These noble structures are believed to date to the first half of the 19th century & possess late Federal & early Greek Revival features; set on 2.1 acres of lush trees, shrubs & lawns. The preservation of the Miller's House, which is architecturally & historically significant to Chester County's history, is secured by an easement held by the National Trust for Historic Preservation. The new owner will agree to maintain certain exterior features of the House, outbuildings & landscape in a good & sound condition. The property is also on the List of Homes of Historic Value with West Pikeland Township & is located in the Village Preservation District 2. The Miller's house is approximately 3,040sf with 4 Brs and 1.5 Baths. New owner will assume the time & expense of major restoration but will reap the rewards of being a curator of irreplaceable cultural heritage.
