What's around 158 Locksley Road

About this property

Steeped in history and rich with potential, this remarkable property was once the family residence of renowned civil rights attorney Louis L. Redding, a Delaware Bar member. Mr. Redding was a member of the distinguished legal team that successfully challenged school segregation before the U.S. Supreme Court in the landmark Brown v. Board of Education case, helping to shape the course of American history. Set on 9.13 picturesque acres, the historic residence enjoys serene views of a tranquil pond and charming spring house, offering a private and scenic setting rarely found today. Importantly, there are no known restrictions prohibiting subdivision of the parcel, presenting a variety of possibilities for future use and development. Located within the highly regarded West Chester Area School District, the property features a five-bedroom, three-bath home that is in need of comprehensive restoration. This offering presents a unique opportunity for preservation-minded buyers, historic home enthusiasts, investors, or those seeking to create an extraordinary estate while honoring its significant legacy. Prospective purchasers should contact the listing agent to discuss the scope of restoration required. Due to the condition of the home, initial showings will be followed by a second tour conducted with the listing agent for qualified buyers with serious interest in the property.
