Property Description
Built in 1910 this home has a long history. At one time the home was on the Pennsylvania Rail Road New Holland Branch. Stories have been told that this house was a stop on the train. The home has been used as a tobacco store. It was a furniture store at one point with the sign still on the home when it was purchased. If you are interested in a home with a rich history, able to fish off the back porch but have every modern amenity then there are few homes like this one. This home has been meticulously restored. The home was ripped down to the main support frame and built back up with a new floor plan and everything new. New central manifold pex water plumbing. New electric panel and wiring including full house GFCI and arch fault breakers. New dual zone heating and cooling with dual Google Nest thermostats that allows you to control the heating and air conditioning remotely from an app. Nest is the foundation to add additional smart home electronic accessories. Most new construction does not even come with Nest Thermostats. To maintain the character and history of the home many built ins were installed, and the restoration of one of the doors, that is now in the kitchen, as a pantry door on a barn door rider. To make sure the home has a good chance to last another 100 years, high quality 3/4" hard wood flooring, tile and quality carpets were installed. No laminate in this house. New roofing shingles should give you 25+ years peace of mind. (their warranty). Pella efficient double hung double pane windows and new attic and wall insulation will keep the house energy efficient. To provide additional space and safety for vehicles a new large 2 car garage was installed. The garage has an electric sub-panel and 2 garage door openers and a side entrance door. The home sits high off the water and even in the worst flooding this last year the water was over 5 ft below the basement. Downingtown school district has gone a 5th straight year without increasing school taxes and provides exceptional opportunities like the STEM Academy.
