100/105 W SHOEN RD Exton, PA 19341

Bound together by beautiful stones of all types, this once popular Exton mill has stood the test of time, has remained the cornerstone for historical sites in the Chester County area, and is now looking for a new owner. This property consists of 2 separate parcels, one with the old Mill building zoned as R1 and the other a plot of land with R2 zoning. The property located at 105 W Shoen Rd has been designated by the township as a Class 2 Historical Resource allowing a multitude of uses in historical buildings that aren't allowed in the standard R1 and R2 zoning district. Placed on a beautiful piece of land located next to a stream, popular access roads, and entertainment shopping centers, 105 W Shoen Rd is considered as the ultimate "fixer-upper", because it has a wonderful untold story and a gorgeous shell. There is tons of potential to bring back its original beauty. The main floor on the inside has dirt floors from corner to corner. Stairs lead to the second floor where hardwood floors line each side from front to back. History: Once known as Trimble Mill, this fieldstone structure dates back to 1790 and has had several different owners over the years. The first family to own the mill came into possession of the land in 1757. After 33 years they built the mill and the family operated in it until 1880. Nearly 10 years later the mill was sold and the owner turned the space into a carriage house and stable. A couple years passed and the mill was sold to a new owner for quarrying purposes, and the property stayed in the hands of that family until the mid 1940's.
