This Hellings Builders home in the highly sought-after Spring-Ford Area School District offers a rare combination of quality craftsmanship, modern design, and a lifestyle-driven location. Set behind a gated entrance with scenic views of a neighboring farmette, this home features an open layout with 10-foot ceilings, custom millwork, and a chef’s kitchen with quartz countertops, ceiling-height cabinetry, and premium Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances. The main level includes a great room with a coffered ceiling and fireplace, breakfast area with vaulted ceiling and deck access, a dining room, butler’s pantry, walk-in pantry, a mudroom, and two powder rooms. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a spa-style bath and walk-in closets. One bedroom features an en suite bath, while two additional bedrooms share a hall bath. The laundry is conveniently located on this level, along with a flexible bonus room ideal for a bedroom, office, gym, or game room. The finished lower level significantly expands the living space and is designed for both everyday living and entertaining. A custom bar with island anchors the space, complemented by a full bathroom, private office or flex room, and additional living areas. A custom wine storage feature adds a distinctive, high-end touch. The outdoor living experience is equally impressive. An expansive backyard offers exceptional space for entertaining or relaxing, complemented by a TimberTech deck, heated saltwater pool, a pavilion and thoughtfully designed hardscaping. Location is a key advantage of this home. Set on a flat 1.45-acre homesite, the current owner expanded the property by acquiring additional acreage, creating a more private and expansive setting. Walk to Anderson Farm Park with its community center, amphitheater, playgrounds, and walking trails. You are less than 3 miles to Providence Town Center, 5 miles to Phoenixville Borough for dining and shopping, 13 miles to King of Prussia, and approximately 37 miles to Philadelphia International Airport. This home offers easy access to all major highways and to Philadelphia. Part of seven custom estates in the community of Bechtel Farm, homes like this rarely come available. This is what elevated living is meant to feel like.
