Mendenhall Farmhouse

Gardens are meant to be engaged and enjoyed, and that is the exact premise for this home in southern Chester County near the Delaware border. The owners are avid gardeners and spend time outdoors daily, whether it be walking their dogs, tending to the plants or simply sitting quietly in this peaceful setting for contemplation and emotional restoration. Perennials abound in various cultural settings, complimented by reclaimed granite curbs that now serve as a grand staircase into the gardens.
