    Welcome to Rose Lawn – Where History and Modern Luxury Converge Step into a legacy of timeless elegance at Rose Lawn, a rare gem blending 19th-century grandeur with the comforts of today. Originally built in 1877 by Garret B. Girton and once hailed by the Newtown Enterprise as “Among the Best Houses in the Place,” this storied estate proudly anchors the edge of charming Forest Grove Village. Meticulously restored, this six-bedroom, 3.5-bath masterpiece spans 3,500 square feet across three beautifully finished levels. Period details—graceful trimwork, handcrafted railings, and stunning staircases—honor the home’s heritage, while brand-new systems (roof, windows, siding, plumbing, electric, HVAC, and septic) offer peace of mind and turnkey ease. Nestled on 4.5 scenic acres, the property offers room to roam or the potential to subdivide and build a second home. The fully rebuilt 1800s Pennsylvania Dutch bank barn is a showstopper—awaiting your creative touch as a guest retreat, car collector’s haven, or inspiring event space. Need more room to work or create? The oversized detached garage features approximately 1,000 sq ft below and 600 sq ft above—ideal for a home office, artist’s studio, or expansive storage.
