SOLD for $1,900,000 - 106% of the Asking Price! The original portions of this estate started with a 19th century spring house & tenant house. For the 1st half of the 20th Century, this property was part of Greendale Farm. The property now offers nearly 6,000 Sq. Ft. of living space. The first thing you notice is the spring-fed pond with a fountain. One passes around the pond to the detached 3-car garage & a large parking area. The current owners significantly expanded the house in 2007 with a beautifully detailed 2-story addition that perfectly integrates into the existing 19th century home. It was designed by McIntyre Capron & Assoc. & constructed by MAF Homes. Its unique features include solid masonry walls, two sets of Juliet balconies facing the pond, a cozy balcony overlooking the rear yard, unique mock dormers & a custom cupola.

SOLD for $1,135,000! Upon the passing of Clement B. Newbold, his 350+ acre estate (Crosswicks) was sold for development. The architects (Wallace & Warner) were hired to design a series of classic country homes. This English Tudor constructed in 1933 retains so many of its original architectural elements. The original half-timbering & stucco is in exceptional condition, neatly detailed above the stone base. The slate roof retains the period appearance of its initial design. Many of the original leaded glass windows remain with unique stained & painted glass inserts.

SOLD for $755,076 - 113% of the asking Price! Welcome to Spring Brook Farmhouse! The core of this house was probably built by John Martin before 1715. John Martin was not on the early Uwchlan Tax lists but may have paid taxes in one of the adjoining townships. The western addition to the original building was constructed in 1803, per the date stone at the upper gable. It is very difficult to read, but it appears to have the initials of “C.E.M.” which could have been a descendant of John Martin. A deed from 1822 transferred the farm from Eliyah & Rebekah Davis To George Culton. Mr. Culton farmed the land, but he also ran a successful local business as a carpet manufacturer in West Pikeland, near Yellow Springs. The Culton family owned the property for three generations, calling it Spring Brook Farm, from 1822 until 1910. It was sold out of the family to Alfred Lewis Ward, who was a Philadelphia based architect that maintained this property as his summer residence.

SOLD for $685,000 on 7/8/2024 In researching the history of the property, a newspaper article from October 6, 1892 had the following entry; “House and lot in Cheltenham, T.J. Dougherty to Harriet B. Quick, $6,000.” She was married to Abram Feaster Quick. Mr. Quick was a dry goods merchant.

SOLD for $900,000 on 6/21/24! On the current property, there are two natural springs that provide near constant water flow down the rear hillside (hence the name of the house, Loudwater!) that are filled with an amazing selection of water-loving perennials along the spring banks. The two small streams converge into a culvert that carries the waters under Brandywine Creek Road and disburse on the neighboring property and into the West Branch of the Brandywine Creek. It’s an amazingly preserved, yet enhanced property in such a magical setting. Whether enjoying the sounds of the spring fed creek from the rear patio or enjoying the longer distance views of the Brandywine Creek from the front yard, it is a peaceful property on a quiet country lane, waiting for the next Steward to call it home!

This amazing 1905 California Craftsman residence was constructed for James Renwick Kerr and Anne Rulon Wetherill Kerr (likely as a wedding present from Anne's wealthy Father). It is an unusual design for the area, crafted in the style of a California Craftsman yet finished in a more conservative east-coast style with a complete, original stucco exterior. What is a California Craftsman? If you are an architectural buff, one thinks of the works of Greene & Greene and Bernard Maybeck as the primary designers of this style, in California. The design provides for inter-connectivity between the indoors & outdoors, usually in a linear fashion with most rooms providing access & windows on multiple walls to increase the natural flow of air through the home. Often incorporating structural elements as part of the design aesthetic (exposed rafter tails, stone & timber elements, etc.) and incorporating multiple porches & patios.

SOLD for $796,500 on 3/14/24! 123% of the ASKING PRICE! This jewel nestles into the landscape with many hidden surprises! In 1893, Dr. Wharton Sinkler began acquiring the land, and subsequently constructed a mansion, tenant house, barn & multiple outbuildings and named it Lifeland. The name Lifeland disappeared from public records shortly after the Sinkler family subdivided & sold the property in 1953. A new owner renamed the barn property WASAFARM! Well into the late 20th century, the owners could simply address their mail to Wasafarm, Wyncote, PA 19095 and the post office would deliver! The property now incorporates just over 1 acre. The tenant cottage offers 1,250 SF of living space while the bank barn provides nearly 3,700SF of heated workspace!

SOLD for $725,000 on 12/11/23! Construction of this amazing historic property began in 1754 by Jehu Maris, the great grandson or George Maris. George Maris was one of the original Penn land grant purchasers and came to the colonies in 1683 with his six children. The name Springfield is attributed to Mr. Maris for discovering a natural spring on his newly acquired lands. While the Maris family emigrated from Worcester county in England, there is actually a named “hill” in Surrey, England called Chicakabiddy Hill! What stands today is a remarkably intact, yet thoughtfully updated 18th century farmhouse on a remarkably large 1.2 acre parcel of ground!
