Property Description
This accentuates, this beautiful home with views of Valley Forge Mountain. The original owner was an Artist in his woodworking and his craftsmanship. He drew his inspiration from Wharton Esherick whose nearby Homestead is a National Historic Landmark for Architecture. This open layout with 20 ft. ceilings and open beams are over the kitchen, breakfast area/dining area and the family room with a sunken fireplace pit. This floor to ceiling, stone fireplace boasts a gorgeous, hand crafted, inlaid wood flooring.
The fireplace with the floor to ceiling stone can actually heat the first floor. The family room is also open to the living room with another stone fireplace and multiple sets of sliding glass doors opening up to the massive wrap-around deck, for that indoor/outdoor feeling. The open kitchen area has a unique, circular, eating island. The solarium breakfast/dining area surrounded by windows and light, feels like you are eating outside. There's a 1st floor bedroom/office off of the living room. The 2nd floor is accessed by 2 staircases. There is a larger open wooden staircase and the Esherick inspired hand carved, spiral staircase. The original owner, inspired by Nature, saved a tree from construction and placed it artistically next to the spiral staircase. A fantastic, natural, focal point for the family room and the living room. The second floor main suite boasts, yet another stone fireplace, custom built bureaus and cabinets, a large on-suite with double vanity, oversized tile shower and a jetted tub. There are 2 additional bedrooms and a hall bath. The main and 2nd bedroom each have their own loft area that overlooks the Great Room area, and the breathtaking, birds eye view of the sanctuary woods surrounding this home. The 1 car garage is on the side of the home which enters into the kitchen. There is a full basement under the rear section of the home which could be the perfect, heated workshop, once used by the original owner. A large portion of the deck has been replaced, new stove, refrigerator, washer/dryer and trash compactor..
Need more space ? There is and additional building next to the main house that is over a 2 car garage that has been partially, renovated and has an additional bedroom, bath, living area and kitchen. Laundry area in the garage. This has all the makings of a great Art Studio or the perfect, quiet office.
Don't miss this unique home in the woods with all that nature can show you at your own doorstep.
