Completely updated throughout, this unique 5-acre country property offers the enchanting sights and sounds of the gorgeous Pickering Creek and an island of trees filled with birds and nature. Deceivingly larger than it seems from the outside, this home offers a flexible floorplan with many different ways to use the living space-- the existence of the full bath on the main floor, which is complete with a jetted tub and tile shower with seat, allows for the possibility of a main-floor master or in-law suite. Warm hardwood flooring can be found on the main level and the 2nd floor hallway, and wood beams grace the ceiling of the living room. Stunning kitchen with stainless steel SubZero refrigerator, Bosch flat cooktop, stainless dishwasher, and remarkable tile mural above cooktop. Spacious master bedroom has a skylight and full bath with tile shower and super-sized closet. Bedroom #2 is as roomy as the master bedroom and also has an extremely large walk-in closet. Remarkable for the age of this home is that the two-car detached carriage-style garage with overhead storage combined with the walk-up 3rd floor attic space means that storage is not a problem. Amazing paver backyard patio lined with huge boulders overlooks the creek and island, and enchanting brick walkways and a grape arbor adorn the yard. Special features include new windows, siding, roof, heating and a/c system. Relaxing 31'X8' wrap-around front deck; the sunroom has a private entrance off this front deck which may be convenient for a home-based business (please check with the township for acceptable uses). This home is nestled amongst beautiful horse farms yet within minutes of the popular downtown Phoenixville eating and shopping establishments, Valley Forge Park, public schools and convenient to Philadelphia. The views from the back and side yard of this property must be seen to appreciate. This home would make for an exceptional weekend retreat as well as a charming and distinctive forever home.
