SKEW FARM

Zionsville, Pennsylvania

Few people know about this quiet, beautiful corner of Pennsylvania, just 90 miles from Manhattan and 45 miles from Philadelphia. Hidden away in this picturesque, rolling farmland near Old Zionsville lies Skew Farm - a unique, 57-acre estate that dates back to 1730.

The heart of this splendid property consists of two historic homes; a main residence built in the 1940s; an 6-acre vineyard; and a magnificent stone-end bank barn that includes a winery, office and workshop.

Woods with walking trails, a long tree-lined driveway , man-made pond, spring house and stone bake oven complete the picture of this very special, secluded property which has all the elements of country living at its finest.

MAIN HOUSE:

THE MAIN HOUSE was custom built for relaxed entertaining and has a main bedroom suite with fireplace, main bath and private outdoor patio; a guest bedroom with private bath; a 42' x 23' living room/dining room with beamed ceiling and stone fireplace; and a gourmet kitchen. A small cave nearby has been converted to a wine cellar.

STONE GUEST HOUSE:

The charming 1760 STONE GUEST HOUSE offers an open living room/dining area with dramatic black and white "checkerboard" style marble floor, beamed ceiling and fireplace; a cathedral ceiling in the main bedroom and an eat-in kitchen that opens onto a flagstone patio flowing into a 200-year old open-air Pavilion with a large stone fireplace. These two buildings overlook a large wildflower meadow, and are the center of outdoor entertainment on long summer evenings.

STONE-END BANK BARN:

The first floor of this outstanding 6-stall STONE-END BANK BARN houses the winery equipment and stores the casks of wine. The stalls, with their sliding doors and exits to the barnyard, have been left intact. The top floor offers a wonderful open space with high ceilings and an enclosed office. Two sets of very large wood doors open to admit large trucks and machinery. Interior surfaces have been steam cleaned and wood has been oiled. The barn has a slate roof and is in excellent condition. A cottage, 2-car garage and various outbuildings are close by.

FARM MANAGERS HOUSE:

This two-bedroom, one bath FARM MANAGERS HOUSE dates back to 1730. In 1994 a new furnace was installed and the interior and exterior were freshly painted.
