About this home
Set on a peaceful lot in the beautiful rolling hills of East Fallowfield Township, this circa-1880 home blends rustic character with flexible living space and unique outbuildings. This property is perfect for handy buyers or contractors with the skill and resources to make the most of all this property offers. Beyond the main house, the property includes two additional structures with exciting potential. A small cottage with a full bath, kitchenette, and sleeping loft, is currently rented by a long-time tenant, offering income opportunity, though it would benefit from updates. The cottage and main home share the well and septic. A larger two-story outbuilding provides a blank canvas for an artist’s studio, workshop, or creative space, but will require significant restoration to bring it back to full functionality. Clad in classic cedar shake siding and topped with a durable metal roof, the main home is reminiscent of a New England saltbox or English cottage, particularly with the surrounding gardens and pretty stone patio. You'll notice, as is typical with older homes, there have been additions over the years, reflecting the house's historic roots while offering room to make it your own. A sweet stone walkway leads to the front door and convenient vestibule entry. Kick off your shoes and leave your umbrella before you enter this warm and welcoming home. Inside you'll find rich wood flooring throughout and a spacious layout. Begin in the large living room anchored by a cozy wood stove, perfect for large gatherings of family and friends or a quiet evening at home. The generously sized kitchen with a peninsula opens up to the dining room ideal for hosting and everyday use. They share a very pretty built-in cabinet along one wall and the dining room boasts a whimsical mural (paper) and French style doors out to a stone patio. Pull up a stool at the peninsula for a quick breakfast or to chat with the cook. This floor also includes a main level bedroom with a very cute reading nook, a relatively new full bathroom that shares space with the convenient main floor laundry room and a flex room for an office or playroom with a slider to a small deck. Head upstairs to the generously sized primary bedroom, a second bedroom with built-in shelving and 2 small closets and a full hall bath with shower. In the hallway, is a large closet to service the primary bedroom and bright desk area for sewing, crafts, or a homework station. The finished attic is currently used as a bedroom, but alternatively offers excellent space for storage or a flex room. There is a partial, dirt floor utility cellar and crawl space accessed from the outside. The home is heated by a propane forced-air system serving the main floor, with passive heat rising to the upper level. The wood stove offers additional heating and there is a tankless hot water system powered by propane. Most windows have been replaced over the years. Surrounded by gorgeous Chester County horse country (views of pastures across the street) and within a short drive to The Laurels Preserve for hiking, Plantation Field Horse Trials which hosts a multitude of events, Longwood Gardens, West Chester, Unionville and Kennett Square, Parkesburg or Thorndale for everyday shopping, Triple Fresh Market for a quick lunch and the new Doe Run Elementary School. With its historic charm, versatile layout, and opportunity for improvement, this property is well-suited for those looking to invest, create, or simply enjoy a distinctive home with character....
