You must see this charming 3 Bedroom, 3.1 Bath ranch home on 3.5 acres in the Unionville-Chadds Ford School District adjacent to permanent open space! The home was significantly rehabbed inside and out in 2012. A spacious Barn was added at this time and is currently used to store the owner s car collection but there is plenty of room for your horses and everything else the horseman or contractor requires. A new walkway and front porch deck leads to a foyer and hallway with a coat closet and powder room. The Living Room houses a handsome pellet stone (very efficient!), new windows, and deep crown molding (the floor under the wall-to-wall carpet is finished wood!). Step up to the Dining Room which is currently used as a music room. In the east side of the home are two bedrooms - each with a renovated full bath! Cooks will love the Kitchen which boasts high end appliances (Viking stove, Bosch dishwasher, SubZero refrigerator), soapstone counter, and custom tiger maple cabinets above and painted cabinets below - all lovingly crafted by London Grove Cabinetry. The spacious Master Bedroom is on the west end of the home and features a luxurious Bath with custom cabinets also crafted by London Grove Cabinetry, an oversize tumbled marble tile shower stall and a large (5 x17 ) Walk-in Closet. In the lower level is a Family Room plus loads of dry storage and the laundry. The pool area has also been totally redone with a new gazebo, decking, fencing, and fireplace. A large rear deck overlooks the back yard. The exterior has new hardie board siding and real stone veneer. Contractors will love the large Barn that can store a vast amount of supplies and equipment. The property is convenient to Route 926 and Route 1, 35 minutes from the Philadelphia airport as well as the Wilmington Train Station. This is a fantastic opportunity to own wonderful home, in a great area, and in one of the best school districts in Pennsylvania!

Very well maintained ranch in a private, rural area of West Marlborough Township. This property has a lot of extras that make it worth taking a look at. Situated on 3.5 acres and backs up to open space, custom inground pool, pool house, screen porch, paver patio, deck, large garden area in front, beautiful landscape, and a great barn. This barn has its own heating system and looks like it was used for a workshop. It could easily be made back into a garage or a great place to have horses! The interior of the home has a lot of upgrades too. Some include a slate foyer, hardwood floors, nice kitchen with what looks like newer appliances, replacement counters which look like granite, finished basement with a second wood stove and nice area to relax. The property is being sold in as-is condition and seller has limited knowledge of the property. Corp addendum required with accepted offer. All inspections will be ordered and paid by buyer. No sellers disclosure.

Agricultural-Conservation Zone
First, areas contained within this Zone correspond to sensitive and/or important natural features as identified by the Township's Comprehensive Plan. Specifically, it includes prime farmlands, soils with severe development constraints, steep slopes, important groundwater recharge areas, geologic faults, threatened and/or endangered wildlife habitats, floodplains, exceptional-value watersheds, and any combination of these.; This Zone also acknowledges large areas of the Township that are publicly-owned and/or are subject to conservation easements that preclude their use for anything other than open space or rural land uses. Finally, the Zone includes areas contained within the officially-designated PA Scenic Rivers System associated with the Lower Brandywine Creek; this designation calls for maintenance of the pastoral character of the designated corridors.; Because of the importance of each of these purposes, this Zone will limit permitted uses to those that are rural in character. Furthermore, development intensity will be restricted through the use of specified design and performance standards, so that each use will remain compatible within the intended rural/conservation character. Last, a wide range of agricultural uses and activities will be permitted as a means of strengthening the Township's agricultural economy; however, intensive agricultural operations will be subject to specific design and performance criteria. These measures are aimed at enhancing compatibility. Nonetheless, future inhabitants of this Zone must be willing to accept the impacts of normal farming practices and farm-related businesses.
