Welcome to 238 Brown Street, a truly one-of-a-kind 1812 historic home offering remarkable flexibility, timeless character, and a story all its own. Long rumored to have once served as the Springville Inn and Stagecoach Stop, this expansive property preserves the craftsmanship and charm of a bygone era while incorporating the modern updates, like total temperature control today’s homeowners appreciate. The current owner has thoughtfully upgraded the home to make maintaining and stewarding this incredible property easier. Highlights include 14 mini-split units and a propane heating system which keep the whole home temperature controlled throughout the year, an on-demand hot water heater, 3 keyless entries, and a complete reimagining of the lower level into a versatile living space. With multiple living areas, three separate entrances, 5-6 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, a finished attic, a reimagined lower level with 3 handmade wood doors created from trees on the property, uncharacteristically high ceilings for an 1812 home, and a detached multi-car garage with 4 additional off-street parking spaces, the home offers outstanding flexibility. The layout can function as one large single-family residence or provide private spaces ideal for multigenerational living, guest quarters, work-from-home space, studio use, or other creative arrangements. The lower level has been completely revamped into one of the property’s most useful and versatile spaces. With interior access or a private entrance, it boasts a full bath, kitchenette area, second stone fireplace, and abundant finished living space. It offers exceptional potential as a private retreat, guest space, teen suite, hobby area, studio, or separate living quarters. For investors or those seeking multi-family living, many areas can be sectioned off and incorporated into either side of the home. This truly unique property is ready for its next steward, whether someone looking to call it home or seeking a versatile property with multi-family potential.

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.

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.
