OFFER DEADLINE HAS BEEN SET FOR 4PM SATURDAY JUNE 1. Well situated in historic Chester Springs horse country, yet easily accessible to major routes in all directions, this charming contemporary cottage is on two well landscaped gorgeous acres with stone walls and open fields, play areas and fenced areas for a garden plot and another for dogs. Turned from the passing quiet country road, it offers privacy, seclusion and great views of the gardens and fields. Private. Very private! Quiet and peaceful...very quiet and peaceful. The occasional stylish horse drawn carriage or bicyclist beyond the hedging add to the ambiance. A 2 level 36ft x 27ft deck accessed from the expansive front yard by stone steps and adjacent to a huge magnolia, honeysuckle shrubs and songbird-attracting vegetation leads into a dramatic great room with a lovingly hand-crafted cedar plank tongue and groove vaulted ceiling and with a massive wood-burning stone fireplace that can heat the house. The room is big enough for a cozy dining area plus plenty of space for visiting, reading or enjoying the many birds attracted to the exterior plantings. Plus there is a corner propane stove. The great room incorporates a handsome fully equipped remodeled kitchen with newish granite countertops, faucet, sink and appliances. The flooring is ceramic tile in the kitchen and in the first floor hallways and bath. A main level back bedroom with pergo flooring would also make a handy office and gets good light from the corner windows. A large storage room is adjacent to a utility room and to a nicely remodeled full bath. The very useful main level laundry room/mud room is accessed through the great room or through the big, oversized 2 car side entry garage. Up a spiral staircase to a getaway loft bedroom and updated full bath with a magnificent wood-burning fireplace and its own 8ft x 21ft deck overlooking the dogwood lined driveway and with private side stairs. Views of this expansive property from the sitting area of the loft bedroom are spectacular. The driveway was just repaved in April 2024. The handsome Amish built roof with lifetime shingle warranty was installed in 2021, along with a rubber roof over the garage and a new skylight. Built in 1974 and well maintained and improved by loving owners over the years, this is a wonderful and rare opportunity for a manageable, versatile, expandable, one of a kind affordable country retreat.
