El Brio Ranch

El Brio Ranch got its unique name after the expression that describes the heart, strength and courage of a good horse! The Ranch is located in the heartland of Brandywine Valley Horse Country and is adjacent to the Laurels Conservation Preserve, offering some of the best views in Chester County. This lifestyle property caters to the equine and outdoor enthusiast while offering a multitude of activities including, fox hunting with Cheshire Hunt, cross country riding, polo, local horse shows and paper chases or enjoy tailgating at the yearly point to point hosted at the Laurels. This countryside estate is a relaxed setting to enjoy the custom in-ground stone pool with a gorgeous waterfall, a stone fireplace and hot tub. The ranch is situated on 182 acres of rolling pastural countryside of which 112 of those acres are under conservation easement with the Brandywine Conservation Trust. The remaining 70 acre parcel adjoins the property and is not under conservation easement and being sold in its entirety as part of the property.

 

Modern convenience and luxury is perfectly merged into old world charm with this classic design, Pennsylvania Dutch Farmhouse. Award winning local architect, Peter Zimmerman, incorporates field stone, logs and clapboard to construct the pristine Manor house, Guest house and Barn. This construction replicates how antique farmhouses were patchwork structures with layers of renovations and additions to accommodate growing families.
