An exceptional Dawesfield property with two stunning stone colonial homes is available for sale in Ambler.

This spectacular 22-acre plot is surrounded by Wissahickon Watershed preserved open space offering stunning views. It also boasts stunning flora in the magnificent gardens which are surrounded by stone walls.

In addition to the two three-story homes, the property features three barns, multiple detached garages, sheds, a greenhouse, a spring house, guest house, 3-hole golf course, and a swimming pool.

The property is a haven for any history buff, as one of the two homes was used as George Washington’s headquarters in 1777 during the Revolutionary War. Additionally, more than 10,000 troops were encamped on the grounds and the adjacent properties.

Many historic items are included in the sale, including the bed Washington slept in while the property served as his headquarters. There is also the framed will of Richard Whitpaine signed by William Penn.

One house has seven bedrooms, while the other has five. Both have retained their historic charm while being updated with all the necessary modern amenities.
