Description

Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in one of Kennett Square’s most coveted neighborhoods, this stately residence offers luxurious living in over 8,400 square feet of space on a beautifully landscaped 1.15-acre lot. With lots of custom changes to the floor plan during original construction, this exceptionally well laid-out home is perfect for sophisticated entertaining, yet is warm, comfortable, and equally perfect for everyday living. The front of the property includes a curved stacked-stone wall, a circular driveway, lush gardens, and stone pavers leading to a grand covered entrance, while the rear of the property includes a newly updated flagstone terrace and a private fenced-in yard. The main level features 10-foot ceilings, newly refinished hard-wood flooring, and a two-story foyer with curved staircase. The gourmet kitchen has a granite island providing seating for four, an angled granite peninsula, tons of cabinet space, and a bright breakfast area overlooking the grounds. Appliances include a 60-inch professional-grade Viking six-burner range with a griddle, two full-size gas ovens, and a range hood; a 48-inch Sub-Zero side-by-side refrigerator; an electric wall oven, microwave, and warming drawer, all by Wolf; and a Bosch dishwasher. Just off the kitchen is an enormous walk-in pantry, a butler’s pantry with built-in cabinetry and granite counter with backsplash, and an elegant dining room with a tray ceiling, wainscoting, arched entrances, columns, and a large picture window. The family room has a vaulted ceiling, marble fireplace, lots of glass, plantation shutters, and a magnificent custom-made, built-in entertainment center. The home has a large private office with French door entry, two double-door closets, built-in shelving and cabinets, and a granite credenza. The main level also includes a bright sunroom with glass on three sides and French doors at both ends, a living room with marble fireplace, and two powder rooms. The upper level has five spacious bedrooms, each with its own full bath. It also has a generous laundry room with counter space, lots of cabinets, and a deep sink. The primary bedroom has a marble entry foyer, tray ceiling, marble fireplace straddled by built-in window seats, and an adjoining sitting room with built-in cabinets, desk, and a television nook. The primary bath has a double glass shower, marble floors, an oversize tub, and an arched picture window with custom wooden shutters. The lower level includes a home theater, a mirrored exercise room, a large recreation room with a built-in TV entertainment center, a powder room, and lots of unfinished storage space. The three-car garage has a newly added beautiful epoxy floor, lots of built-in shelving, and an electric vehicle charger. This home has exceptional millwork and craftsmanship throughout. It is freshly painted, has new carpeting in numerous rooms, and has a monitored alarm system, perimeter flood lights, and a Generac 26 kw automatic power generator that was newly installed in 2024. This impressive Chester County property should not be missed!
