About This Home

As of August 2022

Situated less than one mile from the historic and charming Unionville Village, close to all the area schools and a short drive to the popular Kennett Square, 940 Unionville / Wawaset is ready for its new owners. This home has the charm and wonders of an 18th century residence but with all the modern day conveniences to accommodate todays lifestyle. The first floor has spacious rooms including a living room and dining room separated by large doors, an updated kitchen, and a sunroom where you will want to start and finish the day. The 2nd floor includes 3 bedrooms and two full baths, one of which can be used as a primary bedroom with the best "loo" view in Chester County. The 3rd floor has two additional bedrooms and a full bath which could also make a great primary suite, in law quarters, teen pad, etc. For more living space, the finished basement has an office area, half bath, family room and laundry. This country estate has over 10 acres in Act 319 (low taxes), is surrounded by eased land (privacy), has stunning but manageable gardens (low maintenance) and is in Unionville/Chadds Ford School District (highly desirable.) In addition to housing mowers, the barn has a finished room which could be a great artist or yoga studio, home office, or home for all your toys. The pool house (lower barn) includes a full kitchen, full bath and ample space for entertaining, including the covered patio or the adjoining barn. The fenced pool area is surrounded by beauty and nature at its best. Lastly, there are two additional out buildings and a preserved spring house that feeds the Pocopson Creek. Don t miss the opportunity of a lifetime in one of the most beautiful areas of Southern Chester County. There is no sign at the property.
