Welcome to Reculver Farm -- A Rare Historic 14+ Acre Estate in West Chester. Nestled at the end of a scenic, tree-lined driveway, Reculver Farm is a breathtaking 14+ acre estate that seamlessly blends centuries-old charm with modern-day comfort. Steeped in history dating back to the 1700s, this remarkable property offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of Chester County heritage while enjoying thoughtfully updated living, all just minutes from vibrant downtown West Chester. This expansive property features a prestigious main house, separate guest cottage, and multiple outbuildings. Outdoors, the land offers endless possibilities: a four-stall barn and riding ring for horse enthusiasts, rolling pastures and paddocks for those who dream of a hobby farm, and a massive pole barn/garage ideal for car collectors, equipment storage, or creative workshop space. Whether your passion is horses, cars, gardening, or simply privacy, the grounds provide unmatched flexibility. A separate wing of the main home, accessible from inside or by its own private entrance, offers a four-room office with a half bath--perfect for an in-law or au pair quarters, studio, or work-from-home retreat. At the heart of the estate is the beautifully expanded 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath main residence spanning three levels. Highlights include a radiant-heated sunroom with full bath, a recently renovated brick patio, and a heated in-ground pool overlooking the scenic pastures. Just off the sunroom, the expansive eat-in kitchen by Sugarbridge Kitchens showcases soapstone countertops, a matching oversized island, farmhouse and prep sinks, Thermador appliances, a warming drawer, butler's pantry, and radiant heated floors. The original portion of the home retains its timeless character with wide plank floors, deep windowsills, fireplaces, and classic millwork throughout the formal living room, study, and dining room. The second level features a luxurious primary suite with fireplace, walk-in closet, and spa-like bath with radiant floors and dual vanity, plus four additional bedrooms, two hall baths, and laundry. The third level provides four more generous rooms, ensuring abundant living space. Also nestled on the grounds is a beautifully appointed three-bedroom, one-bath guest cottage, ideal for hosting family, guests, or generating rental income. This inviting home features a cozy living room with fireplace, eat-in kitchen, main-level bedroom and bath, two upstairs bedrooms, and a private deck overlooking the pastures. For the equestrian, the property includes a classic barn with stalls, tack room, feed area, hot water, and a separate hay barn, complemented by fenced paddocks and riding ring. Additional features include a run-in shed and spacious pole barn/garage. Whether working from home, watching sunsets, walking along the creek, caring for horses, or showcasing a car collection, Reculver Farm offers rare tranquility just minutes from West Chester, Unionville, and Kennett Square.
