Property Description
Why live in a reproduction Chester Co. Farmhouse when you can live in an original? Fully renovated by renowned architect Ann Ledger, this historic gem sits on 2 acres in Tredyffrin. Starting out its life as a Sunday School in 1720 ... 57 years BEFORE George Washington joined his troops at Valley Forge, just a mile and a half away! The original 1 room school (now the dining room) was expanded in the 18th century to include a large living room with built-in chimney cupboards, fireplace, window pay drawer; front to back hallway for light and breeze; large original 6 over 9 windows and 18" window sills. The second floor of the 18th century incarnation has 2-3 bedrooms (one with a fireplace) all with deep window sills and hand blown glass window panes, plus baths. In 2006, Ann Ledger renovated this home making it ideal for today's buyer. The recent addition includes a custom "Current Works" kitchen featuring hand built cabinetry, large center island with seating and storage galore; soapstone counters and extra deep farm sink, Thermador Professional range and Micro, fully integrated Suz-Zero refrigerator with Bosch dishwasher, pot filler, glass front cabinets and walk-in pantry. The open concept family room/great room has French doors to large patio for summer escape and for chilly nights, a 48" Rumford fireplace; walk-in hall closet, powder room, and mudroom complete this floor.This home is perfect for entertaining with a walk-in butler's pantry with copper sink, 2nd dishwasher, beverage frig and wine frig. The second floor addition includes a large master bedroom with vaulted ceiling, his and hers dressing rooms, ensuite bath with large walk-in shower, double vanities, separate toilet room, standing soaking tub plus a sitting room with a gas fireplace. The laundry area on the second floor has a beverage area with frig..no need to go downstairs for that cup of Joe! The renovation also expanded a third floor space into a large bedroom with en suite bath yet maintained ample attic space for storage. There is a work space in the basement as well as a potting shed and storage shed on the property...Also a covered front porch, perfect, for catching the breeze on hot summer days while looking out over the stone enclosed courtyard - a perfect venue for outdoor entertaining...it has even hosted a wedding! Home has appeared on the Tredyffin Historic House Tour; in Chesapeake Magazine plus won the Historical Architectural Review Board's Historical Prop. Award
