The 2008 family film, “Marley & Me” starting Jennifer Aniston and Owen Wilson is a real tearjerker but there’s no denying that the house in the movie is probably someone’s dream house. Who wouldn’t want to move into the old stone house John and Jenny Grogan called home in the film?
Though one of the stars of the film was the gorgeous dog Marley, the house was a character as well. So, if you want to move to Pennsylvania, this house is now on the market for a mere $1.45 million – and that’s a steal.
Situated in Chadds Ford, the house sits on just under 16 acres and has five bedrooms, 3 ½ bathrooms, and is the perfect place for a growing family to move into. Featured in several architectural magazines over the years, the house has plenty of modern amenities though it is over 100 years old.
As the agent’s description claims, the house is “greeting-card perfect” and that is exactly what it is. Built in the mid-1830s, native stone comprises the main house, which has had several additions. The kitchen has recently been updated and the master bathroom has Carrara tile with a claw-foot tub.
The house is ideal for a family that loves the great outdoors. In addition to the main house, there is a 6-stall barn and plenty of fenced pastures for your horses. So, why hold your horses? Move in today!
