Opportunity Knocks: Restore Historic Charm in This Chester County Farmhouse
Unleash your inner designer! This stately 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath stone farmhouse on 1.3 acres, steeped in history as the former Black Horse Inn (circa 1749), presents a rare opportunity to revitalize a piece of Chester County's past.
While boasting original period details – deep windowsills, 9-foot ceilings, wood planked floors, fireplaces, plaster walls, and classic millwork – this home is ready for modernization. Imagine transforming these historic features into a contemporary masterpiece while preserving its inherent charm.
The spacious dining room, with its estate chandelier and brick fireplace, awaits a fresh perspective. The "Stateroom," offers natural light from bay windows, offering great potential for a stunning living space.
Upstairs, the 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, while spacious, present an exciting challenge to blend modern comforts with traditional farmhouse style. The walk-up attic provides ample storage, or perhaps, the potential for expansion.
Key areas needing attention:
- Kitchen: Requires complete modernization.
- Bathrooms: Outdated fixtures and finishes demand renovation.
- Flooring: While charming, some areas may need refinishing or replacement.
- Overall Aesthetics: A full update is needed to bring this home into the 21st century.
The basement houses essential mechanicals (water filter, hot water heater, etc.), but their age should be considered in your renovation plans.
Outside, the mature landscaping offers a beautiful foundation, but will benefit from a refresh. The paved horseshoe driveway leads to a two-car detached garage, with one side converted into a studio—another space ripe for transformation.
Potential for Business/Office Use: (Variance required, see documents). This property's location offers unique business potential, but significant renovations may be needed to meet commercial standards.
This is not just a home; it's a project. A chance to breathe new life into a historic property and create a personalized sanctuary. If you're ready to roll up your sleeves and invest in a truly unique opportunity, this Chester County farmhouse awaits your vision.
