An East Bradford Retreat

If you are looking for an exceptional home that’s close to West Chester, yet offers privacy and tranquility, your search ends here with a unique opportunity to become the next owner of this amazing home in East Bradford Township, Chester County PA.


Built in 1998, this beautiful 5 bedroom/4 bathroom home has been cared for by only two families, and has had many updates and enhancements over the years. 


The property boasts a large 32,000 gallon in-ground heated saltwater pool and spa, along with a large spring-fed pond full of koi and bass, and a separate Lancaster County Post & Beam built 2,200 sq ft barn with lower level workshop!


Situated on the best lot (and most historical – with a springhouse and pond that date back to the Civil War era) in the desirable Foulkes Manor neighborhood, this home is close to everything (5-minutes to downtown West Chester), yet feels secluded and private.  Truly the best of both worlds!


This home is not your typical neighborhood house, and for the family looking for an extremely livable home with the ability to have a separate, on-property studio or office, this home offers all kinds of possibilities.


This house has been immaculately kept and maintained. A happy home just waiting for its new owners.
