About This Home
Nestled in the heart of the countryside, 3864 Spring Valley Road is a rare and enchanting 1851 stone farmhouse set on 12 acres of pristine, peaceful land. This timeless estate perfectly balances historic charm, elegant craftsmanship, and luxurious country living. The home was proudly featured as the 2012 Designer House. The home’s classic Pennsylvania exterior and surrounding natural beauty welcome you from the moment you arrive. Stone walkways lead through vibrant gardens, past mature trees and flowering shrubs, guiding you toward a brick patio that wraps around the rear of the home, ideal for morning coffee, afternoon lounging, or festive evening hours. Original hardwood floors run throughout, giving each room warmth and rich character. Two exquisite Mercer tile fireplaces serve as unique focal points, offering beauty and timeless craftsmanship. The main living areas are light-filled and open, designed to take full advantage of the views and the peaceful atmosphere. The living room is welcoming and relaxed, with large windows and one of the home’s signature fireplaces. The formal dining room is perfect for gatherings and holidays. At the same time, the kitchen blends classic charm with tasteful updates, with custom cabinetry and a quaint breakfast nook.

A gorgeous heated inground saltwater swimming pool lies just beyond the main house, surrounded by mature plantings and open skies. This outdoor space adds a luxurious touch to the serene setting, including an adjacent fishpond. On the property is a classic bank barn, offering tremendous versatility.
