Situated on approximately 1.6 acres of seldom traveled Wyebrook Road with mature trees and woodland view. The Franklin School was built in 1887 and operated as a school until 1966. Constructed in 1887 by the famous Potts family, the Franklin Public School served the community until 1970. According to the West Nantmeal Township Historic Commission, all eight grades met in the main level and the school was cited as having the largest rural school library in Chester County. The Wyebrook Grange, #1307 used the upper level from 1906 until 1927. When no longer used as a school, the building served as the home of the Wyebrook Missionary Baptist Church until their new church was completed. Converted to a residence, the house has been fully renovated as described above and is truly a showpiece. All new energy efficient HVAC and low-e windows are sure to provide comfortable living throughout. Power outages are no problem with the propane fueled automatic generator. Qualified buyers are encouraged to schedule a showing and not miss the opportunity to own this special gem with every detail meticulously designed and executed.
