Rose Lawn. A rare opportunity to own a piece of history with today’s comforts. Originally built in 1877 by Garret B. Girton and described by the Newtown Enterprise as “Among the Best Houses in the Place,” the Rose Lawn sits proudly at the edge of the village of Forest Grove. Lovingly restored to its former grandeur, this six-bedroom, 3.5-bath residence offers approximately 3,500 sq ft across three finished floors, plus an unfinished basement. The home blends timeless charm with modern comfort—preserving original trim, staircases, and railings while incorporating all-new systems, including roofing, windows, siding, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and septic. Set on 4.5 acres, the property offers the potential to subdivide for a second residence or enjoy space for a small farmette. The fully rebuilt 1800s bank barn, crafted with Pennsylvania Dutch precision, is ready for your finishing vision—ideal for farm animals, car enthusiasts, or as a unique gathering space. An oversized detached garage features approximately 1,000 sq ft on the main level and an additional 600 sq ft above, perfect for a home office, studio, or storage. Roselawn Estate is where historic elegance meets modern living. Make it yours.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
