Property Description

This is a once in a life time opportunity to own "Doe Run", one of the most important and centrally located horse farms of Unionville, Chester County, PA. This spectacular estate was home to many successful race horses and is perhaps more than equally well known for the “world famous gardens” of Sir John and Lady Thouron. The estate and gardens have been editorially featured in many important publications, most notably in Architectural Digest and The London Times Sunday Magazine.

This 220 acre masterpiece enjoys an idyllic setting with magnificent protected views of the finest Chester County rolling hills in all directions. There are two ponds, a stream and extraordinary gardens that include specialized alpine, river, shade, delphinium, wild flowers and formal gardens. Supporting these gardens there are two large professional green houses.

The equestrian facilities include two separate significant stables, turnout stables, and a bank barn. Also it should be noted that Doe Run and its neighboring properties are the setting for the world famous "Cheshire Hunt" and the "Pennsylvania Hunt Cup".

The main estate house enjoys a spectacular front to back grand Foyer, Formal Dining Room, Living Room, and both a small and a large paneled study. There are 9 bedrooms including an extraordinary master suite which includes his and hers baths and dressing rooms/sitting rooms. Additionally there are six other residences of varying sizes including a handsome 18th century farm house.

Rarely does a property of this magnitude ever come on the market. This property is offered at $15,000,000 by Long and Foster Real Estate, Inc. and Christie’s Great Estates. For further information please contact Charlie Irwin at 917-374-8239 or Reggie Hunt at 610-888-6313.
