Welcome to 1019 Ashley Road, a beautifully designed 3-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom home tucked away near the end of a quiet, tree-lined cul-de-sac in the desirable Plumly Farms neighborhood of Westtown Township.

The wooded area has been cleared of invasives, ready for new native plantings. Seasonal color abounds with sugar maples, magnolias, dogwoods, lilacs, cherries, redbud, rhododendrons, and more.
