At the end of a gently winding driveway & overlooking a 1/4 acre spring-fed pond, this stately, cedar-clad, 2-story home with its verdant surrounding landscape beckons you. Inspired by traditional Vermont barn structures, this custom-built contemporary farmhouse combines traditional & modern elements to produce an aesthetic that is at once rustic & refined. The open floor plan creates a layout that is equally functional, flexible, & chic. Banks of strategically placed windows provide optimal views of the picturesque property from nearly all rooms, while filling the interior living space with abundant, natural light. In the 2-story foyer, the stained-glass window's richly hued panels allow colorful bands of light to filter into this welcoming entrance. Salvaged from a local building & repurposed into a dramatic statement piece, the prominent display of this antique work of art sets the tone for the home's overarching theme of timeless elegance. From the entryway, you have a clear view through the great room to the lush, backyard beyond. Rough-hewn ceiling beams & reclaimed timber accent the main living areas adding warmth, character, and texture to these rooms. In the great room, Heart Pine floors & crisp white walls combine to create a lounge area that is spacious, yet inviting; its focal point is the striking cathedral ceiling that draws the eye upward to the 2nd floor balcony. The great room's sliding glass door opens to the terrace making the exterior living space a seamless extension of the home. Within this tranquil garden setting, a koi pond accents the outdoor dining & seating area, while the retractable awning provides shady relief on warm days. Connected to the great room is the beautiful sunken kitchen, where the Shaker-style cabinets, slate-tile backsplash, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, beamed ceilings & hardwood floors blend to create a balance of rustic warmth & simplicity. The walk-in pantry adds storage to keep the kitchen organized & clutter-free, while a Vermont Castings stove infuses old-world charm into the kitchen's adjoining dining area that looks out to pond-views beyond double French doors. Behind the kitchen is the 4-season sunroom- an ideal spot to enjoy a morning coffee or a good book. The convenient main floor study is adjacent to the powder room and can double as a guest bedroom. Upstairs, the 2nd floor boasts a balcony that overlooks the great room & separates the master suite from the 2 additional bedrooms. Awake each morning to sensational views of the property from the sun-filled master bedroom with walk-in closet & an updated en suite bath. Both secondary bedrooms are spacious & cheery and, like the master, the 3rd bedroom features custom built-ins with a window seat. Completing the upstairs is the hall bath which has been stylishly remodeled to align with prevailing trends. Throughout the home, custom architectural details, reclaimed materials & vintage-inspired elements add historical ambience to the residence's modern layout. The result is a perfect balance between traditional farmhouse aesthetics & sophisticated contemporary living. With no shortage of available storage space, this sprawling 2.5-acre property boasts a 24' X 44' barn-style garage and a 2-car carriage house in addition to the home's unfinished basement. Above the 2-car carriage house workshop is an incredible walk-up studio with its own entrance. Vaulted ceiling, Palladian windows, skylights & wood-burning stove make this space ideal as an artist's retreat, home office, or guest lounge. Pride of ownership is evident in the exceptional details of this home's construction & maintenance from the pond-fed irrigation system, underground electrical wiring, updated windows & freshly stained exterior to the updated septic system currently being installed. Enjoy privacy and seclusion while remaining close to Philadelphia & major travel routes to Delaware and Shore Points. This is truly a home beyond compare.
