Description
This classic Brandywine Valley estate sits tucked off of Hickory Hill Road in Pennsbury Twp on a picturesque 23-acre lot with rolling hills and partial wooded areas. This private location is immersed in nature and offers a blank slate for a future retreat from the large nearby hubs. A long driveway wends through verdant pastures past the original spring house to the breathtaking brick colonial home. A stately brick courtyard entrance welcomes you. Much of the home has been gutted to create a perfect canvas for a future dream home. Many of the original details remain including the grand 2-story turned staircase, soaring 10' ceilings, 5 classic fireplaces, timeless hardware and millwork and original wood floors on the second floor. Immediately begin to envision your future home as you pass through large rooms including the living room, dining room, library/family room and primary suite. The footprint currently offers the option for 5BR and 3.2 baths. A second turned staircase leads to the massive unfinished 3rd floor. Additionally the unfinished lower level walk-out provides more square footage with concrete floor and high ceilings. A sweeping brick patio sits off the rear of the house and overlooks a stunning and serene view of the wooded area surrounding the yard. The grounds are a nature lover's paradise and include a 2-story bank barn, currently concrete flooring and can easily be converted to stalls for horses, equipment or any number of options. This home is located in the Unionville-Chadds Ford school district and is just minutes from downtown Wilmington Amtrak Station, Chadds Ford and Philadelphia airport.
