Property Description
This classic stone, Herkness-built traditional home possesses an unspeakable amount of history, charm, and character while gracefully and thoughtfully including all the modern upgrades & conveniences one desires. Situated artfully in the middle of a primarily flat .64 acres of beautifully manicured, professionally landscaped yard, this home was truly meant for the owners to enjoy the most of each PA season. With Spring bringing an explosion of color and energy with the countless Azaleas and rhododendrons blooming around the yard. To Summers designed for outdoor grilling, dips in the pool, and snacking on vegetables grown from the garden. In the fall, the twirling leaves bring everchanging beauty which you can oversee from the four season sunroom and winters can be enjoyed next to one of the home's four fireplaces, snuggled up with a cup of hot chocolate watching snowflakes swirl. The main entrance of the home boasts a double hung dutch front door which opens to the sunlit living room, complete with a triple front window, cozy fireplace with marble surround, and hardwood floors that continue throughout most of the home. The living room opens to the dining room, sun porch, and private study creating an ideal flow for entertaining and hosting guests. The sun porch is drenched in natural light with walls of windows and skylights giving an incredible oversight of the yard and all the green vegetation it holds. Located next is the private study, which provides a quiet workspace with more built-in shelves, recessed lighting, and brick surround fireplace. The dining room gives a sense of elegance with the built-in china cabinets, open shelving, beverage bar and butlers pantry with backstairs to 2nd floor before flowing over to the kitchen. The updated, gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream, outfitted with 42 white cabinets, Viking 6-Burner Range, custom built-in Subzero refrigerator, granite counters, and designer tile backsplash. There is a laundry room off the kitchen and breakfast room with built-in seating before passing into the family room. The family room boasts vaulted ceilings, triple sliding glass doors, and quick access to the 1st floor powder room that is in an alcove between the family room & study. Up the stairs, the 2nd level provides 3 en suites, perfect for multi-generational living.

The 2nd owners en suite features an updated bath, double closets,one cedar, and wood burning fireplace.The 3rd and 4th bedrooms connect, sharing a bathroom, and feature adequate closet space with views of the property. These two rooms setback location could be an ideal space to create an in-law/ au pairs suite with a sitting room. The 2nd floor layout offers owners multiple options as 5th bedroom is a dressing room. Back down the staircase and stepping into the backyard, one is transported to a personal oasis. A flagstone patio located outside of the family room, accessible through sliding glass doors, is the perfect place to sit outside and eat with friends. Walking further back into the yard, there is a paver staircase which passes by a meticulously cared for rose/hydrangea garden, before leading up to a secluded, offset private pool and separate hot tub space. To the right, is the well maintained, updated, and heated Anthony pool with a commidious concrete surround, ideal for sun longing.
