Property Description
Own a piece of history in this Revolutionary War era stone farmhouse. Lovingly maintained and expanded over the centuries, West Meadow Farm has a rich story that is awaiting its next chapter. This spacious residence boasts 8 bedrooms and 7 full and 2 half bathrooms, perfect for hosting out of town guests or a growing family. As you enter the main house through the historic, chef-inspired gourmet kitchen, you will enjoy stainless steel, commercial-grade appliances, expansive counter space and cabinets with roll-out and swing-out cabinet organizers. Original restored floors, mill work, stone fireplaces and exposed trusses add to the country feel. The amazing all-stone sauna room is sure to captivate with its beautiful custom one-piece wood bench that extends the length of the room. In the evening, cozy up by the fire inside the intricately carved marble fireplace, the focal point of the original library. Natural light brightens the home through the impressive great room and spacious dining room, well-suited for family feasts and dinner parties. The property is bordered by over 1,500 acres of Natural Lands Trust preservation. Previously a working farm, these 27 acres are perfect for grazing cattle or farming and is a haven for horses. Connected by a covered breezeway to the large, original bank barn with a workshop and 6 horse stalls, is a 2 bedroom, 1.5 bathroom apartment, perfect for a groundskeeper or an in-law suite. The original stone carriage house has been restored and transformed into a two-level detached garage. Your new home is ideally positioned for private, country living with modern conveniences only minutes away, from shops to restaurants, breweries and natural grocery stores. Located in the award-winning Downingtown Area School District. Come home to a retreat, to relax and recharge, and become a part of the history and story of this amazing property.
