Note From the Owner: 

There are old houses, and then there are houses that feel like they’ve been here forever.

Tucked along Beaver Creek in West Brandywine Township, 643 E. Reeceville Road is a remarkable historic stone home with roots reaching deep into Chester County’s colonial past.

The property is believed to have originally been part of a land grant under William Penn’s proprietorship, and the original home dates to 1764.

The historic house features beautiful fieldstone construction, wide-plank floors, exposed beams, 2 fireplaces, and an original stone springhouse. Beaver Creek winds through the property, creating a setting that is as special as the house itself.

And while the history is extraordinary, this isn’t a home stuck in the past.

  • New Roof
  • New HVAC
  • New Septic System
  • Updated kitchen
  • Updated Bathrooms
  • New Water Filtration
  • New Windows

This is a home for someone who appreciates history, architecture, land, and authenticity, but doesn’t want to spend their weekends rebuilding a centuries-old house.

Imagine owning a piece of the Chester County landscape that has been here longer than America itself, with the comfort and updates of a modern home.

Not just a house. A piece of Pennsylvania history.
