Welcome to this spacious and versatile hillside ranch on nearly two lush acres in bucolic Chadds Ford conveniently within the Unionville Chadds Ford school district. Open floor plan, vaulted ceilings and windows galore adorn the main floor. Soaring stone fireplace accentuates the great room on both interior and exterior. Beautiful large picture frame windows provide great natural lighting and spectacular unobstructed protected conservancy views. Large back deck on main level features a sunk in hot tub overlooking the surrounding landscape. Mirroring the main level, the downstairs is great for an in-law suit including full eat-in kitchen, 2 bedrooms, 1.5 bath, wine cellar, beautiful stone wood burning fireplace with doors leading out to padio and back yard that provide equally exquisite unobstructed views as the main level. Adding to the versatility of this property, the 3rd floor has two additional rooms; one currently being used as an office has large paladian window over looking the deck and hillside, the other is currently a game room. Both rooms are connected by a loft/sitting area overlooking the stone fireplace that travels up the wall to the vaulted ceilings. The floor plan of this home as well as the landscape and protected conservancy views makes for a recipe of endless possibility for both multi families or retires.
