Where Historic Charm Meets Modern Sophistication — Welcome to 1796 Farmhouse Living, Reimagined

Step into a masterfully reimagined farmhouse estate that effortlessly blends historic charm with refined luxury. Originally built in 1796, this captivating residence has been thoughtfully updated to accommodate modern living while preserving the warmth and character of its origins. Nestled on over an acre of meticulously landscaped grounds in the highly desirable West Chester Area School District, this property offers a stunning main residence, a detached two-bedroom cottage—ideal for extended family, guests, or a future pool house—and a large barn on a separate 1.25 +/- acre lot with potential to be transformed into an approximately 7,000-square-foot living space.

Timeless Character Meets Modern Luxury
Inside the main home, you’ll find five spacious bedrooms, three of which feature beautifully appointed ensuite bathrooms. The primary suite is a serene retreat, boasting a spa-like bathroom outfitted with luxurious Kohler Castia plumbing fixtures, a freestanding soaking tub, and a custom walk-in shower designed for total relaxation.
Original wide plank hardwood floors, exposed hand-hewn beams, and vintage architectural details are seamlessly integrated with upscale modern finishes. At the heart of the home lies a chef’s dream: a gourmet kitchen equipped with top-of-the-line Thermador appliances, custom cabinetry, designer lighting, and a large center island—perfect for both casual meals and lively entertaining.

Smart Living - Thoughtfully Integrated
Designed for both beauty and functionality, the home features a fully integrated Sonos surround sound system throughout the interior and outdoor living spaces—ideal for hosting or simply enjoying immersive audio every day. A state-of-the-art security system with cameras provides peace of mind, while brand-new HVAC, electrical, and plumbing systems offer modern reliability wrapped in old-world charm. The home is topped with a striking metal slate roof, built to last for decades.

Living Spaces That Inspire
From a formal dining room to a cozy family room with a dramatic 10-foot stone fireplace, this home is made for gathering. The sun-drenched atrium offers panoramic views of the backyard oasis, while a tucked-away speakeasy-style lounge adds a sense of fun and discovery.

Outdoor Serenity & Private Guest Cottage
Thoughtfully designed for both entertaining and everyday function, the grounds feature distinct outdoor spaces including lush gardens and patios. A separate two-bedroom cottage provides ultimate privacy for guests or serves as a future pool house. Additional purposeful spaces like a custom mudroom and dedicated laundry room bring ease to modern living. Upstairs, a versatile third-floor loft—complete with an ensuite bath and spacious walk-in closet—can serve as a private primary suite or the perfect teen retreat.

A Unique Bonus — The Barn
Included with the estate is a large barn situated on a separate 1.25 +/- acre lot. Bursting with potential, this structure offers the opportunity to be converted into an approximately 7,000-square-foot living space—perfect for multi-generational living, a guest lodge, personal event space, or a truly one-of-a-kind creative retreat.

Location & Lifestyle
Ideally situated with easy access to top-rated schools, shopping, dining, and major commuter routes, this estate offers the best of both worlds: a tranquil country feel just minutes from the heart of lively downtown West Chester, home to a plethora of restaurants, local boutiques, and year-round events that bring the community to life.
