Time to Buy a Piece of History in West Chester


SPOTLIGHT LISTING: Historic West Chester Estate

Own a piece of history—and drama—at Clocktower Farm, a six-plus acre property in West Chester. The estate actually features a restored clocktower, built at the end of the 19th-century by Sydney Logan, a descendant of James Logan (of Logan Square fame). Logan, was apparently a bit of a dilatant, desperate to be recognized as a romantic poet, and while he never achieved success as a literary artist, he did succeed in designing a fantastic manor home, including the five-story stone clocktower with a terra cotta roof. Inside you’ll find 10-foot ceilings, fireplaces with artistically crafted mantelpieces, and high-quality millwork throughout. The grounds feature a fenced salt swimming pool, barn with stalls and separate shop structure.
