Four Chimneys Farm, Unionville, Pennsylvania
Less than a mile from the quaint village of Unionville, in the Brandywine
Valley of Pennsylvania, sits one of the most uniquely crafted homes in
historic southern Chester County. Enter the property into a white gravel
motor court to a U shaped courtyard framed by horse pastures, beautiful
gardens and mature trees. The home, which was constructed in 1978 with
reclaimed 18th century fieldstone and wooden beams from the original
period farmhouse, is modeled after a French hunting lodge.
An imported French mahogany door welcomes you into the 4,825 sq ft.
homes’ entrance with a sunken great room featuring a massive fireplace;
one of 4 working fireplaces which inspired the name Four Chimneys Farm.
The stone interior walls and spectacular 30 foot beamed ceiling are a nod to
the original historic Kane Farm that once occupied the land.
Adjacent to the great room is a modern kitchen with Viking Range, Sub Zero
refrigerator, two dishwashers and two sinks. The kitchen also contains a
mud room/sitting area and a cozy breakfast bar. A second stunning stone
fireplace is the centerpiece of a spacious dining room with a vaulted ceiling
and views of both the courtyard and gardens. A wood paneled library offers
a third fireplace and boasts a wet bar with views of one of the horse
pastures.
The first floor primary suite is a private retreat in itself. Relax by the
fireplace, while taking in the expansive views of the swimming pool and
terrace overlooking the 49+ acre farm. The master bath features a large
soaking tub, purposely placed within view of the horse fields, and a sizable
glass shower with modern fixtures. Dual spiral staircases lead to a second floor balcony, that connect two
private guest wings with three bedrooms/two full baths-- all designed with
classic marble for timeless appeal. Each bedroom commands unparalleled
views of the surrounding countryside. The lower level of the house provides for practical office space, a wine cellar, storage and another half bath. Finally, there is an oversized three car
garage, suitable for a car collector. The equestrian facility is comprising 8 fields, each with a turn out shed and automatic waterer, an outdoor regulation sized sand dressage arena, a 70’ by 200’ indoor arena (office or apartment space) and a 13 stall barn. There is a finished tack room,a heated wash stall and an attached farm manager/groom apartment. A large tractor/hay shed and tool building
completes this turnkey equine center, which has it’s own entrance and
driveway. The barn and house are on separate utilities, allowing the
equestrian center to be leased as a turnkey professional operation.
The property is suitable for professional competitors, fox hunting enthusiasts
or pleasure riders looking to enjoy direct access to thousands of acres of
open space, including 1300 acres adjacent through the Cheslen Preserve. In
addition, the property is preserved under ACT 319 (Clean & Green) through
the Brandywine Conservancy, resulting in very low taxes for an estate of this
size.
Four Chimneys Farm is perfectly located in the heart of Cheshire Hunt
Country with easy access to Olympic level training programs as well as world
class events at Plantation Field International, The Devon Horse Show and
Fair Hill Training Center. For the non equestrian, the Brandywine Valley is
well known for attractions such Longwood Gardens, the Brandywine River
Museum and the wonderful communities of Kennett Square, West Chester
and Wilmington, Delaware. The farm is located in the award winning
Unionville Chadds Ford School District and is a short drive to regional
railways and the Philadelphia international airport.
