Nestled in the heart of West Chester, along lovely tree-lined streets and quaint Victorian-era architecture you'll find Sharples Works apartments, a five-acre enclave of four distinctive, historically certified brick and timber mill buildings.

This unique complex was built in the 1890's to house the Sharples Separator Works, developers of the dairy industry's first tubular cream separator. The sprawling facility was considered one of the country's most significant industrial production plants of the era. Practically overnight the Sharples Separator Works churned out efficient production of cream products for countless Chester County dairy farmers, and thousands of workers were hired to handle the company's growing capacity well into the 20th century.

As technology changed, the Sharples Separator Works eventually became an outmoded facility and the complex served a variety of commercial purposes in the latter half of the 20th century. In 1984 noted national rehabber, Historic Landmarks for Living, bought and restored this rundown relic at a cost of $11 million. Great care and creative renovation transformed this complex into a luxury apartment community of 155 distinctive apartments, blending the architectural details of the past with the contemporary apartment amenities of the present.
Today, Sharples Works apartments is the crème de la crème of luxury apartment living in beautiful West Chester and all of Chester County!
