Offered to the market for the first time in over 90 years, this expansive 200+ acre farm spans the width of Providence to Plumsock Roads in scenic Willistown Township, Chester County. Long spans of pastures, hillsides and a perimeter of centennial trees create views that are paused only by five charming residences, two barns, stream, and spring house. Yarnell Run, the stream that widens to a picturesque pond before continuing its path to join Okehocking, remains much as it was when families first settled here in the late 1600’s. The sun rises on the Providence road exposure and sets towards an idyllic four bedroom cottage on Plumsock. The expanse of land provides its own sanctuary and naturally embedded seclusion but, beyond act 319, no conservation easement exists for the 209 acres. Endless views and opportunities exist for this heart of Willistown offering. No access, even if accompanied by realtor without appointment.
