About This Home

As of August 2018

Stunning 5 bedroom, 3 full, 2 part bath home on almost 3 acres on a serene cul-de-sac street in historic Thornbury Township. Very low taxes! This elegantly appointed home leaves nothing to be desired. A long driveway leads to a stone paver walkway up to a covered front porch entry. Stepping into the gracious two-story foyer, you will immediately recognize the brilliant design and beautiful upgrades that make this home truly one of a kind, including: professional landscaping, hardscaping, and outdoor lighting, wide-plank hardwood floors, fresh paint throughout, extensive custom trim and millwork, and much more! The enviable eat in kitchen features Cherry cabinetry, granite counters, tile backsplash, double wall oven, and walk-in pantry. The kitchen opens to a breakfast room and spacious living room with wood burning fireplace, built-in shelving highlighted by the incredible scenic rear patio and grounds. Just off the kitchen, the spacious laundry and mud room features custom cabinetry, a built-in secretary, and access to the rear patio, attached 2-car garage and a detached two car garage with potential living space above. Down the hall, and away from the main living area, the first floor master boasts a walk-in closet with shoe closet, and bathroom closet - all with custom built-ins - and a luxurious en suite bath with a double vanity and oversize tiled shower with water features and built-in speakers. The first floor is complete with a formal dining room, living room, and powder room. Upstairs, three additional generously sized bedrooms share a hall bath, with a fourth bedroom, a roomy and light filled second master or Aupair suite with a separate set of stairs to the main level. The finished walkout basement provides plenty of additional living space, including a large TV/entertainment area, a wet bar, fitness room, executive home office, powder room, and plenty of unfinished storage space. Sliders open out to an incredible outdoor oasis, which features a spacious limestone multi-level patio and pool with a stunning waterfall, hot tub, and built-in sound system. A stone staircase leads up to another patio with an outdoor kitchen. The views from the patio, as you look out on the acres of open space behind you, are simply breathtaking. Located in the desirable West Chester Area School District, Rustin feeder, historic Brandywine Valley, convenient access to Routes 202 and 1, local upscale shopping and dining, DE tax-free shopping & West Chester!
