Description
Oh, the charm of 73 W. Rose Valley Road! This historic 3-bedroom Stone Mill house was transformed by William Price. Price founded Rose Valley in 1901, and built/redesigned these residences for the Mill workers after the Civil War. According to an unidentified article, probably written c.1904, they "have been turned into quaint and picturesque little homes" for the artisans and their families. The houses consisted of three twin houses on the south side of Rose Valley Road and a row block which had six units in a continuous row. Built with 18-inch stone walls, the features of 73 W Rose Valley Road include original interior mill work and hardware, deep window casings, some original windows (note the swirls in the hand-blown glass), unusually high ceilings, exposed beams, wood oak and Pumpkin Pine floors throughout, a small fireplace in the Living/Dining Room, a Kitchen with door to a lovely courtyard with terraced stone gardens and steps up to each level. There is a built-in shed for garden tools and a built-in whole home system automatic generator by Honeywell. The Second Floor has 2 bedrooms and a full bath with an antique claw foot tub. The Third Floor is an entire bedroom with 1/2 bathroom and extra closet space. The Basement is functional. Knob & tube remediation in 2023. Updated/or new utilities. The Borough of Rose Valley owns and maintains the parking lot across the street for you and your guests. For nature lovers, Maurice Saul Wildlife Sanctuary next to the “Old Mill†is a quarter of a mile away. The Borough of Rose Valley provides a large network of maintained walking trails through a forest path that wind around the Borough. In addition is Chadwick Wildlife Preserve. Also nearby is The School of Rose Valley, Hedgerow Theater (the oldest repertory theater in the country) offering presentations and classes, the Rose Valley Museum, the private Rose Valley Pool and Tennis club, Media’s renowned restaurants and shops, along with the Moylan-Rose Valley train station. The Wallingford train station, up Possum Hollow Road, is about a mile away. Here you will find a small post office, public library, restaurant, convenience store and Furness Park. This historic Artisan’s Mill house offers a unique green and wooded preserved community of yesteryear with the necessities of today. The Philadelphia National airport is an easy twenty minute drive!
