Impeccably maintained 5-acre farm, perfectly located in historic Chadds Ford, with ease of access to Kennett Square, West Chester, the Main Line, Wilmington and Philadelphia. This property offers a perfect lifestyle balance including private unencumbered views of the Brandywine Conservancy, an intentionally designed home built for entertainment, a charming fieldstone barn with manageable pastures - all within reach of the Brandywine Valley’s cultural entertainment. Located near the Brandywine River Museum and famed Wyeth countryside, you will enter the property on a meandering lane flanked with period homes and well-maintained farmettes. The custom-designed Colonial home was originally constructed in 1999 and features beautifully pointed fieldstone, a classic standing seam roof, an attached 3-car garage, a beautiful flagstone patio and a rectangular pool with fountains and a wading shelf. This outdoor oasis is surrounded by a perfectly manicured lawn and professional landscaping with mature plantings for privacy. The fieldstone barn was intentionally built for ease of maintenance, with four 12x12 stalls, one 12x16 foaling stall, a large tack room, hay loft, overhand for equipment storage, an attached sand paddock, a 70 x 90 sand arena, and 4 grass paddocks, 40 x 40 dry paddock. The facility is appropriate for horses or other livestock, and for the equestrian enthusiast, within easy hauling distance to numerous horse events and endless riding in Cheshire or Radnor Hunt country! Entering the 4700+ square foot home, you will be greeted by an abundance of light, high vaulted ceilings, gorgeous hardwood floors. A Chefs dream kitchen with top culinary appliances by Thermador, including a walk-in pantry. The first floor is thoughtfully laid out for animal owners, with a large mudroom and first-floor laundry room, located near the kitchen and garage door closest to the barn. There is a formal dining room for special occasions, but the large 31’x18’ family room is attached to the kitchen for those cozy evenings spent by the fireplace. There are also 2 half-baths and a spacious family room with a formal fireplace - to round out the main floor living experience. A gracious L-shaped staircase takes you upstairs where you will find 3 bedrooms with a full detached bath, suitable for guests. The 21x14 master suite has his and her walk-in closets and views from every window, including a pastoral view of the Brandywine Conservancy from the Jacuzzi soaking tub in the large ensuite bathroom. Recently added to the 2nd floor is an incredible bonus room above the garage, with exposed beams and a vaulted ceiling, which was renovated and soundproofed to serve as a music studio. The square footage of the home also includes an enormous finished basement (1,000+ sq ft) with a hand-crafted mahogany bar with seating for 6, an adjacent movie room, a fitness center, a full bath, and tons of additional storage space with an enclosed utility space. The basement was created with the serious entertainer in mind. Located in Pennsylvania’s top-ranked Unionville Chadds Ford School District, the elementary school is a short one-mile drive from home. This is an ideal property for a family looking for an easy-to-manage farmette, situated within reach of the suburban conveniences of Pennsbury Township!
