3 Matthews Run, Chester Springs, PA 19425

On a gently sloping, 1.6-acre cul-de-sac lot with an elevation that provides fabulous long-range views, this Colonial home enjoys a setting that can best be described as a private natural sanctuary “on top of the world!” Surrounded by towering shade trees and adorned with lush landscaping, the outdoor living spaces to the back and side of the home guarantee the fullest enjoyment of nature, as deer, birds, and other wildlife are frequently spotted passing by. Throughout its 2,455 sq. ft of indoor living space are countless appealing touches including window seats, attractive built-ins, two fireplaces, ceiling fans in the kitchen, deck and all bedrooms, and random width with red oak planking wood flooring throughout the main level. And so many improvements – all windows, roof on the house and storage shed, HVAC, and toilets are new, and a water softener has been added. The gracious living room, with fireplace and built-in corner display case with glass shelves, is accessed from the large entry foyer through French doors and, in turn, provides access to the back deck through another set of double glass doors on the opposite wall. The large formal dining room has a wall of built-in cabinets and shelving to store and display your finest dinnerware, glassware, and decorative items. A cozy, sunken family room features more built-in shelving, a second fireplace, and remarkably large windows to let the natural light in. The kitchen boasts all new stainless steel appliances, a custom tile backsplash, and generous cabinets and counter space, including a center island with a breakfast bar. The powder room and laundry room are conveniently located on the main level as well. On the second level are four generously-sized bedrooms and two full baths. The spacious primary bedroom has his-and-hers closets and its private bath has a dual sink vanity and a separate, private step-in shower and toilet area. In addition to the main attic, there is plentiful attic space above the two-car garage, making it easy to store holiday decorations and seasonal items, tools, and boxes. The basement is unfinished, providing yet more storage room and possibilities for a workshop or work-out space. What is possibly the most alluring feature of this home is how it invites the coveted pastime of outdoor living. Not only does it have a rarely-found, private, covered porch to the side, accessible through the kitchen so you can ease into the day, coffee and croissant in hand – there is much more. The rear deck with a ceiling fan is partially covered, to be enjoyed rain or shine. It then steps up and extends to another, almost circular, deck suitable for a dining table and provides picture-perfect, up-close views of the garden and endless greenery of the backyard. Backyard barbeques, late-night stargazing, and friendly gatherings, large and small, will undoubtedly be experienced here again and again! Highly sought-after Downingtown schools, proximity to Pine Creek and Walnut Lane parks, The Mill at Anselma (National Historic Landmark located in Chester Springs), the ever-popular dining and shopping venues of Exton, King of Prussia, the brand new recreation center about to open in Phoenixville, and easy access to commuter routes (not far from the Route 202 corridor and not far from the Downingtown entrance/exit of the PA Turnpike) make this location supremely attractive. Visit this exceptional home today and experience its enchantment… then make it your own!
