If you're yearning for the charm of an old house visit the "John Hannum Tenant House" ? a Chester County Day home located on a quiet road but convenient to major roads, schools and parks. The yard - with huge old maple, holly, locust and black walnut trees - is partially fenced; original spring house ruins can be seen in the wooded area. Typical of many Chester County homes this one was built in 3 stages; the earliest (from the late 18th c. ) is today the large Dining Room with walk-in fireplace and the oven. The adjacent room ? now the Living Room ? was built in the mid-19th c and has original wide-plank floors, curved window surrounds with wide window sills and built-in cabinets and fireplace. A corkscrew stairway leads to bedrooms above. The newest part of the house (1940's) contains the kitchen entered from a large porch overlooking the spacious lawn. There are a total of 4 bedrooms (2 w/ fireplaces) and 2 full baths upstairs. In addition there is a finished lower level which has a private two-room suite with fireplace, kitchenette and full bath. This area, although connected to the rest of the house, also has its own entrance so could be an in-house office, apartment, in-law suite, etc. (This area is not included in square footage. ) The inside has been recently painted and has gorgeous hardwood floors ? some tongue and groove, some random width ? most recently refinished. Architectural details such as original hardware and woodwork have been preserved. All 5 fireplaces are working. Public water and gas are located in the street and could be connected to this house. HOME WARRANTY included. NOTE: The 28 acre farm across the street is in a Township Natural Trust and will not be developed. Its owner's intention is to restore the historic homestead. Seller is a licensed Pa. Realtor.

R-2
Residential District
It is the intent of the R-2 District, as outlined in the East Bradford Township Comprehensive Plan, to provide for low-density residential development in areas of the Township which are not generally characterized by steep slopes or floodplains, but which nevertheless contain soils conditional for on-lot sewage disposal systems and variable groundwater yields; to encourage continued agricultural, open space and conservation uses; and to encourage and promote phased development throughout the Township by permitting low-density residential uses in the R-2 District until other areas of the Township more accessible to adequate services and transportation are fully developed in medium- and high-density residential uses. The R-2 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.
