Property Description
All-stone showpiece on Milton Dr.! This 5BRs/3.5 bath detached 2-car garage home has classic, beloved architecture of a charming 1930s-built home with sweeping rooms and elegant details, yet splashes of updates for modern lifestyle. This 3,000 sq. ft. beauty has declared prime property in sought-after Brandywine Hills where there are ribbons of sidewalks, tree-shaded serene streets and black elegant lamp posts encouraging morning jogs, evening strolls and profound sense of community life, yet merely minutes from Rt. 202/I-95, barely 10 mins. to Wilm. Amtrak Train Station and 20 mins. to Philadelphia Airport. Appreciate traditional, center hall colonial floorplan in new neutral tones that features original hardwood floors, deep inset windows, and handsome millwork throughout home, with bonus rooms of sunroom and screened-in porch on either side of home, creating both interior and exterior symmetry. LR is to left of welcoming foyer and is gracious in every way with crown molding and 1 of 2 wood-burning FPs with time-honored brick hearth that creates instant ambiance of class and contentment. French doors grant access to dual-entrance 16-window sunroom with new carpeting, exposed stone wall, views to tranquil side yard, wide ledge running perimeter of room where plants, pillows and past-read novels stake their claim and a never expires invitation to rest and read. Off sunroom is convenient dual-door, tile-floored PR leading to kitchen as well. Opposite LR, across foyer, is formal hardwood-floor DR where softness and sophistication blend together with crown molding, chair rail and neutral color to offer venue for dinner parties or special occasion meals. French doors lead to stone-floor, screened-in sun porch, creating balance with floor plan and a warmer-weather go-to spot where the only requirement is to relax. Tucked neatly between foyer/DR and kitchen is generous, sun-infused, multi-purpose room with terracotta-style floor, roomy DD closet, currently banks of cabinets, oversized windows, and endless possibilities. Create charming mud room with series of hooks, benches, and coordinating cubbies and cabinets. Update laundry facilities and move W & D into DD closet. Design butler s pantry with built-in wet bar with extra cabinet storage for glassware and china. So many easy-to-execute options! Hardwood-floored kitchen touts rustic charm and easy elegance with its focal point of a stone wood-burning FP, while circular table and window bench with comfy pillows beneath 5-window back wall softens edges of room and 2 glass-pane end cabinets anchor and provide finishing touch. Open shelving mixed in with cabinets lets the room breathe by not compartmentalizing areas, and white tile backsplash keeps this room s look fresh. Relish hidden gem in unfinished LL. In addition to 2 sizable storage utility rooms there is European-flavored, all-brick wine cellar with arched wooden door, fronted by large room perfect for tasting wine! All-hardwood floor 2nd level boasts open foyer with window, ideal for desk just below. Hall bath at top of steps is ideally located as 2nd bath when entertaining, while 3 spacious secondary BRs on this level are nice-size with abundant space and lots of natural light. MBR features multiple deep-inset windows, walk-in closet and private bath with tile shower and cherry vanity. Sumptuous guest suite (or 5th BR) on 3rd floor offers delightful accommodations with exposed stone wall, brick-trimmed windows, 2 window seats and private luxurious full bath in contrasting B & W d cor! Your guests will never want to leave! Backyard is secluded and where natural elements create screen of privacy and peacefulness to enjoy all seasons. Much-loved charm and convenience at 303 Milton Dr.! Note home photos were taken when the home was staged. Seller is in the process of packing. Note - photos were taken when the home was staged.
