About This Home
As of June 2024This is your chance to own a classic & expansive Chester county farmhouse built & owned by an award winning architect. You arrive at the house from a quiet, winding road through the forest. The home is nestled into a hill, rambling as if built over time. At the top of the hill, a clearing opens to a broad expanse of lawn & a generous oval drive & second entry allowing ample parking. The exterior is made of old field stone carefully salvaged from old barn foundations to create massive proud chimneys & datestones. A shake roof & clapboard & dormer details & period windows with stone surrounds add to the authenticity. The stone & clapboard give a clean & classic look.
As you enter the home, up the stairs & through the mature boxwoods, you are greeted by an open foyer with detailed millwork of full raised panel walls & pilasters. Crowns & beams also highlight the authentic Chester County 18th century style. As you traverse the home, find wide random plank floors & bluestone floors throughout. While the house is in detail authentically elegant, the 2006 construction allows many modern advantages such as large room size, high ceilings, large sweeps of tall windows & bays, in most rooms. Certain rooms like the garden room to the east & master bedroom to west have double height windows; two & three exposure per room are typical allowing light from morning to afternoon. Contemporary furnishings easily complement more traditional details. The house is long & allows for these exposures, so many places to congregate, dine & cozy up & read a book! The west end of the house features the main floor master with high ceilings & windows, as well as sofas for lounging & a wet bar, an updated walk-in closet & a bath with separate soaking tub & shower. Access from the master to the study provides a great option if you are working late. Four additional bedrooms on the upper levels share two full hall baths. The architectural details are too numerous to list & the plan creates memorable & unexpected features.
In contrast to the traditional moldings & tone walls, the east end of the house was recently renovated, transforming four independent rooms, kitchen, breakfast room, study & garden room, into one open flowing living & dining space. The center of the space is the huge stone two-sided walk-in fireplace & broad stone stairs that lead to the spectacular views from the walls of windows in the vaulted garden room & terrace beyond. All molding was simplified & whitewashed, floors painted a stone gray giving the area a fresh modern farmhouse feel in the casual part of the house. A great place to entertain & enjoy! Entering from the casual foyer/mud room area, the garden level of the property offers a bedroom suite with attached full bath that is accessed by a private entry door from the front exterior & the lower casual foyer area & garage. Perfect for anyone needing to enter without using stairs, or for use as an au pair or in-law suite. It is connected, yet completely private.
Set within a large clearing of enormous Tulip trees, the grounds are composed of large sweeps of lawn, mature English boxwoods, Hollies, Rhododendrons & Norway spruce situated at a distance. Drifts of plantings provide seasonal color & there are many native ferns through out. The effect is a very green estate feeling, & is surprisingly low maintenance. Terraces are raised on walls & paths of blue & fieldstone have broad steps that lead to the lawn beyond. The topography offers a generous flat area for net & field games. The view of the landscape offers privacy in all directions. One interesting detail is that the house sits at the highpoint between West Chester & Longwood; you can watch the coveted Longwood fireworks from the front terrace! Tucked away on a very low-trafficked street, this home is easily accessible to West Chester, Kennett Square, the Main Line, Philadelphia, Wilmington & a short Amtrack ride to NYC, plenty to do!
