This canvas is ready for your ideas - family compound, farmette w/ animals, fields of flowers or holisitic/ organic self sustaining gardening - maybe start a farmstand! Very desirable location has quiet privacy in the country, but lets you get everywhere quickly. Back in 1920, this homestead was started by the Woodward family, who owned a Hat Shoppe in Phila. Calm in the country- yet mins. to the R5 train in Paoli! Seller has started engineering work for potential subdivision- See attached Plot Plans in documents. Excellent location close to the Main Line, Paoli Hospital & Train, Hip & Happening Phoenixville, the turnpike, Rts. 202 & 422.
