DRASTIC PRICE CHANGE AFTER JUST HITTING THE MARKET! All offers to be in by Sunday afternoon 5/23 and Seller will make decision at that time. Be sure to get in and see what an incredible value is being offered. Closing date is flexible but can be immediate. Stunning Brick & Clapboard three story traditional home dating back to the 1700s. As the original farm house in historic Red Lion Village, the home was part of the underground railroad and has been rumored to be visited by abolitionists, such as Frederick Douglass, during the Civil War days of America. The original Federal portion of the home was built in the 1830s and each level takes you through another journey, combining details of more simple times with the modern updates found in today’s homes. All the character has been maintained throughout the home and is evident in every detail. Many high quality additions and upgrades have been added which include, Central A/C, Pella Windows, Detached 3-Car Garage with a second driveway entrance, Custom Amish Built Cherry Kitchen with Wolf appliances (double oven, cooktop, and warming drawer) and built-in side-side-side Sub-Zero frigerator/Freezer. A large sunroom addition was also added in 2003 with Tigerwood floors, Custom Bathrooms, several built-ins, and much much more. The interior of the home is much more spacious than it appears from the outside. The acre and a half private setting is a gardener’s dream with stone walkways, patio and numerous mature specimen trees, including a large Magnolia, American Holly, numerous giant conifers, Kwanzan cherry trees, Diadora cedar, Black Birch, Dawn Redwood, Dogwoods, Deciduous azalea, beautiful flowering weeping cherry, several fruit trees (Cherry, Peach, Pear, Apple, Grape vines). An Anthony and Sylvan Swimming Pool surrounded by large arborvitae and an extended patio with large custom Cabana, adds the final touch to this beautifully landscaped home. From the exterior grounds through the interior of the home, you will notice the owners have taken great pride in their home. If you always wanted a unique Historical home with the modern conveniences and quality appointments, look no further. Truly a one-of-a-kind home and idyllic setting located in walking distance to Longwood Gardens. Be sure to walk the grounds and enjoy the many specimens of fruit trees and gardens. Showings start immediately so be sure not to miss this one. Special homes like this just don't come around that often.
