Panoramic views surround this gracious manor home with guest cottage and equestrian barns at Chester County’s Delchester Farm. First constructed by one of the financiers of the Revolutionary War, this country retreat was later expanded by renowned architects Willing, Sims, and Talbutt and extensively renovated in the last 20 years. The well-maintained estate, with its elegant home, stone-and-wood barns and a guest cottage, exists within a landscape of quiet beauty. This and surrounding properties totaling nearly 5,000 acres in Willistown Township are under conservation easements. The 24 acres of Delchester Farm have transferred ownership just twice in 100 years. A long drive passing split-rail fences and open pastures leads to the main house, built of glittering Pennsylvania fieldstone. The entry hall features a gleaming black marble floor, French doors at either end, and ten-foot ceilings that continue throughout. A generously scaled living room feels both elegant and welcoming, with its dark wood floor, built-ins, and carved fireplace mantel. Across the hall stands the original parlor, with another large fireplace, a bar, and an original door topped with a glass transom. A bright dining room with magnificent views welcomes guests with another fireplace, chair rail, and Clarence House wallpaper. The adjoining kitchen has a French country feel, with cream-colored woodwork, lighter wide-plank hardwood floors, coffered ceilings, and an enormous black granite island. High-end appliances include a six-burner Viking stove, glass Traulsen refrigerator, and Bosch dishwasher and convection oven. The far end of the kitchen serves as a family room alongside a fieldstone fireplace that contains its own small window. A vast adjoining pantry offers plentiful storage. Casual dining space sits within a glass bay, with unobstructed views of open pasture. The conservatory with a glass ceiling and bluestone floor provides another entertaining space. On the second floor, the master suite has an arched ceiling, intricately carved antique marble fireplace, built-in entertainment center, and French doors to a private balcony. Two elegant en suite bathrooms include a freestanding oval tub, dressing table with built-ins, vanity area/shaving station, and large open shower. A dressing room, linen room, cedar closet, office, and multi-purpose room complete the second floor. Four bedrooms and two additional baths on the third floor, as well as a stone guest house, make this property ideal for a large or multi-generational family. Outdoor entertaining spaces include multiple bluestone patios, both covered and uncovered; grassy terraces, and an oval swimming pool. Mature trees and landscaping contribute to the restful feel of the domestic portion of this property. Built in 1795, the traditional Pennsylvania fieldstone bank barn retains its charm yet has been updated to equip the estate for competitive equine training, fox hunting, or pleasure riding. This first-rate facility includes an outdoor sand dressage ring, turnout sheds, a 13-stall barn, a finished tack room, a heated wash stall, and a groom’s apartment. A large hay shed and tool building stand nearby. Located in the award-winning Great Valley school district and near the Route 30 and Route 1 corridors, Delchester Farm is perfectly suited for the buyer in search of understated elegance in the Radnor Hunt countryside. While the majority of the property is under conservancy, one sub-division is possible. The barn and outbuildings, if leased, offer significant income – making Delchester Farm a wise investment.

526 College Ave, Haverford, PA 19041
Solidly built from the finest materials, this gracious Haverford home welcomes the family that values fine craftsmanship. Original owner, Hugh McIlvain, a hardwood lumber merchant and philanthropist, oversaw all details when this house was built in 1921, from selecting the mahogany used for the grand front staircase, to choosing the glittering Wissahickon schist that constitutes the thick walls. Two acres of lovingly tended landscape – complete with a small pond, garden plots, and seating areas – create an outdoor haven to surround this seven-bedroom home and carriage house. Mahogany doors and a true through-center hall greet the visitor, whose eye travels up to a Palladian window on the landing. French doors lead into the large living room with its oak floors, deep sills, sub-floor firewood storage, and fireplace with mahogany mantel. Across the hall is a dining room with built-in corner cabinets, wainscoting, and a brick fireplace surrounded by dental molding. Also off the entry hall is a library with built-in bookcases, a fireplace with original millwork, and a wide window seat. A butlers pantry with handsome kitchen dressers connects the dining room to the functional kitchen, with its brick chimney and generous pass-through to a bright breakfast room and exposed schist arch. Two powder rooms and plentiful closets with solid, snug-fitting doors and original hardware complete the first floor. The second-floor master bedroom has a peaceful windowed seating area, four large closets, a fireplace with decorative mantel, and an attached bath. Also accessed from the second-floor hall: a princess suite with bath, a third well-scaled bedroom, and a hall bath with original hexagonal floor tile. Set apart, next to an enclosed back staircase, is a charming small study or bedroom with a marble fireplace. Attached is a sleeping porch with beadboard and attractive, horizontally-hinged windows on three exposures. The third floor features three spacious bedrooms with substantial baseboards, garret ceilings, and treetop views as well as a large hall bath. Two additional bonus rooms – one with double cedar closets – could be used as den, billiards, or office spaces. Outdoor features of the home include a covered open-air porch with original O.W. Ketcham Old Dutch terra cotta tiles and a wooden deck. The original window sills are Indiana limestone and the gutters and downspouts are aluminum. The nearby carriage house offers space for five cars and garden equipment. Above the garage are three+ bedrooms, two baths, and a rustic kitchen. A recent inspector called 526 College Avenue the most solidly built house he had seen in his long career.
