Property Description
Take a step back in history in this completely renovated circa 1850 farmhouse that seamlessly blends contemporary architecture and convenience with the beauty of period design. Once the home of the Pigeon Creek General Store, this unique home consists of a 3 story solid stone farmhouse, plus a 1980 era two story log cabin addition, hand built by Amish Craftsmen. The current owners have just completed a major renovation which included a number of structural changes to improve functionality, a new kitchen, new bathroom and powder room, among others. As you enter the expansive 2 story entry, you will immediately appreciate the soaring vaulted ceiling with wood beams. A few steps up into the great room where you are greeted by a graceful two-story stone wall, an overhead walkway, new stairs and reclaimed wood floors. With windows on 3 walls, there is tons of natural light, highlighting the perfect blending of contemporary features with the log-cabin feel. Relaxing in this large space will be cozy even on the coldest days, thanks to the modern 30,000 BTU pellet stove; or just crank up the baseboard heating! Moving into the original home through what was once the front porch, you will find a lovely sitting area to enjoy your morning coffee or a good book. As you enter the kitchen, note the extent of this renovation which included new white cabinetry, large island with storage, stainless steel appliances, wood block countertops, subway tile backsplash and a DOUBLE FARMHOUSE SINK with a view of the back yard. Adjacent to the kitchen is the dining room which can be formal or informal to suit your taste. But it is here that you will begin to appreciate the quality construction that has been around for 170 years; two-foot thick solid stone walls, covered plaster that curves into the deep window wells. Whether entertaining friends or just enjoying the company of loved ones, there are memories to be made here, like so many made during the lifetime of this special place. A newly-added powder room completes this level. At the top of the newly constructed, hand-built stairs you will have the option of heading one way to the loft space which can serve has a home-office or bedroom. Or head the other way, where you will find the spacious and bright master bedroom. Once again, the gorgeous plaster-covered stone walls remind one of the quality craftsmanship of a bygone era. At the same time, you can still have it all with a spacious, newly renovated modern master bathroom with large shower. Across the hall is another bedroom, which could also serve as a home office, craft room or music room. This entire level has brand new carpeting throughout. Heading back toward the entry, we move into the 2nd family room, with a solid stone fireplace featuring a hand-hewn wood mantle and wood-burning insert. This is a comfortable space for relaxing, watching the game or movie or making holiday memories. It could also serve as a guest suite, since a second full bathroom is adjacent. This is also where you will find the laundry area and a generous storage area. Out back you will find a massive 30 x 12 deck with a view of the level, fenced in yard and the rolling farmland beyond. The large, versatile deck features 3 different ways to access the back yard & patio. Since there are entrances to both the dining room/kitchen and great room from the deck, there will be tons of entertaining options. The garage plus newly expanded parking area big enough for 6 cars means plenty of space for everyone. While this historical gem is in a bucolic country setting, it is part of the award-winning Owen J Roberts School District. Plus, you are still close to routes 100 and 422, the outlets, King of Prussia and under an hour to downtown Philly. Enjoy the best of the old and the new in this one of a kind home in the rolling Chester County countryside! Welcome Home! Virtual Tour - https://tours.mjephotographic.com/1665165?idx=1
