This beautiful, gated estate is a classic example of an historic Chester County farmhouse, nestled on 2.35 of beautifully maintained grounds with an additional adjacent 2.29-acre parcel (buildable lot), totaling 4.64 acres. Next to the property is 8 acres of open space. There are also views of ponds and wetlands visible from the grounds, strikingly so in the fall, winter, and spring. Immediately upon entry through the electronic artisan-built Sapele wood gates feels like stepping back into time. The lawns, tired fountains and plantings (e.g., rose garden and pollinating garden) set the tone of a Longwood Gardens-inspired atmosphere and three-section home. The 1746 and 1850’s stone sections of the home have been lovingly brought up to today's standard without losing their historic charm. For example, these sections include new wood fireplace mantels and paneling (milled by Tim Flegal from HGTV) and marble window sills. The recently added section circa 2009 boasts an in-law suite, a great room with 9ft ceilings, a chef’s kitchen with stone countertops, and integrated appliances (2 cabinet front dishwashers, Cabinet front refrigerator, double ovens, an in counter deep fryer and a 6-burner gas Wolf cooktop). The spacious pantry has a subzero fridge. Additionally, this section has exposed wood beams, exposed stone walls, huge picture glass windows with views of a backyard reminiscent of Longwood gardens. Each section of the home is integrated into the next, with a unique flow throughout the house on the first floor and the 2nd floor. Watch Longwood Fireworks from your yard at the top of the property. The dark night sky is often clear enough to the meteor showers. *If buyer wants / needs a larger lot, the seller may be willing to include the adjacent building lot for an additional $350K. Agent alert! Adjacent lot is NOT for sale separately.
