This is a property designed for those who seek the quiet dignity of a rural retreat without sacrificing the refinements of modern life. It is where the rhythmic pace of the seasons meets the sophisticated pulse of the Main Line. Glendalough is more than a residence; it is a legacy. It is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Willistown's rural splendor that balances the heritage of the past with the luxury of the present. Life at Glendalough is defined by its serene, pastoral character. As a hobby farm, the property offers more than just acreage; it offers a lifestyle of curated agricultural hobbyism. Whether your passion is equestrian pursuits, artisanal gardening, or simply the stewardship of historic Pennsylvania land, Glendalough provides the infrastructure and the atmosphere to indulge those desires. Located within minutes of the prestigious Radnor Hunt Club, the estate is situated in the heart of horse country, where a network of trails and a deep-seated tradition of fox hunting and trail riding still thrive. While the setting feels worlds away from the city, Glendalough is ''conveniently located'' in every sense. It offers a rare paradox: the ability to check on your pastures in the morning and be in a boardroom or a world-class restaurant by noon. Minutes from regional rail and Amtrak service, providing a seamless commute to Philadelphia or New York. For international travel, Philadelphia International Airport is easily accessible. Ideal for the equestrian, the property includes a 6-stall barn with a tack room and a wash room. The second floor features a bright, rustic loft with potential for conversion into a small guest apartment or staff quarters. Read Less
