The main level consists of a spacious Living Room, Library with a fireplace, and a large Dining Room with a fireplace. Off the Dining Room is a delightful, large screen porch - perfect for enjoying the breeze in warm weather. The Kitchen has been updated with custom cabinetry, high-end appliances, and plenty of storage space. The homes Laundry is conveniently located off the Kitchen. Completing the main level is a Mud Room and a Home Office. Upstairs are five bedrooms, two of which are joined by a Sitting Room. The Master Bedroom features a bath worthy of placement in a decorator magazine complete with exposed stone walls in the oversize shower! Outside is a large Garage that once served as the farm's Carriage House. The Pool/Guest House has a dramatic cathedral ceiling with a fireplace, kitchenette, full bath, and a sauna. The in-ground pool is privately set behind the stone Garage and is a wonderful spot to entertain. This property has been well maintained, the utilities updated, and central air conditioning added. Located approximately a half mile from the village of Fairville, this property is ideal for someone commuting to Wilmington or needs to travel the route one corridor. This fine property combines both charm and convenience and, for the lucky buyer, represents an epitome of country living!
