Property Description

John Ross came to America @ 1710 to avoid the war. After teaching for several years, he bought a large tract of land (part of the Penn land grant) and built a two story stone” cottage” circa 1720 and named it Rosscommon. In @ 1781 a large addition was added. In the past it has been a home, a post office, tavern and stopover for travelers coming from points north and south. Now on 3 acres, history can be relived with the original stone horse mounting block in the front yard and the masonry double out house, that has been turned into a picturesque garden shed, in the side yard. Numerous historical features such as the
large walk in cooking fireplace with bread oven in the kitchen, deep window sills, numerous doors with strap hinges and period locks and handles and the original wood floors will captivate the historic house lover. Side door from the porch enters to the eat in kitchen— the site over the years of many gatherings both large and small. Large dining room features original wood floors and large windows for lots of light. The oversized living room has a full wall of built ins, chair rail and a woodstove with the historic warming cupboards along the chimney. First floor office/den is a space that has had multiple functions over the years and is ready for its new purpose. Powder room/laundry room off the kitchen, is easy to access
for your domestic chores. Second floor has the main stairway to the front of the house and the back stairs, by the kitchen, to the rooms that the owner’s family occupied during colonial times. At the front of the house are 3 generous sized bedrooms that have easy access to the 2 bathrooms. The primary bedroom has two closets and all the bedrooms have the original wood floors. The back two bedrooms are carpeted and have access to one of the bathrooms. Recent plaster work in those two rooms show how beautifully the original plaster walls in the house can be redone. Additional features are walk up attics, a 5 year old roof, windows that were replaced 15 to 18 years ago and the efficiency of natural gas in both the hot water baseboard heat and the hot water heater. The three level acres is ready for lots of uses and the one car oversized garage and 14’x42” shed is already in place for your storage needs. Come see this piece of Chester County history that is waiting for its next chapter to be written! NOTE please use caution on the outdoor stairs and decking!
