About This Home

As of June 2023

This stunning French colonial home sits quietly on 4+ acres of beautiful blooming gardens in the esteemed Radnor Hunt community. A walled entrance leads to this peaceful and private retreat with sweeping lawns, custom-designed landscaping with gorgeous perennial beds, magnificent rose beds, an expansive flagstone patio, a fenced-in flat backyard with a rock garden and gazebo and a large koi pond with a waterfall; complete with a pump house. This is a home where you can sit and watch the seasons change, immersed in peace, with multiple fireplaces to warm you on cold nights. Or you can host dinner parties and holidays on a small or large scale in the many different areas of the home. A circular driveway and brick stairs lead you to a sun-soaked two-story foyer, flanked by a formal living room and dining room. The living room features tall windows and an elegant fireplace, while the dining room invites in all the natural light and lush front views of the estate. Continuing through the house there is a handsome study/office complete with cherry bookcases, a fireplace and a wet bar, followed by a centralized step-down, 2-story great room featuring a magnificent stone fireplace, vaulted ceilings, skylights, and breathtaking views of the backyard gardens. The kitchen is brand new with white shaker cabinetry, Subzero refrigerator, commercial Wolf cooktop and built in downdraft, double ovens, veined quartz counters and a large island with ample seating, tastefully complete with a huge walk-in pantry. Off the kitchen is a spacious sunroom with vaulted ceilings, more sky lights, and another wet bar, as well as access to a large, walled flagstone patio. A laundry room with storage, back staircase, and 2 powder rooms round out this floor. The second floor boasts 4/5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The primary suite is in its own wing and includes vaulted ceilings, walk-in closets and a wood burning fireplace with a brand-new spa-inspired bath featuring dual shaker vanities, a freestanding bathtub, a walk-in shower, a private commode and radiant heated floors - the perfect retreat after a long day. The back staircase leads to the enormous guest room/au pair/in-law suite or upstairs playroom. Downstairs is a finished basement that features an exercise room and movie/viewing room, a pool table area, along with a guest room with a full bathroom and 2 showers; plus a large unfinished area for storage and utilities and a separate stairway up to the foyer area. Enjoy the Chester County countryside within minutes of the restaurants and shops of Malvern, Paoli and Newtown Square- and a mere 30 minutes from Philadelphia International Airport. An oversize 3-car garage, central vacuum, storage shed and vegetable garden complete the package. This home has been loved and well maintained. See the improvement list for the many upgrades.
