This historic Easttown gem is situated on a level 2 acre property located in between the Waterloo Mills and Leopard Lake neighborhoods in the highly acclaimed school district of Tredyffrin-Easttown. This quintessential Chester County farmhouse is turn key! The current homeowners have spent the past six years updating nearly every aspect of the home and cottage with NO expense spared. This magnificent property includes 3 buildings, a 4 bedroom/3.5 bathroom MAIN HOME, a separate 1 bedroom/1.5 bathroom guest COTTAGE, and a newer 3-car detached garage. The main home and cottage are separated by a beautifully pointed stone walled courtyard with an abundance of seasonally blooming landscaping by Naturescapes. The rear of the home has stunning yard views from the natural stone and brick tiered patios accented by a Walpole pergola. A brand new kitchen features new cabinetry, Eucalyptus hand scraped plank flooring, Quartz countertops, a farmhouse sink and gourmet appliances. All bathrooms have been remodeled within the last 6 years, each one unique in features and style. The roof is a 40-year double cut cedar shake shingle with all copper flashing, pole gutters and downspouts. Updated 7-zone HVAC with dedicated systems for the 1st and 2nd floors. New Pella Architect series windows and French doors throughout the entire home as well as a full house natural gas powered generator. Pure and simple, this property is superb - a wonderful, unspoiled vintage farmhouse with modern conveniences throughout.
