Description

Set against the backdrop of Chester County’s rolling hills and winding country roads, this custom-built home at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac captures the spirit of the area—timeless, thoughtful, and built to last. Cherished by its original owners, the property reflects years of care, stewardship, and investment. While not overly flashy in style, its true value lies in the countless upgrades, and meticulous upkeep that make it so functionally modern. From the moment you step into the two-story foyer with its graceful staircase, you’ll sense the craftsmanship that defines this home. Gather in the formal dining room for holiday meals, or curl up by the family room’s full-wall, wood-burning fireplace on cool Chester County evenings. The updated kitchen, with quartz counters and an oversized black stainless refrigerator, blends today’s conveniences with a classic, welcoming design. The living room’s bay window is a plant lovers dream, while the three-season room overlooks peaceful woodlands—a daily reminder of the beauty of this region. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a retreat of its own, with a Juliet balcony, sitting room, and spa-like en suite bath with oversized walk-in shower. A spacious office (or fifth bedroom), along with three additional bedrooms and a full hall bath, provide flexibility and room to grow. What truly sets this home apart is the investment the owners have made over the years: ✅ New roof including plywood (2012) ✅ Three season room addition (2004) ✅ Well Pump (2006) ✅ Rear Garage (2007-2008) ✅ Several newer windows-Marvin Windows and garage doors (2011) ✅ Quartz countertops kitchen and powder room (2012) ✅ New Garage Doors and Railings (2013) ✅ Flooring and Bathroom Upgrades (2014) ✅ Heat pump (2018) ✅ Driveway work & New Outdoor Lamp Posts (2014-2016) ✅ Whole-house propane generator (2022) ✅ Fireplace chimney cleaned (2023) ✅ Water conditioning system (2024) …along with countless updates large and small, always handled with care. Inquire for complete list. Utility spaces are just as thoughtfully designed. The oversized two-car attached garage features a unique pulley system for lowering heavy equipment into the high-ceilinged basement workshop, while a solid concrete block outbuilding/separate garage offers additional workshop or creative space—perfect for projects that Chester County homeowners so often enjoy. Here you’ll find a setting that feels tucked away, yet you’re only minutes to Exton, Phoenixville, Marsh Creek State Park, Valley Forge, and the PA Turnpike. Privacy, convenience, and tradition come together in a home that’s been built and maintained with pride. This is more than just a house—it’s a Chester County retreat where quality and care stand the test of time. (Interior photos will be available next week!)
