This is a drop dead gorgeous home, professionally decorated, designed and precisely maintained, showing like a large Society Hill townhome nestled in the rolling Hills of Chester County’s Radnor Hunt country. Breathtaking views from every room of green expanses of Conservancy land. This circa 1798 home’s first addition was completed by the highly respected and nationally acclaimed R. Brognard Oakie and his son, Charles (AIA) in the early part of the last century. The second major renovation was guided by local award-winning architect, Warren Claytor (AIA) and constructed by esteemed period builder Mark Slouf. Details include: A complete renovation / restoration of the main home was finished in 2013. Three bedroom suites with updated bathrooms, beamed ceiling, 2 working fireplaces, vintage spiral staircase, random width hardwood floors, custom millwork throughout, wet bar, great storage and closet space. There is an all-white chef’s kitchen with stainless steel Thermador appliances, including a 6 burner range and double oven. A sparkling white marble backsplash looks over beautiful natural green soapstone on the perimeter countertops. The island is covered in white marble and introduces the cozy keeping area with a wood burning fireplace and seating area. A recently completed COVID project includes an exquisite 2nd floor gallery and office (converted bedroom which can easily be converted back) with updated millwork and custom built-ins and a full bath, with access to a spiral staircase leading to the living room below and the 3rd floor bedroom suite. This space especially, affords exceptional views of preserved land.

A walking path leads to a detached guest quarters with a 4th bedroom, full bath, built in bookcases, a second wet bar and wine refrigerator. A bead board ceiling completes this 2016 update.
