Property Description
Welcome to this enchanting and historic Chester County property, originally built in 1800 as a dairy farm and now beautifully renovated to seamlessly blend old-world charm with modern amenities. Set on one acre, this property features two distinct structures: a historic two-story stone bank barn and a guest cottage. The fully renovated barn showcases a harmonious mix of historic character and contemporary luxury. Recent updates include a new kitchen and a stylish bathroom, making this space as functional as it is beautiful. One of the barn?s most striking features is the second-story catwalk that overlooks the open space below, complete with a dedicated workspace perfect for those seeking a creative or office environment. The barn also includes a commercial-grade heating system, ensuring comfort year-round, and the spacious lower-level barn basement offers endless possibilities for storage, workshops, or hobbies, particularly for car enthusiasts. Outside, a fenced-in courtyard provides a private, serene space for relaxation or entertaining.
Attached to the barn is a renovated two-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment that perfectly combines modern convenience with rustic charm. The kitchen, equipped with a gas range, double oven, brand-new appliances, and granite countertops, is a chef's delight. The living area centers around a Vermont Cast Defiant wood-burning stove, offering warmth and a welcoming ambiance. Throughout the property, reclaimed oak and wormy big heart pine hardwood floors, along with exposed original wood beams, add character and warmth. The spacious bedrooms provide ample closet space, and the home is equipped with convenient laundry facilities. The newly added front deck is an ideal spot to enjoy morning coffee or evening sunsets, with stunning views of Chester County?s picturesque landscape.
The guest cottage on the property features one bedroom, one bathroom, and a private fenced yard, offering all the comforts of modern living while retaining its timeless appeal. Its open floor plan includes a chic kitchen, dining area, and a spacious living room with a wood-burning stove, perfect for cozy nights. Attached to the cottage is a two-car garage, currently functioning as a glass-blowing studio, making it an ideal creative workspace. Whether you're an artist seeking a creative haven, a hobbyist in need of a functional workspace, or simply someone looking for additional room to pursue your passions, this versatile studio offers endless possibilities tailored to suit your unique needs. Its flexible layout ensures that whatever your vision, this space can easily adapt to accommodate it.
For those who love fresh produce, the property also boasts peach trees, various berries, and paw paws, a native Pennsylvania fruit. Additionally, the property offers ample parking and convenient access to nearby Marsh Creek State Park, restaurants, and major routes. Whether you're looking for a unique home with income-producing opportunities, a live-work space, or a peaceful retreat, this property offers modern amenities, boundless potential, and timeless character.
