About the Listing RMPROF - 3147525
A rare opportunity to own a beautifully crafted custom home set near the center of 23.4 acres with a wooded backdrop, and overlooking level, tillable pastures at the end of a long, level driveway. The setting is exceptionally private, with topography, distance, and mature plantings screening the home from the road. The peacefulness is unlikely to change, two sides of the property border the wooded perimeter of Warwick Park, where a discreet footpath leads to the Charcoal walking & riding trail, and the 91-acre farm across the street is preserved. For buyers seeking substantial acreage, this property stands out: unlike many large-lot homes that sit close to the road on challenging terrain, this property offers level pastures in the heart of horse country. Zoned Residential/Agricultural, it allows a home-based business, two-family dwelling, farm animals, and up to 22 horses, according to the attached zoning ordinance. A sizable chicken house with a run is included. The taxes are low via Act 319, and it is believed one subdivision may be permitted. Comparable lots of similar size in the same school district, without a house, are listed at $925,000 & $1,150,000, suggesting the potential to recover a significant portion of the purchase price by subdividing & selling a parcel, if desired. The craftsmanship & vintage character of this 25-year-old Chester County homestead would be difficult to reproduce. The hand-hewn log home, bank barn, and stone walls create the feel of a centuries-old estate, while the 24x24 three-sided carport blends seamlessly with the setting. Inside, the open floor plan features ultra-wide random width flooring & soaring cathedral ceiling. Post-and-beam structural elements complement the stone fireplace, and the wood interior surfaces have been meticulously sanded smooth. The kitchen features custom cabinetry, granite countertop, 7-foot extra deep stainless sink sourced from Texas and opens to the great room. The home includes a spacious main-level bedroom & an upper-level bedroom suite with a clawfoot tub. The 23x15 loft could also accommodate two standard bedrooms or one large bedroom with a smaller loft area. The partially finished basement is warm & dry with superior exterior walls, 9-foot ceilings, and daylight walkout to a brick porch & adjoining stone patio, giving it a bright, comfortable feel. It also includes a custom bar/kitchen rough-in with walnut cabinets and sink provisions, along with a large powder room rough-in for a future shower - ideal for an in-law suite, family room, or additional bedrooms. The home is thoughtfully positioned to face southwest, allowing the 8x40 porch to shade the interior in summer while welcoming warm natural light in winter. Rather than traditional gutters, an in-ground drainage system directs roof runoff into the woods, except for small gutter over the front walk. Additional features include central vacuum & an exceptional heating system with multi-zone radiant floor heat in the basement, main level, and upper level. The bank barn's main level also has radiant floor heat, while the upper level uses radiators on the same system, and the carport has a rough-in for radiant heat if garage doors are added. Heating is supplied by either an oil-fired boiler or a wood-fired boiler. The wood-fired boiler is located in a handy 13x10 firewood storage room separated from the bank barn by a masonry wall. This smart setup allows either heat source to serve all buildings, with simple valve controls to heat selected buildings/areas as needed. The lower level of the 28x34, 2.5-car bank barn garage has 9’6” ceilings, two 10x8 insulated garage doors, power openers, and a sink. The upper level is insulated & drywalled, with a floor built from 1.75-inch tongue-and-groove planks topped with 3/4-inch plywood for a total thickness of 2.5 inches, likely suitable for hay, farm equipment, vehicle storage, accessed through a 10x8 insulated garage door cleverly concealed behind a barn door
