Description

Experience timeless elegance with this stately Chester County farmhouse nestled on over 4.6 acres within the coveted Unionville-Chadds Ford School District. A gated entrance leads you to a classic 1746 stone farmhouse seamlessly enhanced by a 2009 addition, combining historic charm with modern luxury. The original stone farmhouse welcomes you with two distinct entrances: one opening into a living room adorned with deep marble windowsills and a cozy wood-burning fireplace, and the other into an inviting den featuring a brick-surround wood-burning fireplace and a convenient half bath. Adjacent to the den, discover a rustic pub boasting exposed stone walls, a fireplace, a bar, and direct access to a rear patio overlooking perennial tiered gardens, a tranquil fountain, and a sparkling pool—your private oasis. Upstairs, three spacious bedrooms offer scenic countryside views, complemented by a full bath and a large laundry area. The 2009 addition greets you with a charming front porch leading into a front-to-back mudroom, a generous pantry, and a half bath. From here, step out to a patio surrounded by perennial gardens and the inviting inground pool. The mudroom connects to a hallway featuring a full bath and an additional bedroom, flowing into an expansive great room and gourmet kitchen. This space is highlighted by a wood-burning stove, exposed beams, and a striking stone wall. The kitchen is a chef’s dream, equipped with a large island perfect for entertaining, a soapstone farmhouse sink, a 6-burner gas Wolf cooktop, double ovens, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, and two dishwashers. Enjoy casual meals in the cozy breakfast area with stone walls and serene views of the fountain and manicured lawn. The formal dining room in the original section of the house offers an elegant setting for special occasions. Ascend the stairs from the great room to the luxurious primary bedroom suite, complete with a spacious bath, walk-in closet, a sitting area with a gas fireplace, and a private office. A connecting hall with ample closets links back to the stone farmhouse. Outside, the meticulously maintained perennial gardens bloom year-round, complemented by fountains, a pool, a play area, and expansive open spaces for year-round enjoyment. This distinguished farmhouse sits on 4.6 acres offered in its entirety, including two tax parcels. The main house occupies 2.33 acres, while an additional 2.29-acre buildable lot borders 8 acres of open space, presenting exceptional investment potential.
