Property Description
This widely-admired landmark home, once referred to as "Bonnie Brook" has greatly evolved over the years. It was originally built in 1880 as a classic stone Pennsylvania farmhouse. In 1924, inspired by travels in England, then owners, Mr. and Mrs. Fogg, created the charming "cottage" look. The current owners made substantial improvements in 2001 including a Gourmet Kitchen, Family Room, as well as a sensational 2nd floor Master Suite in addition to other updates. As you enter the home through the vestibule area, you step into the best of old world charm combined with today's comforts! The living room is large with 2 walls of windows, a brick fireplace and door to a fabulous screened porch with ceiling fans, a wood floor with additional access to the Dining Room and lawn. The views are magnificent, and the space is ideal for enjoying the peace and quiet of the more than 1.5 acres of wooded land. The gracious Dining Room has 2 walls of unique, long windows with tree-top views, a built-in corner cupboard and entry to the "Captain's Cabin" which is a completely charming with myriad uses: an office or bar area. Off the center hall is a powder room and a stunning Gourmet Kitchen. Its features include a desk area, granite counters, custom cherry cabinetry, Bosch dishwasher, and two sinks. The large island of matching granite provides an expansive work surface and functions beautifully as a buffet when entertaining. It includes a 2nd dishwasher and adjacent Thermador oven and range and wall oven with microwave above. Alongside the island is an eat-in area with built-in bench in front of a lovely picture window overlooking the woods. This airy kitchen opens up to a sunny Family Room, a gas fireplace and access to a spacious deck with wrought iron railing - a perfect place for enjoying dinner al fresco or additional entertaining space. The 2nd floor, with cozy landing nook, boasts 3 wonderful bedrooms, an office with entry to a sleeping porch and access to a bathroom, and a laundry room. The master suite is absolutely incredible! The bathroom has a fireplace, walk-in closet, double sinks and soaking tub overlooking the grounds. Just outside the en suite bathroom is a 2nd walk-in closet and large bedroom with ceiling fan. The third floor has a sitting room, lovely bedroom, full bath, cedar closet, and bonus room. The grounds are stunning with a level large side yard, several patios, access to walking trails of Rose Valley and its amenities, and unparalleled views!
