Description
Welcome to 3098 Merlin Road, a truly one-of-a-kind 200-year-old, historically registered stone farmhouse in the heart of sought-after Charlestown Township. Offering nearly 4,400 square feet of living space, this home blends historic character with timeless craftsmanship that simply can’t be replicated today. To the side of the residence, you’ll find a detached 3-car stone garage boasting over 1,200 square feet of open space that could be used for entertainment, a creative studio, or workspace. Step inside and be transported by the unbelievable details and artistry throughout—from the thick stone walls to the woodwork and finishes that speak to centuries of careful stewardship. With four spacious bedrooms and a separate living space in the addition, this home offers both history and comfort, all set against the backdrop of rolling Chester Springs countryside. The grounds are every bit as impressive as the home itself. Nestled on 6+ peaceful acres, you’ll enjoy a private spring-fed pond abundant with fish, a small stream winding along the property, and a fully functioning historic well house—rare reminders of a simpler time. The views here are truly spectacular, and while St. Peter’s Church rests just over the hill, the sound of its chimes in the evenings carries across the landscape, adding a uniquely peaceful touch to the setting. This property offers a lifestyle that combines privacy, tranquility, and natural beauty, yet it’s only minutes from major routes, dining, shops, schools, and everything you could possibly need. Whether you envision it as a forever home, a retreat from the bustle, or simply a chance to own a slice of Chester County history, 3098 Merlin Road is a rare offering.
