What's special

A rare opportunity to own a historic stone farmhouse in West Chester, Pennsylvania, 617 Westbourne Road is an extraordinary 1742 residence set across two parcels totaling approximately 3.2 acres in desirable Westtown Township. Blending nearly three centuries of history with thoughtfully updated modern living, this distinctive Chester County property offers three spacious bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and a period-appropriate addition designed to complement the architecture and character of the original stone farmhouse. A detached two-car garage, updated Sylvan swimming pool, composite deck, mature landscaping, and expansive private grounds complete the setting. In addition to a formal living room, family room, and utility/pantry room, the home offers additional opportunities for flexible living and future expansion. Unfinished space above the detached garage could become a home office, studio, recreation room, guest space, or potential in-law or au pair suite. The unfinished basement provides additional possibilities and includes an unfinished wine cellar. The outdoor setting is one of the property's most remarkable features. A spacious composite deck overlooks the professionally designed grounds and provides an inviting space for outdoor dining, entertaining, and enjoying the surrounding landscape. Beautifully maintained lawns are complemented by an impressive collection of specimen trees, including Black Tupelo, Scarlet Oak, clump birches, and a Redwood. The updated Sylvan pool creates a private summer retreat, while the ruins of a historic spring house provide another connection to the property's centuries-old history. The grounds are also registered as a Monarch butterfly waystation, adding to the property's distinctive natural setting. Located in Westtown Township in the West Chester Area School District and Rustin High School feeder area, 617 Westbourne Road combines acreage and privacy with exceptional access to West Chester and the surrounding region. West Chester Borough is approximately 10 minutes away, offering convenient access to downtown restaurants, shopping, events, and entertainment. Route 202 is just minutes away, and the Delaware state line is approximately 15 minutes from the property, providing easy access to Wilmington and northern Delaware. Philadelphia International Airport is approximately 22 miles away, with convenient access to I-95 and the greater Philadelphia region. For buyers searching for a historic home in West Chester, a Chester County stone farmhouse, a home with acreage and a pool, or a unique property near West Chester Borough, 617 Westbourne Road offers a combination that is increasingly difficult to find. From its 1742 stone construction and historic grounds to its pool, 3.2 acres, specimen landscaping, flexible additional spaces, and proximity to West Chester, Delaware, and Philadelphia, this is a property with a story and setting that simply cannot be replicated. A truly special opportunity to own a piece of Chester County history while enjoying the space, privacy, amenities, and conveniences of modern life.
