About This Home

As of April 2020

New price! Meander in the winding driveway to this classic Chester County farmhouse in a lovely setting of mature trees, shrubs and perennials. The house is a perfect blend of historic charm and modern conveniences. The original section was built in 1803, and the house was doubled in size in 1900. The property features a 3 car banked garage built in 1992 with maintenance free roof, and stairs to ample second floor storage. The workshop/studio beneath the garage has heat and a powder room, appealing to any craft person/artist or buyer desiring an at home office. There is also a detached one car garage/shed. Entering the house through the wrap around porch, you'll note the original white oak floors, deep window sills, exposed stone walls, and the cozy family room addition with built-in cupboards and shelves, vaulted exposed pine ceiling, and copper roof. The kitchen/dining room combination works well for today's casual lifestyle. The kitchen features custom figured cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, bar area with sink, and efficient Hampton enamel woodstove. Walking toward the back door you'll find a huge walk in pantry, coat closet, and powder room/laundry. Upstairs, the master bedroom has a walk in closet and full ensuite , and there are 2 additional bedrooms and full bath on the second floor. Third floor has 2 large rooms and a full bath. Please see the on-line floor plan. See on-line plot plan. Added bonuses are a new septic system installed January 2020, a whole house generator and a new whole house April Aire dehumidifier. Close to Marsh Creek, and an easy commute to the PA turnpike and Rts 100 or 322. Low taxes and the Downingtown School District with its national award winning STEM Academy add to the appeal of this wonderful property. NOTE: Adjoining pasture is under conservation easement so cannot be built on. Views will not change. 2 acre lot to right of driveway has been sold and buyers will build a Craftsman style home construction starting in spring 2020.
