural plans for a whole house renovation and has already obtained septic permits. You are all set to go for the gusto or maintain the modest but livable cottage. A stream divides the property almost directly in half with half being well-manicured pasture and grass and the other half being untouched forest, perfect for every sportsman. There is a brand new tree stand overlooking the stream. This picturesque land is a mile from the Four Dogs Tavern as the crow flies and less than 10 minutes from downtown West Chester. Plain and simply, if you bought chickens at the height of the pandemic, this is your opportunity to fully realize your dream! Step back in time and schedule your tour of this magnificent property today!
