Set on six picturesque acres with mature trees, perennial gardens, and views of 100 acres of conserved land, the six-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath residence was originally the summer retreat of renowned physician and scientist Dr. James Cheston Morris. Rich in history, the property also played a role in the Battle of Brandywine and is home...This extraordinary circa-1846 serpentine stone estate offers a rare opportunity to own one of Birmingham Road's most distinguished historic homes, Fernbank Farm. Set on six picturesque acres with mature trees, perennial gardens, and views of 100 acres of conserved land, the six-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath residence was originally the summer retreat of renowned physician and scientist Dr. James Cheston Morris. Rich in history, the property also played a role in the Battle of Brandywine and is home to the historic icehouse where the nation's first bottled milk was produced—now transformed into an award-winning, two-story wine cellar and tasting room. Stepping through the double front doors, you're welcomed by a grand foyer showcasing the exceptional craftsmanship of a bygone era. Herringbone walnut and chestnut floors, crown-glass windows, a sweeping mahogany staircase, and period architectural details set the tone throughout the home. Off the foyer, the library features custom oak built-ins, an original slate fireplace, and distinctive octagonal-pattern wood floors, while further down the foyer, the elegant double living room offers a wood-burning fireplace with a rare 19th-century French Campan rubané Breccia marble mantel, French doors to the veranda, and a sparkling crystal chandelier. A Hall bath is located across from the Double Living room. The dining room, dating to the original circa-1790 residence, is rich with historic character, including heart pine floors, wavy-glass windows, period millwork, and an 1840s bleu fleuri marble fireplace. It flows into the chef's kitchen, appointed with a marble island, one-piece walnut countertops, premium appliances, and French limestone floors. A dramatic sunroom with cathedral ceilings and walls of French doors overlooks the gardens, while the adjacent breakfast nook and stone terrace provide inviting spaces for everyday living and entertaining. A short flight of Belgian bluestone stairs leads down to the restored serpentine stone icehouse that has been transformed by renowned local architects, Archer & Buchanan, into an extraordinary two-level wine cellar and tasting room, complete with a mahogany bar, 1,500-bottle storage, and architectural details that have earned national recognition. The upper levels offer six bedrooms, four full baths, and additional fireplaces, seamlessly blending historic elegance with modern comfort. Thoughtful updates include central air, radiant heated bathroom floors, a gas fireplace in the primary suite, a spa-inspired bath with a Jacuzzi tub, and a spacious walk-in closet. Outdoor living is equally impressive with a wraparound veranda, heated saltwater pool, spa, bluestone terraces, and professionally landscaped gardens that provide year-round beauty and exceptional privacy. Located within the award-winning Unionville-Chadds Ford School District, just minutes from West Chester, Radley Run Country Club, Brandywine Battlefield, and the Route 202 corridor, this remarkable estate offers an unparalleled combination of history, architectural significance, luxury, and convenience.
