Built in 1780, this stone and wood home sits within magical surroundings bursting with lush gardens, soaring trees and a sparkling pond, brimming with bass. Exuding the quality and charm of a time gone by, this is your chance to immerse yourself in the best of both worlds. Mornings are best started on the sunny brick patio with a coffee in hand and the sun on your face. In the afternoons, you can spend lazy hours fishing in the pond or wandering through the wood-like setting, as you listen to the local birdlife and wildlife that share in this slice of paradise. Inside the home, the layout is spacious and unique, with a brick foyer connecting the main living area to the kitchen and dining area. The eat-in kitchen features a wall of windows to frame the lush outlook and, when friends drop by, you can take your pick from the patio or the enclosed screened porch to rest and relax. A large and bright dining area is ready for meals with loved ones. Flow through to the light-filled living room with hardwood flooring and a soaring wood-lined ceiling overhead. A wood-burning fireplace ensures a cozy ambience on those cool fall afternoons, while a staircase leads to an upper-level loft. Skylights ensure a bright and welcoming space that is perfect for use as an office, an inspired artists studio or simply a reading room. At the end of the day, you can retreat to the spacious owners suite with a vaulted ceiling. Doors open out to a private balcony where you can breathe in the country air as you take in that sensational view. The guest bedroom also has ample closet space and a small deck with views over the grounds and there is a hall bath with a double bowl vanity. A detached 3 car garage is set just to the side of the home and there is a center patio ready for entertaining all summer long. The desirable Chester Springs location, within Downingtown school district, is ideal. A country setting that provides easy access to Rtes. 113, 401, 202, 30 and the Pa Turnpike.
