Welcome to Meeting House Farm, a scenic gentleman’s farm set on approximately 7.35 serene acres in Exeter Township School District offering a rare blend of historic character, thoughtful updates, and versatile multi use space. Believed to date to the late 1700s, this stone and stucco residence reflects a mix of preserved architectural detail and modern comfort in a setting that invites a quieter, more intentional way of living. Inside, the home features exposed beams, original woodwork, solid maple window sills, and multiple fireplaces that have been inspected during current ownership. A skylight lit hallway leads to a spacious kitchen designed for both everyday living and entertaining offering a substantial center island with secondary vegetable sink, granite countertops, extensive cabinetry, stainless appliances including double wall ovens and a propane cooktop, a beverage refrigerator, and a light filled breakfast area with oversized windows and doors opening to the brick patio and pool setting. The main level offers a variety of formal and casual living areas including a living room with fireplace, dining space, den previously believed to have functioned as a smokehouse, a private office featuring solid wood built in bookshelves, and additional flexible use rooms suitable for hobbies or creative pursuits. The finished attic has been adapted as an office space complete with built in cabinetry and two skylights providing natural light. Outbuildings enhance the property's flexibility and may appeal to those interested in equestrian or hobby farm pursuits with features that include fenced pasture areas, a sand based riding ring, run in areas, and a circa 1840 bank barn with four stalls, tack room, and updated upper level flooring. A two story wagon barn with large double doors may offer storage, workshop, or studio potential. Additional accessory structures include a pool house and a well house with electric service and copper roof. For peace of mind, this home also includes a propane powered back-up generator. Above the heated three car garage, a finished apartment offers vaulted ceilings, kitchenette, full bath, two Murphy beds, and access to sauna and outdoor shower suitable for guests, extended living arrangements, or other permitted uses. Outdoor living includes a saltwater Gunite pool with stone waterfall feature surrounded by an expansive brick patio ideal for relaxing or entertaining. Beyond the home, the acreage opens into peaceful tree lined spaces for gardening, animals, recreation, or simply enjoying open space and fresh air, with Monocacy Creek running along the tree line of the property. Sustainability and nature are at the heart of the grounds, which boast a productive organic garden and apple, pear, and peach trees. Whether your vision includes hobby farming, creative workspace, or a private country retreat, the grounds and layout may accommodate a variety of lifestyle needs. A rare opportunity to own a historic property offering character, versatility, and a peaceful setting in Birdsboro.
