Around 1850 a stone infill structure was constructed between the two buildings and it was used as a post office until the early twentieth century...Previously featured on "Chester County Day "and "Christmas in Marshallton " this historic twin is loaded with charm and character. This serpentine Federal- Style stone building was built in 1809 and faces due East, unlike other homes on Strasburg Road that face North and South. It is known as the "Shopkeepers House". The North side was originally a store. Around 1850 a stone infill structure was constructed between the two buildings and it was used as a post office until the early twentieth century when the entire building was converted to residential use. There is an old road that passes by this house that leads to the Bradford Friends Meeting House and Cemetery. This wonderful home has six fireplaces, one walk-in in the kitchen with the original crane. The fireplaces are all in working condition There are three bedrooms and one half bath on the second floor. The walk up attic is unfinished but could be a fantastic master suite if finished. The first floor is graced by a spacious front hallway with the living room with bookcases and fireplace to your right and the dining room to your left. The plaster walls curve at the windows with deep window sills. The windows have not been replaced and still have the wavy glass in the panes. The kitchen has a large square island with granite countertop across from the walk in fireplace. The wood floors are absolutely beautiful with a patina that only a hundred years can bring. There is a study off of the front hall with a full bath that can be used for a fourth bedroom and a small bar area that could be converted into a walk-in closet. The bar room has electric heat. There is a partial basement with laundry area and a brand new water heater. A rear deck overlooks the private back yard. Parking is to the South side of the home. There is an old garage with the south bay for the use of 565 Northbrook Rd. Don't miss this opportunity to live in the charming town of Marshallton within walking distance to the Marshallton Inn and the Four Dogs Tavern. Square footage is from public records, home may have slightly less square footage than stated. Access to the barn has always be granted to neighbors.
