Welcome to a rare treasure tucked in the Chester County countryside. This four-bedroom, two-bath historic home offers 2,660 square feet of living space on 4.3 acres of private, park-like grounds. Known as the original Mill Keeper’s House, this 300-year-old stone and stucco residence was fully renovated to code in 2010 and has been further enhanced with many recent upgrades, including a fully renovated kitchen, new well pump and water filtration system, new boiler, new water heater, and fresh interior paint throughout much of the home.<br />
The property invites you into a lifestyle of serenity and timeless beauty. Enjoy two spring-fed ponds, one with a brand-new fountain that adds gentle sound and movement to the landscape. Explore landscaped gardens, a half-acre fenced pasture, and a historic pitcher well pump just off the elevated deck—all combining to make the grounds feel like your own private retreat.<br />
Inside, you’ll be charmed by refinished original wood floors, exposed stone walls, hand-hewn beams, and the home's original stone chimney, now the backdrop to a cozy gathering room with a gas-fired wood stove.<br />
The detached two-car garage includes additional rooms perfect for storage, workshop space, or creative use, along with three additional dedicated parking spots on a newly poured crushed stone driveway.<br />
Additional features include a new sump pump, electric service with generator transfer switch, separate electric service for the garage, and a septic system that was recently pumped, serviced, and professionally inspected.<br />
Located just minutes from the Octorara Reservoir, with opportunities for fishing, kayaking, and peaceful nature walks, this is more than just a home—it’s a sanctuary of history, beauty, and thoughtful living.<br />
Whether you're a history enthusiast, a nature lover, or someone who simply appreciates a truly one-of-a-kind property, the Mill Keeper’s House is ready to welcome you home. |
