Owned by the same family for three generations, this 22-acre estate is now available for sale for the first time. Two parcels combine to create 22 acres of lush farmland, offering stunning views of protected Chester County land, including meadows, woods, the estate and barn areas, and a stone Springhouse which hosts the headwaters of a tributary that feeds into Pickering Creek. This peaceful property is proudly protected by the National Lands due to its geological importance and its proximity to the renowned Binky Lee Preserve. The estate itself comprises the original stone home, a barn, and a large garage. Notable original features of the home include exposed stone walls, wooden beams, and brick floors. Two outdoor sitting areas are available: the covered front stone patio facing rolling open grounds in front of Indian Springs, and the side porch, providing a lovely spot to enjoy the sights and sounds of the property. The home has been expanded, updated, and maintained to be the perfect country farmhouse. The kitchen, the heart of the home, is bright, airy, and spacious, featuring exposed wooden beam construction, exposed stone, a long kitchen island, and an eat-in dining area, making it ideal for gatherings of any size. Windows look out to the grounds and the barn. The living room features a deep windowsills, exposed beams, and a warm blend of brick and hardwood floors. Adjacent to the living room is another bright room, suitable for use as a den, office, or playroom. The front two bedrooms on the second floor are part of the original home. Through the larger bedroom, walk-up stairs provide access to the floored attic for storage. The addition on the rear of the home hosts the spacious primary bedroom suite with a large walk-in closet, views of the grounds, and direct access to the full hall bath with a shower/tub combo and a large linen closet. The second full bath, with a stall shower, is located on the first floor. The basement is larger than expected and has taller ceilings in the rear where the addition was built. The original hand-pumped well is preserved in the back left corner of the home as a nod to the incredible history of the property. In addition to the farmhouse, the stone and wood barn was renovated in 2012 and offers endless usage opportunities, serving as a true centerpiece of the property. The final structure is the 2-car oversized garage with pull-down stairs to access the fully floored second level for additional storage. Thanks to the National Lands protection and Act 319, the taxes are an incredibly low $4,860 for the year. The property is zoned for Lionville Elementary and Middle Schools and Downingtown East High School, and students have the opportunity to apply to the STEM school, a world International Baccalaureate academy. Schedule a personal tour of the home and grounds to see how you can own a pristine and pure piece of Chester County grounds and history.
