Picturesque Chester County is home to this gorgeous Cape Cod nestled on 1.5 acres of rolling hills just minutes from downtown Kennett Square & Wilmington. Lush landscaping and stone hardscaping bring serenity and peacefulness to your private oasis where you can escape the hustle and bustle of your day. Hardwood floors grace the entire interior of the home and begin in the living room embraced by crown molding, a chair rail and recessed lighting. For warm ambiance, a cozy wood burning fireplace makes the perfect place to cozy up on a cold winter’s day. Just past the living room, you’ll find a powder room and spacious den with distinguished built-in cabinets and bookshelves making it the perfect place for an office. Wait until you see the kitchen! You will fall in love with the vaulted ceilings and skylights that bring in loads of natural light and highlight your light colored cabinets, stainless steel appliances and oversized island with a granite countertop, pendant lights and enough room for 4 stools. There is even plenty of space to add a table, making this a great eat-in kitchen for family dinners. If you loved the kitchen, you’ll be thrilled with the formal dining room! It has been so tastefully done with recessed lighting, crown molding, picture moldings, a chair rail and gorgeous light fixture that it looks like it was taken right from the pages of a design magazine. Take the stairs to the second floor where your jaw will drop once you see the master bedroom. You’ll never want to leave! Vaulted ceilings, ceiling fan, skylights and lots of windows make this room so impressive that it will easily become your favorite room in the house. A large closet and full bathroom with a tile shower tub accompany this room for a complete en suite. A second bedroom down the hall has 2 closets and a nook that creates a cozy place to curl up with a book while a third spacious bedroom has a walk-in closet. A recently renovated bathroom with tile flooring, a new vanity, new light fixtures and shower tub compliment both bedrooms. For additional storage, a large hallway linen closet helps you stay organized and clean from clutter. The final fourth bedroom and full bathroom can be found above the 3 car garage complete with 3 automatic door openers and a heating system. For outdoor living, your 1.5 acres wouldn’t be complete without a paver stone patio and fenced in yard for hosting summer BBQs and letting the dogs and/or kids run and play safely. Additional features of your new home include all new windows, dual central air installed less than 4 years ago, 3 zone heating, and a new septic in 2016. What are you waiting for?

Specialized Agricultural District
The purpose of this district is to accommodate specialized agricultural uses, including indoor agriculture such as mushroom production and greenhouse culture, and compatible activities that are related to agricultural uses; allow mutually compatible uses to be located near one another to maximize the benefit of their interrelationship; as well as provide a logical transition between higher density/intensity uses nearer to the Borough and the rest of the rural, low density portion of the Township; and accommodate development at a density that can largely be supported by on-site sewer disposal and water supply facilities and systems. In addition, it is the intent of the district to achieve the applicable purposes and community development objectives as stated in Article I.
