Description

Set quietly on over 1.3+ lush acres in the heart of Newtown Square, “The Edgar House” stands as a rare piece of American history you can actually live in. Originally built in 1840 and expanded again in 1910 and 2008, this Federal-style home carries the strength and craftsmanship of another era, with thick stone walls, real wood floors, detailed crown moldings, and multiple fireplaces that give it a warm, grounded feel the moment you step inside. It’s a big house, nearly 9,000 square feet across three full stories plus a finished basement, offering 6 bedrooms, 8 bathrooms, and a layout that simply makes sense whether you are raising a family, running a business, or creating something of your own. There is character here you cannot replicate, from the front and back staircases to a rare interior smoke room that nods to the home’s past, balanced with practical upgrades like an updated shingle roof and a Viking gas appliance package in the kitchen. The great room layout opens things up for everyday living and entertaining, while two En-Suite primary bedrooms provide comfort and flexibility. Outside, a 1,600-plus square foot wraparound deck and patio overlook mature landscaping, creating a setting that feels private, usable, and built for gathering. The circular driveway and detached three-car climate-controlled garage give the property both presence and function, while a separate office space opens the door for a home-based business or creative use. There is even room to expand, whether that means adding onto the home or building a second structure. This is not just a home; It’s a local landmark with real substance behind it. For the buyer who sees opportunity or for the buyer who owns a business, this property offers more than just space. It offers the chance to own something meaningful, improve it, personalize it, and build long-term equity in one of Delaware County’s most respected locations.
