An extraordinary treasure tucked into private, lush landscaping, and bordering Parish Trail Nature Preserve along Red Clay Creek~ the serenity of this setting belies the fact it is just minutes from the borough of Kennett Square with restaurants, pubs, and shopping. Lovingly restored and impeccably maintained, this turn-key 1880s Victorian farmhouse is simply superb. The sellers have added a large living space, with vaulted ceilings, a gothic window, high baseboards and reclaimed floors from the stage at Sunset Park in Jennersville. French doors exit the living room to an outdoor oasis complete with deck, pergola, paths, firepit and gardens you must see to believe. Back inside you~ll find a handsome custom kitchen with cabinetry milled on-site, leathered granite counter tops, stainless appliances including a GE Monogram dual fuel (electric oven, gas stovetop) range, stainless undermount sink, and island bar seating. Adjacent is a large dining room with original floors, high baseboards and crown molding. Continue into a separate office/den with windows on 3 sides and expansive built-in bookcases with storage. Finishing off the main floor is a newly added, full travertine-tiled bathroom with unique windows, an entryway with built-in storage and pantry, and a powder room. On the second floor you~ll find 2 bedrooms, both with brand new carpet (hardwoods underneath), generous closet storage, and a hall bath with granite countertop, built-in linen closet, and a tub/shower combination. The third floor is a true respite, with abundant light from character windows and brand-new skylights. The two connected rooms, with vaulted ceilings and wrap around built-in shelves, can serve as a bedroom, office, artist~s loft, etc. There is a basement with laundry area, workshop space and extra storage. The detached two-car garage has a large storage area on the second floor that can also be accessed at ground level in the back. Perfect for kayaks! This space could easily be converted into a play area, office or studio. Recent improvements include a brand-new roof, skylights, tankless water heater, and more. Refer to the list of extensive upgrades. This is a home that retains original features while tastefully updated to accommodate 21st century living. Come see for yourself. Welcome home!
