This house will grab you, as it did me when I first saw it. The historic 1915 Craftsman home was built by the owner of the local sawmill; think quality materials and building standards.. Situated in the coveted Garnet Valley School district, the home works well for todays buyer and has so much to offer. As you approach the home from the expansive and solid front porch, notice the abundance of mature plantings arranged for maximum privacy. Entering, you are greeted by a light and bright entry foyer. To your left is a spacious living/great room anchored with a solid stone wood burning fireplace. Pass through to the large Dining Room and take in that view from the wall of windows. Yes, you are looking at the treetops of Newlin Grist Mil and protected space. Continue through to the eat in kitchen which has been updated and improved while retaining the original custom vintage built in cupboard. There is a pocket sized powder room and then the amazing solarium/sunroom. It has terra cotta tile floors and walls of windows. A great space to relax and read. Again, the outside landscaping has been thoughtfully planted so you can enjoy the beauty. Here we have a door to the rear deck and the owners have also added a stand alone covered porch/patio. There is great backyard space for a garden, play area or whatever. There is a two car detached garage along with a carport . Look to your left on the Scott Road side of the property and there is a cutout for additional parking. Take in the views from the rear of this home, just lovely. Back inside, take the steps to the foyer and continue to the second floor. Here you will find four good size bedrooms and two full baths flanking the second floor foyer. The bonus here is the "sleeping porch". The laundry is located here and it is also used for overflow guests, a reading room, whatever you might need. Leaving the sleeping porch, take the stairs to the amazing walkup attic. Just look at the space here and imagine what you could do with it. Take a moment to feel how sturdy this house is. The lower level is a basement with the must have walkup access to rear yard.This home has been loved and it shows. Solid hardwoods on first and second floor except for bathrooms, kitchen and sunroom. Oversized moldings, builtins in the living room, dining room and kitchen. The owners have replaced almost all the windows with quality Marvin windows. They installed a 200 Amp electrical system, .a Bodaris boiler along with a hiVelocity HVAC were recently installed . They added a fifty year roof in 2002.
This convenient location puts you minutes from Schools, shopping, Routes 322 and 95. If you appreciate quality, yet are yearning for Charm this home is looking for its next steward.
