Description

Many people have dreamt of converting a barn into a spectacularly open residence whose authenticity is evident from the moment you see it. The Barn at Moore Road is an iconic image seen by so many people as they trek to Marsh Creek State Park just a hop away from this magnificent "Stone Gable Ender." For you and your Barn Conversion, the park is yours to enjoy with a 5 minute bike ride or a quick run to your kayaking, SUP, or trail hiking oasis. The State park is moments from your door. Backing to a bucolic stream, your lot is spacious and has a delightful tree-lined buffer from where most of your windows to nature will be. The gently sloping ground affords privacy and distance from any neighbors. Perced for an inground system and containing the backup absorption area, you will be shovel-ready to build your dream in 1/10th of the time it might take if the project weren't as ready as it is. Magnificent work on the recent pointing both inside and out is so much of the heavy lifting out of the way. Create your own destiny here in this stunning 19th-century building with an exposure facing southeast, ideal for the Wall of Windows you envision for the forebay of this amazing oak timber framed blank canvas. With straight and correct purlins, three timber framed bents, a classic hay loft ladder, and exceptional gable end vertical vents (rare for this part of Chester County) this one is the right size for your big dream. Don't miss the classic lightning rods from a bygone era and the super rare lightning rod balls up top. Downingtown School District, and the Elementary is a stone's throw at Shamona Creek. Fantastic back-door commuting off the main highways is a blessing and your proximity to restaurants, super markets etc etc is just super.
