2 HARTMAN RUN

Some homes give you a place to live. Others give you a story. Tucked away in a breathtaking, park-like setting in Charlestown Township, 2 Hartman Run Drive offers the opportunity to own a piece of Chester County history dating back to the late 1700s. Surrounded by mature trees, beautiful lawns, wooded views, a peaceful stream and two walking trails, this is a home for the buyer looking for something truly different. If UNIQUE is on your list of MUST HAVES, this may be the one. One of just four homes sharing 5.4 acres of gorgeous grounds, this property feels like a private escape where nature is quite literally outside your door. Walk the trails. Follow the stream. Sit beneath the trees. Enjoy your morning coffee surrounded by woods and watch the landscape change with every season. And then there is the house itself. Enter from the front or rear and discover a home that doesn't try to erase its history--it embraces it. The lower level welcomes you with a cozy family room centered around a brick fireplace. Make it your favorite place to unwind, create a comfortable home office or turn it into a quiet reading retreat. A convenient mudroom and large utility room with plenty of storage complete this level, while direct access to the beautiful patio brings the outdoors right into your everyday living. Head upstairs and this home continues to surprise you. The kitchen is ready for your ideas, your style and your culinary skills. Nearby is a room traditionally used for dining--but I see possibilities. With an abundance of windows filling the space with natural sunlight and beautiful views just outside, imagine an art studio here. An easel, a canvas and nature as your inspiration. Prefer a traditional dining room? Set the table and make it exactly that. The living room is filled with the kind of character you simply can't order from a builder. Beautiful wide-width barn flooring adds warmth and personality, while access to the front patio creates yet another connection between the home and its incredible surroundings. A full bath completes this level. Continue upstairs to find a bedroom, a quaint sitting room and another full bath. Then head to the upper level, where two former rooms have been combined to create one large bedroom featuring hardwood floors and plenty of space to make it your own.
Throughout the home you'll find reminders that this house has been standing for more than two centuries, including original charm and wonderful period details such as its door hardware. Yet historic character doesn't mean giving up today's conveniences--this home also offers propane heat and central air. Outside may be where you fall in love. The mature trees. The expansive lawn. The stream. Two walking trails. Wooded views. Patios for relaxing outdoors. Plenty of off-street parking. It's peaceful, beautiful and anything but cookie-cutter. And here's another bonus: you get to enjoy this incredible setting without taking on all of the maintenance yourself. The monthly HOA fee is just $63.13 and includes water, sewer, snow removal and maintenance of the lawn areas. Located in Charlestown Township and the Great Valley School District, 2 Hartman Run Drive gives you the feeling of being tucked away in nature while remaining convenient to everyday necessities, major routes and Paoli Train Station. This isn't a home for someone looking for ordinary. It's for someone who appreciates original character over cookie-cutter finishes. Someone who wants mature trees instead of newly planted landscaping. Someone who would rather walk along a stream than a sidewalk. Someone who sees the beauty in a home that has a story. More than two centuries have passed since this home's story began.
Now it's waiting for someone to write its next chapter. Come see this beautiful home , experience the setting for yourself and become part of its history.
