Farmhouse/National Folk, Dwelling w/Separate Living Area

Set on just over 4 scenic acres in sought-after Glen Mills, 1554 Meadow Lane is a distinctive 1766 stone farmhouse that beautifully blends historic character with modern comfort. Originally part of William Penn’s “First Purchasers” land grant (1681) and once part of a historically significant dairy farm operation, this exceptional property offers a rare combination of history, usable land, space, and flexibility—qualities that are increasingly difficult to find in today’s market. Thoughtfully expanded through 2 additions (circa 1970 and 2001), the home now offers 3,378 square feet with a functional and versatile layout. The 5-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence showcases original plank flooring, stone walls, and 3 fireplaces, seamlessly complemented by thoughtful updates including a renovated main kitchen, new smart appliances, a 3-zone mini-split system, PEX plumbing, a new electrical panel, and a smart hybrid heat pump water heater. The private 2-story in-law addition, complete with its own entrances, second full kitchen, fireplace, spacious bedroom with an en-suite powder room, and generous living area, provides exceptional flexibility for multigenerational living, extended family, guests, an au pair suite, or a private home office. Beyond the home, the land is what truly sets this property apart. Open meadows, mature trees, apple and pear trees, edible berries, and wooded walking trails create an exceptional setting for gardening, hobby farming, recreation, outdoor entertaining, or simply enjoying the peace and natural beauty of the property. Zoned R-1 Agricultural, the property offers opportunities for horses, chickens, and other agricultural uses. Together, the open, usable acreage and mature woodland provide a rare balance of recreation, space, and a sense of privacy. A small stream and multiple natural springs enhance the wooded portion of the property, supporting a thriving ecosystem that is home to 100+ documented bird species, along with deer, foxes, and other native wildlife. A rare spring-fed water system has reliably supplied the home for 250+ years, offering a remarkable connection to the property’s history and natural resources. An oversized 2-car garage with electric provides abundant space for vehicles, equipment, hobbies, or workshop use. With potential for future subdivision (buyer to verify), the property offers both immediate lifestyle appeal and long-term flexibility. Located in the award-winning Rose Tree Media School District, just minutes from Ridley Creek State Park, Media, West Chester, and Newtown Square, and approximately 30 minutes from Philadelphia and Wilmington, this one-of-a-kind property offers the rare opportunity to enjoy historic charm, modern conveniences, and an exceptional natural setting. Whether you’re seeking a historic home, space for extended family, room to garden or keep animals, or simply a peaceful retreat with deep roots and lasting character, 1554 Meadow Lane offers a lifestyle that’s increasingly difficult to find.
