Farmhouse 45


4 bay-er on the hill side. New! houses above, and totally out of scale for what is needed or responsible. Twin chimneys and screen porch really flesh out the look here. Love the simple white exterior and cedar roof.

Farmhouse 44


Added over time 5 bay farmhouse, set high on a hill and still hard to find. Pent roof over the first floor breaks up the elevation. Farmer likely owned the left half, rented out the right portion.

Farmhouse 43


Not a farmhouse, but a barn to the last house. What a specimen, tapered columns, so Chesco, banked barn, doors, great windows. Lovely lawn, cedar roof, and stone arch.
Again, wow.

Farmhouse 42


I can't believe where I found this house, and if you can find it also, then you have some great skill, my friend. This is a prototype of the house I have designed for the Hand Household. 5 bays and 2 and a half stories, simple, gabled, and vernacular. Excellent.

Farmhouse 41


Great abandoned farmhouse behind several developments in the Eagle/Byers area. Would love to have this site and view!! Simply amazing, just drove down a dirt driveway and found it. Springhouse or summer kitchen is on the left. Fun!

Farmhouse 40


Great colors and shutters on this little gem, right next to number 39 and across the street from 38.

Farmhouse 39


This little three bay, two and half story house is great. The siding, the fake quoins (hidden by the trees), brackets, simple color, and metal roof just scream Chester County. Unfortunately, these trees do not loose their leaves and this might be the best pic I can get, given my pace of photographing the county. Still want to come back and revisit this place.
