MARLA SCHECHTER

Description

Seclusion and four season splendor in the idyllic East Nantmeal setting. A long cherry & evergreen tree lined driveway passes by a huge wildflower field in summer months bringing into view the private pond surrounded by landscape and a bald eagle’s perch. The private drive leads you up to a sprawling, freshly painted rancher on a hilltop overlooking the trout filled pond and expansive wildlife-filled acreage. A nature lover’s dream, this gorgeous 14 acre property offers tranquility and escape while still being conveniently located to major interstates and amenities. Ideal location situated in award-winning West Vincent elementary/OJR schools and minutes away from dozens of parks and amenities, including French Creek State Park, and French Creek and Stonewall Golf Club. Homesteading and sportsman’s paradise with a large organic garden, huge custom chicken coop, deer, turkey, bald eagles, blue herons and every bird in Chester County. Fishermen have their pick between fly fishing in the private creek, casting a line in the palomino filled pond with brand new fountain, renting a kayak at nearby Hopewell Lake or Marsh Creek or taking your boat out to Struble or Blue Marsh. A mile-long, private trail surrounds the property with stunning views of the south branch of the French Creek for over 1/2 mile. This section of the creek is truly special because it is impassable, meaning no outsider can come through the property at any point. The rambling creek borders the exclusive, nationally recognized Stonewall golf course visible during winter months. Hardwoods and evergreen abound, turning the seasons into a kaleidoscope of colors from every window of this lovingly renovated home. The freshly painted home features a massive foyer which leads up a short staircase into the new kitchen and breakfast nook. An open living plan allows you to view the fireplace in the family room as you prepare dinner. Four bedrooms on the main level host large closets, views of the pond, and an additional stone fireplace in the largest bedroom. Interior updates include new HVAC, kitchen/dining area with glass-paneled maple cabinets, granite counters, new appliances, multiple upgraded bathrooms, a large laundry/pantry room with huge custom barn doors and a coffee bar area overlooking the pond. A large custom walk-in closet was built in the primary bedroom and new floors and paint throughout the home. The basement was renovated with a full bath, additional storage closets and more. There are multiple uses for the expansive lower level including a guest suite, game room, home gym complete with sauna, or a children’s playroom. The second primary bedroom is currently used as a home office, taking advantage of a private entrance. New back patio off the walkout basement; waiting for a hot tub or family cookout area! There is space for a pool overlooking a vixen hall gazebo. Tons of storage inside the home as well as a detached two car garage, and an additional three garages. Shopping, dozens of parks & preserves and great health care nearby. Schedule your showing today and experience the peace of country living!
