Private sale, valuable Tract of Land

09.21.1830 Village Record
TO be sold at private sale, a valuable
Tract of Land, situate in the township of
Tredyffrin, Chester co. on the Valley road that
leads from Howells [Howell's] tavern to the turnpike and
rail road, about one quarter of a mile from the
said turnpike road, containing thirty acres,
fenced off into convenient fields, a part of which is
woodland well set with young chesnut timber.
The improvements are two Dwelling Houses,
the one a good Stone House nearly new, two
stories high with two rooms on a floor, and a
cellar under - a well of water and a frame stable
convenient thereto. The other is a convenient
Log House, situated near to never failing spring
of water over which is erected a convenient
spring house; there is a garden attached to each
of the houses with pail fences; also a variety of
fruit trees, and two young orchards one near to
each of said houses. The said premises would
answer well to be divided into two tenements,
as the said Valley road passes through the same,
so that eight or nine acres of said land with the
said log house & spring, is situated on the north
side of said road, and the other part of the said
premises on the south side. A further description
is thought unnecessary, as any person wishing
to purchase can view for themselves by
applying to John Reese or Griffith Wetherby
residing near the same, or to the subscriber in
Philadelphia. From either of them the conditions
of sale may be known.
