The Barclay is also pet-friendly.

19086
Todmorden Hall (6 Todmorden Lane, Rose Valley), an 18th century home in Delaware County, is steeped in Philadelphia history. The property was once used as an outlook during the Revolutionary War and later served as a haven for the Underground Railroad. The Hoyt Scott family, of Scott paper towel fame, lived here in the early 19th century and planted the gardens that endure today.
HOME HIGHLIGHTS Extensive historical renovations gave the residence, built in 1780, a new life. The five-bedroom, five-bath home totals over 7,000 square feet and features a chef’s kitchen, two half-baths and four additional rooms to be used at the homeowner’s discretion. Design elements like exposed brick, built-in shelving, and original fireplaces and molding give the home a genuine sense of character. The residence is priced at $2.25 million.
GREAT OUTDOORS Set on 2.8 acres, open-air porches can be found on the first and second floor, and the expansive patio and backyard even has a koi pond.
INSIDER INFO “Historic charm meets modern amenities tucked away on a brilliantly landscaped oasis with a tennis court in an awardwinning school district,” says Mike McCann of The Mike McCann Team (mccannteam.com). “Out of all the homes I’ve seen in my career, this one tops them all. I could live here for 100 years!”
