Listing description

A rare opportunity to reimagine a substantial residence in one of Berwyn’s most desirable estate settings. Situated on approximately 1.4 acres along prestigious Farm Road, 1271 Farm Road offers exceptional scale, privacy and tremendous potential in an area surrounded by impressive luxury homes. The property is in need of significant renovation and is being offered for the buyer who recognizes the value of location, size and the opportunity to create something truly special. Whether you are an investor, builder, or an owner-occupant searching for a home you can completely customize, this property provides an outstanding canvas for a high-end transformation. With approximately 6,900 square feet of living space, the existing residence offers the size and presence to support an extensive renovation and thoughtful redesign. Reconfigure the interior, introduce today's luxury finishes and amenities, and create a residence tailored to your own vision rather than paying a premium for someone else's renovation. The surrounding area is characterized by substantial luxury residences and multi-million-dollar properties, making this an especially compelling opportunity for buyers who understand the importance of location and the potential created by improving a property within an established high-end neighborhood. This is not a cosmetic renovation. The property will require significant work and is best suited for buyers prepared to undertake a comprehensive renovation. For the right buyer, however, the combination of acreage, square footage, location and surrounding property values creates an opportunity that is increasingly difficult to find in Berwyn. Bring your architect, contractor and vision. 1271 Farm Road is ready for its next chapter.

Assessment note: this home appears assessed above what its asking price implies at the county's common level ratio. The next owner may have a case for an assessment appeal worth roughly $17,764/year.

Recomputed from the county assessment ($785,340, 1998 base year) × current millage. School millage is from the latest year certified by the Pennsylvania Department of Education (2025-26); districts adopt the next year's budgets each June, and we update when the state certifies the statewide file in the fall. Portals typically reprint the recorded 2026 bill. Pennsylvania does not reassess on sale. Estimate only. Verify with Chester County before relying on it.

Taxes use NookLocal's estimate at current millage rates, not the stale figure on the MLS. The default rate is the average 30-year rate as of July 2026; insurance is estimated at 0.35% of the price per year. Below 20% down, lenders usually add mortgage insurance, which this estimate doesn't include. Estimate only; verify before relying on it.
