Listing description

Set on 5 private acres in beautiful Chester Springs, this distinctive one-floor ranch offers the space, privacy, and lifestyle that are increasingly hard to find—a barn with room for the horses, fenced pastures, an in-ground pool, and a backyard oasis designed for both everyday living and entertaining. And with approximately 600 acres of preserved land at Bryn Coed Farms just down the road, miles of wonderful trails for hiking and horseback riding are practically at your doorstep. Thoughtfully designed for convenient one-floor living, the home offers approximately 3,360 square feet with 4 bedrooms and 4 full bathrooms on the main level. A welcoming foyer opens to spacious living areas filled with natural light. The living room features hardwood flooring, crown molding, expansive backyard views, and a wood-burning fireplace, while the adjoining dining room offers another warm gathering space with varied-width hardwood floors and a second brick wood-burning fireplace. An extensive wet bar nearby adds to the home’s entertaining appeal. At the heart of the home is the updated kitchen, featuring ceramic tile flooring, a center island with breakfast bar, double self-cleaning ovens, microwave, stainless steel refrigerator, pantry, and nearby laundry area. French doors lead directly outside, creating an effortless connection between the interior living spaces and the pool and expansive paver patio. The primary suite is privately positioned on one side of the home and includes three closets, sliding doors to the patio and pool, and an updated ensuite bath. On the opposite side of the home are three additional generously sized bedrooms, including a princess suite with its own private full bathroom, offering wonderful flexibility for family or overnight guests. An additional full bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms, while the fourth full bathroom is thoughtfully positioned with both interior and direct poolside access—an incredibly convenient feature for summer entertaining and days spent by the pool. The mostly finished basement expands the living space even further with built-in shelving, abundant storage, dedicated areas for a workbench and wine rack, and an existing radon reduction system. Outside is where this property truly becomes something special. The in-ground pool and expansive paver patio create a private backyard oasis surrounded by mature landscaping and trees. Beyond the pool, the property opens to fenced pastures and a 6-stall barn with workshop space, newer roof and siding, run-in shed, and horse alley access between neighboring properties. A generously sized fenced garden provides even more opportunity for gardening, flowers, or homegrown vegetables. Recent improvements include an updated primary bath (2023), house roof (2021), and barn roof and siding (2025). A driveway with a convenient turnaround loop near the garage and stable provides easy access and ample parking. Located in the Owen J. Roberts School District, this special Chester Springs property offers the feeling of a private country retreat while remaining convenient to shopping, dining, commuter routes, and nearby corporate centers. Whether your perfect day includes horses in the pasture, a hike on the trails, an afternoon by the pool, or simply enjoying the peace and quiet of five beautiful acres, 954 Saint Matthews Road offers a lifestyle that is difficult to replicate.

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.
