Welcome home to 859 Burrows Run Road, located in the heart of Chadds Ford Pennsylvania. Situated on a peaceful and park-like 4.2-acre lot, this 5 BR 3.5 BA custom brick home was lovingly built to last by its original owners with an eye for enduring quality and a quiet country lifestyle. Located at the end of a long and meandering driveway, the home is not visible from the road, offering a private and bucolic location that is close to all the public amenities that today’s homeowners require. Classic features of this expanded custom cape include an all-brick exterior, accented by a wide and inviting front porch with antebellum columns, which overlooks the pasture and pond in the side yard. Inside you will find many timeless features including Pella casement windows, floor to ceiling bay windows, solid wood interior doors and staircase, and two wood burning fireplaces with brick and stone hearths. The traditional layout offers a spacious floorplan with nearly * 4000 square feet above grade living space, plus additional living areas below in the partially finished basement. The main floor includes a spacious living room, dining room, family room with wood burning fireplace, a study, a comfortable country kitchen, with granite countertops and stainless-steel appliances, an oversized laundry/mudroom with utility sink, built in cabinets and pantry closet. Still on the main floor, the bedroom wing includes the primary bedroom suite with attached bath and walk in closet, two additional bedrooms, both spacious, and a hall bath. On the second floor you will find two large bedrooms, both with walk-in closets, a hall bath and two walk-in attics. Both the first and second floors offer ample closets and storage areas so you will never run out of storage space! Downstairs in the partially finished basement you will find a rec room with real wood paneling, a wood burning fireplace, a lower-level office, bilco doors leading to the back yard, a powder room, and a wood shop complete with built in work benches and its own electric panel. The workshop has a separate set of stairs leading to the garage for easy access when moving those large woodworking projects. Outside you will find a lovely covered rear porch which overlooks the inground liner pool. If you fancy the country lifestyle, there is a large 38'x15' barn/outbuilding with electricity, offering plenty of room to house your llamas, ponies, workshop or simply for additional storage space. With over 4 acres, the possibilities are endless! A few cosmetic updates to the flooring and bathrooms will send this property value soaring! Recent improvements include a new roof (2020) new garage doors and new gutters/downspouts, (2019), paved driveway (2016), and covered rear porch (2014). * Square Footage per public record: 3967 above grade with additional 944 sq ft finished basement.
