About This Home

As of January 2024

Nestled within a serene and private 13.6-acre estate, this custom-built home stands as an unparalleled masterpiece in Chester County. Crafted with impeccable attention to detail, the residence boasts authentic natural stone gracing its exterior and paver patios that frame incomparable vistas of the Chester County landscape.

The exterior is adorned with genuine natural stone, while an inviting paver-front porch and secluded back patio beckon, creating an idyllic backdrop for entertaining. Designed with a keen focus on comfort, this residence welcomes you with a grand foyer featuring lofty ceilings, intricate custom moldings, and exquisite finishes, accompanied by the warmth of hardwood and tile flooring that grace the first floor. Upon entering, a spacious family room awaits to the left with a wood-burning fireplace, and to the right, an expansive dining room stands ready. Adjacent to the dining area lies an eat-in gourmet kitchen, complete with custom cherry cabinets, a gas stove, double ovens, stainless steel appliances, and stunning stone and onyx countertops. Continuing along this corridor, a private back office and powder room await, along with a first-floor primary suite, versatile enough for either family or guests. The first floor harmoniously combines functionality, a seamless flow, and abundant natural light.

The allure of the second floor matches the magnificence of the first, featuring hardwood floors and lofty ceilings throughout. Four generously proportioned bedrooms grace this level, including a second primary suite showcasing a gas fireplace, an oversized walk-in closet, and an ensuite bathroom boasting a soaking tub, tiled shower, and dressing area. Along the hallway, a tranquil reading nook provides a serene space for relaxation while overlooking the rolling hills of Chester County. Adding to the allure, a substantial rear room offers the versatility of an extra bedroom or an inviting secondary sitting area.

The walkout basement offers a blank canvas, encouraging the creation of a gym, a movie room, a bar, a wine cellar, or any other imaginative vision that comes to mind.

Demonstrating abundant offerings, the property also features a detached three-car garage in as-is condition could be a haven for car enthusiasts or an ideal workshop space.

The main residence enjoys a coveted location in Kennett Square, just minutes from the esteemed small town that is Kennett Square. An epicenter of activity, it provides an array of shopping, dining options, artistic pursuits, and more. Moreover, this property offers convenient access to Philadelphia, Delaware, and Maryland, solidifying its stature as a home that seamlessly combines luxury, seclusion, and an enviable locale.
