The Oscar-nominated true crime drama film “Foxcatcher” appears to be helping Toll Brothers transform a tragedy associated with a local 400-acre estate into home-sweet-home in Newtown Square.
In a Wall Street Journal news story, Kris Maher reports Toll Brothers is remaking the former home of billionaire John du Pont – whose obsession with both winning and wrestler Mark Schultz turned murderous — into a luxury development of homes and townhomes ranging in price from $600,000 to $1.1 million.
The development now includes a $4.5 million restored carriage barn with a fitness center, pool, tennis courts and recreation area – along with 200 acres of fields, woodland and a nature preserve.
