A rare opportunity to own one of Whitemarsh Township’s most distinctive residences. Known as The Peace Barn, this extraordinary home began its story in 1814 as an addition to the historic Highlands barn and mansion. Today, it stands as a remarkable blend of preserved history and thoughtful modern living—a home unlike any other on coveted Sheaff Lane.
