Galbreath house is located in the village of Ogden in Upper Chichester Township. Willard T. Galbreath purchased the property from the National Real Estate Company in December 1890. The house, built by Galbreath, is an elaborately shingled Folk Victorian. In addition to the decorative shingling across the second-story facade and western side of the house, other prominent original features include a wrap-around porch with jig-saw cut balusters; double door front entry with original Eastlake style hardware; and a right angle bay in the dining room. The house has its original windows in many of the rooms as well as interior doors with rim locks, heart pine flooring, and plaster walls. Aside from the installation of electricity and an early update to the heating system (converting from coal-fired gravity hot air to an oil-burning boiler with hot water radiators), most rooms of the house retain their original character. Renovations by a previous owner include an updated kitchen and bathrooms. The back porch was also enclosed to create a first-floor laundry and full bath. In 2008, the current owners added an architecturally sensitive family room addition, including a 9-foot ceiling, two-over-two windows, and moldings in keeping with the original trim throughout the house. Cement board sheathing on the exterior of the addition is similar in form and dimension to the original clapboard siding and blends well with the original structure. To the east of the house, sits the original Carriage House. The board and batten structure shows evidence of mortise and tenon construction and may be older than the house itself. The second story of the Carriage House was originally cantilevered, but at some point, the front lower bay was enclosed. A previous owner, Hershey Irwin, operated an orchard on the property during the mid-1900s known as Irwin’s Apple Orchard. Irwin added a lower bay with a refrigeration unit on the east side of the Carriage House and an office on the rear of the building. The cooling system has been removed, but the unit remains. During that era, the Carriage House was referred to as the “Apple House”. The orchard signpost still stands along Naaman’s Creek Road. The house sits on an approximate three-quarter-acre lot bordered by wooded open space and mature, landscaping. Inside, authentic heart pine floors, original doors, and historic trim blend seamlessly with modern conveniences, including a main-floor family room, updated kitchen, laundry, and full bath. The layout features formal parlor and dining rooms, three second-floor bedrooms—including a primary suite with an ensuite bath—and a versatile, fully finished attic retreat. Maximizing its value is a detached, two-story carriage house equipped with heat and electricity, offering the perfect flexible space for a home office, studio, or workshop.

Investor Opportunity! Rare chance to restore and transform a historic Victorian in the heart of Ridley Park. Built in 1900, this architect-owned home offers the ideal combination of historic character, major structural improvements, and exceptional upside. Lovingly owned by the same family since 1978, the home was extensively rebuilt over several decades by an architect who spared no expense preserving its history while modernizing its infrastructure. Much of the expensive work has already been completed, including reinforced subflooring, new drywall and insulation, updated electrical service with a newer main panel, central air conditioning, a new HVAC system (2017), a newer roof, new front porch, composite rear porch, kitchen renovation, basement excavation with a new concrete floor and French drain system, a rear sunroom addition, and an enclosed third-floor widow's walk. Original architectural details remain beautifully preserved, including stunning American chestnut woodwork, stained glass windows, original front and rear staircases, a Victorian fireplace surround, oversized windows, soaring ceilings, and the original carriage step. The interior is now remodel-ready, providing a blank canvas for an investor, builder, or buyer with vision to complete a truly one-of-a-kind restoration. The current layout also offers the opportunity to immediately convert the home to four bedrooms, while the expansive third floor presents the potential to add two additional bedrooms and a full bath, creating a six-bedroom residence. Whether you're looking to renovate and resell or create your dream historic home, opportunities like this are increasingly rare. Historic homes with this level of preserved craftsmanship, completed structural improvements, and renovation potential seldom come to market. Bring your vision and unlock the incredible potential of this exceptional Ridley Park Victorian.

Welcome to 2185 Franklin Avenue, a truly must see-for-yourself property! This exquisite Queen Ann Victorian is impressive with original historical characteristics and beautiful modern updates. The stately front stone staircase invites you onto the wide wrap-around porch overlooking the colorful flower bed that blooms every spring. Enter into the vestibule where you can hang your coat and leave your shoes. Continue into the bright and enchanting center hall foyer. Notice the wood flooring that will follow you throughout the 1st floor. To the right of the foyer you have the parlor, a room for conversation or quiet down time. It was once used as a first floor bedroom, and can be again if one is desired. To the left of the foyer are the dining room and family room. Both of these rooms are spacious and have versatility to meet your needs. The room that is currently used as the dining room, and the parlor, both have the historical bay windows and the Victorian ceiling medallion. The dining room bay window offers a charming bay window bench seat. In the family room, there is a feature most of us have never seen before, a radiator shelf also known as a glove warmer. It is fascinating. Before reaching the kitchen you come upon the back stairs, also known as the ‘midnight snack stairs’ since it is a convenient shortcut from the 2nd floor hallway to the kitchen. The kitchen has an open concept featuring a U shape countertop exposing mega food prep area, granite material including the breakfast bar that can seat 4. The kitchen has an abundance of cabinets, an inlayed sink, and the built-in microwave, dishwasher and 5 burner stove are stainless steel. Another bay window in the kitchen where the window bench seat was renovated as a built in nook to display some of your treasures. The eat in area of the kitchen is super nice for quick meals and easy clean up. Brand new sliding door just installed brings you out onto an expanded deck, overlooking the driveway and rear yard. A 1st floor powder room completes the 1st floor. Onto the 2nd floor. A master bedroom suite with master bathroom, dual sinks, a closet and then yet another window bench seat in the private dressing area of the master suite. 2 more nice size bedrooms with ceiling fans and classic woodwork accenting the space and a modern Hall bathroom. What a convenience since the laundry facilities were brought to the 2nd floor and in a room the size of a small bedroom so it holds a table to fold clothes on and the ironing board. There is also a fire escape from the laundry room. This is a piece of the property’s history. One more level to go with 3 more bedrooms. All the BRs have high ceilings on the 3rd floor too, with some slanted Victorian style ceilings but still leaving you with 3 descent size BRs. One bedroom has a private entrance to the 3rd full bath with the luxurious soaking claw foot tub. All this house, slightly short of 3500 sq feet of living space sits in the heart of Morton, Ridley Township. SEPTA regional rail is around the corner, public bus stops nearby, Philadelphia International Airport 12 +/- minute drive, shopping and dining only minutes away on Baltimore Pike. There is a community swimming pool nearby that you can join for a summer fee, and many parks are close by too, some are even dog friendly. This is a rare and once in a lifetime opportunity for 1 fortunate buyer!

Welcome to your own slice of Chadds Ford charm — a custom Victorian beauty that proves they really don't build them like they used to. This stunning four-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom home sits on a generous lot that gives you the kind of breathing room most homeowners only dream about. From the moment you pull onto the private drive, you'll feel the outside world start to fade away — just you, your car, and maybe a deer or two passing through. Before you even step inside, the beautiful wrap-around front porch sets the tone for everything this home has to offer. It's the kind of porch that practically begs you to slow down — grab a rocking chair, pour yourself some sweet tea, and let the peaceful surroundings do the rest. Serene, shaded, and perfectly suited for bright mornings or quiet evenings, it's easily one of the most inviting features of this home. The quality of build here is something special. Every detail speaks to the craftsmanship and care that went into creating a true custom Victorian. From the architectural details to the thoughtful layout, this house was built with intention and pride. The interior flows beautifully, offering spaces that feel both grand and genuinely livable. Four bedrooms give everyone in the family their own retreat, with the primary bedroom serving as a peaceful escape at the end of a long day. Two and a half bathrooms mean no more morning traffic jams — well, at least not inside the house. There's also a fully finished, walk-out basement as an added bonus. The secluded lot provides plenty of room for entertaining, gardening, or just sitting outside with a cup of coffee while pretending you don't have a to-do list. The property feels private and serene, surrounded by the natural beauty that makes Chadds Ford such a special place to call home. You're also just a short stroll from the Brandywine Battlefield Park Visitor Center, and families will appreciate easy access to Unionville-Chadds Ford schools. Homes like this in Chadds Ford are rare and don't come along every day. If you've been searching for a custom-built home with serious curb appeal, real private acreage, no HOA, and room to spread out, schedule a showing before someone else falls in love first.
