About This Home
As of April 2016Are you looking for a unique opportunity to own a piece of History in Chester County? Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, The Whitford Station House has been completely renovated and restored to it's splendor. The interior boasts a turn of the century aesthetic with unbeatable charisma. This desirable setting is in an attractive and convenient location, (a short walk to the Whitford Train Station) while still being in close proximity to many lifestyle amenities and major travel routes. Inside you'll find the original late 19th century random width hardwood pine flooring, three fireplaces, a brick kitchen floor, original moldings, and charming fixtures throughout. The first floor offers a convenient mudroom which leads way to the brick floored eat-in kitchen. A large family room, laundry area, and full bathroom complete the lower level. The second floor boasts the original "parlor," as well as a large bedroom. The upper level features two additional large bedrooms as well an additional full bath, and walk up attic for additional storage. Enjoying the exterior will make you feel like you are on a retreat, or at your vacation home. The covered front porch offers a serene view of the neighbors pond/waterfall with a stream bordering the property. On almost an acre, the property is adorned by mature trees and foliage, with a large fenced in yard and picnic area. Other bonuses include: an oversized three car garage(with new garage door openers), additional driveway parking, a new cedar roof, a brand new well that was drilled in 2014, a new pellet stove, as well as a brand new heater in 2015. Looking to add on later? The Historic Committee has approved this property to put an addition on and tax credits are available to do so! A fantastic price, affordable real estate taxes, why rent when you can own?
