If you've been yearning for a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of city life, this is the perfect haven for you. As you approach the property, you'll be captivated by the scenic surroundings. The vast acreage provides ample space for outdoor activities, gardening, and creating your very own oasis of serenity. A spring house is located in the back yard and it provided fresh water and refrigeration to the homeowners in the prior century. The house stands proudly, featuring a handsome blue insulated vinyl exterior, a testament to its durability and style. Inside, you will find a home that exudes warmth and character, with finished office space thoughtfully tucked away on the other side of the oversized garage. This residence is zoned Suburban and offers a unique opportunity for those looking to combine their living space with their professional endeavors. Step inside this spacious farmhouse, and you'll instantly feel the charm and character that only a home with its rich history can offer. The main living areas are thoughtfully designed, offering a perfect balance between functionality and coziness. With ample room for gatherings, family activities, and entertaining, you'll find every corner of this farmhouse to be inviting and accommodating. With its separate living room, family room, dining room, butler’s staircase, finished walk-up attic, and main floor laundry, this property boasts architectural elements that blend tradition with modern functionality. The farmhouse kitchen is charming, featuring generous counter space, and a delightful view of the sprawling landscape. It's a place where culinary creations with friends and loved ones turn into cherished memories. The current 40-year owner has consistently invested in its upkeep, with key updates made over the years. In 2014, the kitchen and baths were thoughtfully redone, adding a touch of contemporary elegance to the home. The siding was replaced in 2011, along with insulated vinyl siding, ensuring not only a visually appealing exterior but also improved energy efficiency. Outside features a spacious screened porch along with a separate front porch. Practical upgrades have also been made to enhance your daily living experience, with the driveway recently repaved for smooth and safe access. The A/C compressor was replaced in 2021, guaranteeing comfort during the warmest months, and the roofs were replaced in 2020-2021, ensuring your peace of mind for years to come. Additionally, window replacements in 2000 contribute to the overall energy efficiency and modern appeal of the house. History enthusiasts and avid readers will be delighted to know that this very house has been featured in the book, A Hockessin Diary by Nancy C. Sawin, to its distinctive charm and significance within the community. And speaking of the community, you'll find yourself conveniently located just a stone's throw away from the beloved Woodside Creamery and Montessori School, adding to the appeal of this location. Whether it's sitting on the porch, enjoying a cup of coffee, or hosting a barbecue with friends, this farmhouse provides an idyllic setting for creating unforgettable moments. This is a home that has stood the test of time. If you're seeking a property that offers suburban living in a rural setting, don't miss the opportunity to make this house your own.
