Welcome to Glendalough, a truly special “gentleman’s farm” where peace, privacy, and nature converge. Accessed via a long, private driveway, this 18-acre estate is a haven for outdoorsmen, nature lovers, and those seeking a quiet rural retreat. Protected by the Willistown Conservancy Trust and featuring two serene ponds, the grounds offer a landscape defined by natural light and memorable sunsets. This stone colonial has been lovingly maintained, showcasing a classic stone exterior and a cedar roof, all framed by mature, lush landscaping. Inside, you’ll find a home of understated elegance. MAIN LEVEL A gracious foyer leads to fireside living with a large picture window framing pastoral views. The formal dining room features charming built-ins, flowing into a large, updated kitchen and a generous breakfast room. The family room addition is striking, boasting high ceilings, a stone fireplace, and expansive windows that offer what may be the most spectacular views in Willistown Township. Multiple doors lead to a patio and deck overlooking the pool and remarkable views. SECOND LEVEL Features five spacious bedrooms and four baths. The primary suite is a private retreat with its own fireplace, ample closet space, and attached bath. The additional bedrooms offer a flexible layout, perfect for family or guests. ART STUDIO Creative spirits will be inspired by the separate, dedicated art studio, boasting high ceilings, a basement, fireplace, and full bathroom. Bathed in natural light and tucked away from the main house, it provides the perfect quietude for any artistic pursuit. Or, with all its amenities, this could be easily converted into a guest home! Nestled within the rolling, protected landscapes of Willistown Township, this special property represents the pinnacle of the Chester County “gentleman’s farm.” This is a property designed for those who seek the quiet dignity of a rural retreat without sacrificing the refinements of modern life. It is where the rhythmic pace of the seasons meets the sophisticated pulse of the Main Line. Glendalough is more than a residence; it is a legacy. It is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Willistown’s rural splendor that balances the heritage of the past with the luxury of the present. Life at Glendalough is defined by its serene, pastoral character. As a hobby farm, the property offers more than just acreage; it offers a lifestyle of curated agricultural hobbyism. Whether your passion is equestrian pursuits, artisanal gardening, or simply the stewardship of historic Pennsylvania land, Glendalough provides the infrastructure and the atmosphere to indulge those desires. Located within minutes of the prestigious Radnor Hunt Club, the estate is situated in the heart of horse country, where a network of trails and a deep-seated tradition of fox hunting and trail riding still thrive. While the setting feels worlds away from the city, Glendalough is “conveniently located” in every sense. It offers a rare paradox: the ability to check on your pastures in the morning and be in a boardroom or a world-class restaurant by noon. Minutes from regional rail and Amtrak service, providing a seamless commute to Philadelphia or New York. For international travel, Philadelphia International Airport is easily accessible. Ideal for the equestrian, the property includes a 6-stall barn with a tack room and a wash room. The second floor features a bright, rustic loft with potential for conversion into a small guest apartment or staff quarters.
