Property Description
This appealing Chester County farmhouse is truly one of a kind! The pictures speak for themselves, but you must see this home in person to appreciate fully its character and warmth. Painted in authentic Old Philadelphia colors, this home has been updated for today's lifestyle yet remains true to the late Victorian architecture. Front and side porches feature ornate cypress railings, recently restored by a local craftsman. The entire property is a gardener's paradise offering a wide variety of seasonal perennials and established plantings in sun, shade, and vegetable gardens. The original barn in back serves as a garage with plenty of storage. Beyond the barn, a corn and bean field, belonging to Immaculata University, has been farmed for over 100 years. New brick walkways lead you back to a large, covered porch and into the home that welcomes you with wide plank pine flooring and period details. The eat-in kitchen features Corian countertops, under-cabinet lighting, enamel cast iron sink, and stainless appliances. Just off the kitchen, the living room opens to the side porch through glass French doors with wooden summer screens. The inviting dining room is perfect for Sunday dinner with friends. The first floor powder room has exceptional touches including skylight, stained glass window, wainscoting, as well as tongue and groove ceiling; tucked behind custom-made doors is the convenient laundry area. A wooden staircase leads you to the second floor with an updated hall bath and three bedrooms with generous closet space. The master bedroom has an alcove with casement windows that look over the scenic backyard. Accessible through the master bedroom, the walkup attic offers plenty of storage. Need more? The spacious basement also has additional storage opportunities. The home has so many upgrades, including a new hot water heater and a brand new septic system! Located in the award-winning Great Valley School district, and convenient to Malvern's shopping, restaurants and commuting access. This is much more than a house and property. Move-in ready, it is a meticulously cared-for residence, perfect for the family that appreciates an authentic, historic home in a peaceful, garden setting.
