Property Description
Set on more than 1.3 private, beautifully landscaped acres in Newtown Square, this distinguished historic residence offers 6,000+ square feet of living space in one of Delaware Countys most established settings. Originally built in 1840 and thoughtfully expanded in 1910 and 2008, the Federal-style home combines enduring American architecture with the scale, privacy, and flexibility expected of a substantial estate property. Positioned quietly off the road, the home has an immediate sense of permanence. Thick stone walls, hardwood floors, detailed crown moldings, multiple fireplaces, and well-proportioned rooms reflect craftsmanship rarely replicated today. Across three full stories and a finished basement, the residence offers 6 bedrooms, 8 bathrooms, and a remarkably adaptable floor plan suited to large households, multigenerational living, entertaining, private offices, or extended guest accommodations. The great room creates a natural gathering space for everyday living, while two ensuite primary bedrooms offer added privacy and flexibility. Original architectural details remain throughout the home, including front and rear staircases, extensive millwork, and a distinctive interior smoke room that speaks to the propertys history. Modern improvements, including an updated shingle roof and Viking gas appliances in the kitchen, complement the homes historic character without diminishing it. Outside, more than 1,600 square feet of wraparound decking and patio space overlook mature landscaping and generous grounds, offering an unusually private setting for entertaining or quiet enjoyment. A circular driveway establishes a proper estate arrival, while the detached, climate controlled three-car garage provides both presence and practical utility. A separate office area further expands the propertys versatility and could accommodate a home-based business, private studio, professional workspace, or creative use. The acreage also presents meaningful long-term potential, with room to expand the existing residence or potentially introduce a secondary structure, subject to applicable approvals. This is a property of genuine substance: historic without feeling ornamental, substantial without being excessive, and private without sacrificing convenience. For the buyer seeking scale, architectural character, usable acreage, and the opportunity to shape an important Newtown Square residence for the next generation, few properties offer a comparable combination of history, flexibility, and long-term value.
