About This Home

As of January 2022

Opportunity of a lifestyle is calling! You just need to decide what your lifestyle and calling is. For the current owners, it was Kreutz Creek Vineyard and Event Venue, a hobby they started, in 1989, and grew into a 20 acre estate featuring 8 acres of grapevines used to produce award winning wines. Production included growing, bottling, labeling, corking, and capping by hand. Memories were made with weddings and concerts in the vineyard. The property is zoned for a Bed and Breakfast, and events up to 125 guests, three times a week. The owners are now ready to retire, but that doesn’t mean you can’t have a dream. This might just be the perfect time, to explore the possibilities presented with this estate. Maybe you also love wine and dream of growing your own grapes; maybe you love horses. There is a pretty sweet detached barn, with electric, water and three 10x10 overhead garage doors. Maybe you have hobbies with lots of toys; or maybe you just want to get away from it all. No matter your dreams, they can be answered when you become the new owner of this 3600+ square foot residence, set on 20 of the most beautiful acres this side of heaven. The home features spacious rooms, cathedral ceiling family room, huge eat-in kitchen, 1st floor laundry room, primary suite with a 10x13 primary bath, and so much more. There is also an attached 3-car, end-load garage. The lower level is partially finished as it used to host wine tastings. There are several rooms and lots of possibilities. A side entry door leads to a patio area overlooking the grounds. If you are nervous you might miss city life, great news, you are a short commute to Kennett Square, Chadds Ford, Longwood Gardens, and Philadelphia. What are you waiting for!?! If you are one of the few who can afford it, you owe it to yourself to schedule a showing, of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. AGENTS – Please read Agent Remarks!
