Downstairs you will find a partially finished basement ready for fun and also tons of storage. The home is located in Charlestown Twp which provides and incredible quality of life. Charlestown has preserved almost 40% of the township as open space to protect its rural make up while being delicately tucked between both Malvern & Phoenixville. The property is in walking distance to Brightside farm park, moments from dining and entertainment, all while being in the shadows of major employers, commuting routes, and the Great Valley School System. 3058 Blackberry Lane is part of a special Pocono-like environment which offers an unusual opportunity to enjoy nature and privacy in Charlestown Township while being surrounded by congested housing in neighboring communities. Walking out the front door, less than 1,000 feet away, is an entrance to the Horseshoe Trail (The Horse-Shoe Trail is a 140-mile multi use trail which originates in Valley Forge National Park and Terminates in the Appalachian Trail National Park just north of Harrisburg, PA). The neighborhood has a walking opportunity that is referred to by the neighbors as the âLoopâ. Start out on Blackberry and head up the forested Sidley Hill Road to Indian Point, where you see gorgeous mountain like views in the distance. Turn right onto Yellow Springs Road to enjoy a spectacular view with wide open sky. Then a right turn on Hollow, you walk along the bucolic road where million-dollar gentleman farms have fields filled with horses. On the right side about ½ mile down,.. walk past the former Auchincloss Farm where a young Jackie Kennedy rode on summer visits. Then turn right again and head back up the deeply wooded Blackberry Lane for an approximate 3-mile walk. The Beautiful Brightside Trail, which is a spectacular place to go for a sunset walk is less than a mile away. There you will see beautiful open sky and nature in a contemplative environment. A little bit beyond that is the Charlestown Community Garden, where plots can be rented for 25.00 a year and you can grow your own food and meet neighbors from all over the world. This house is less than 5 minutes to each of the excellent Great Valley Schools, approximately 3 miles to The Great Valley Corporate Center and the entrance to the turnpike for easy access to NYC. Marsh Creek State Park is 20 minutes away and that is a great place to go sailing, canoeing or kayaking. The Chester Valley Trail is 3 miles away and the Schuylkill River Trail along the water is only 6 miles away. So much of living here is about this special environment. Most neighbors are committed to the unique character of the neighborhood and stay for years. Each season is spectacular.
