Property Description
Rarely available historic home located in Unionville Village within walking distance to the Unionville post office and elementary school, this charming property has been completely updated to today's living standards while maintaining it's original charm and character. The original 48 acre property was deeded by William Penn, himself. The original part of the farmhouse, a 900 square foot log cabin, was built in 1776 (tax record shows 1764 but sellers believe that to be incorrect) and remains a central part of this home. Just under an acre, this property lives like it is 10+ acres as it backs up to 12 acres of preserved land. The main entry to the home is on the driveway side of the house and leads you into a welcoming foyer with the expansive Living Room just to your right with wonderful built ins and a huge picture window that brings the outdoor pool and gorgeous yard into the home; this is the perfect place to enjoy lovely conversation while keeping an eye on two and four legged friends in the pool area and backyard. Just off the foyer is a half bath, and then three steps lead up to the formal dining room. Gorgeous wide plank hardwood floors and an original wood burning fireplace make this a very cozy place to enjoy that extended family meal. Off the dining room is an enclosed sun room/library space with outside access which is currently being used a second home office. Beyond the dining room is a music room/den and the recently remodeled kitchen. Three steps down from the kitchen is an en-suite, MAIN FLOOR MASTER BEDROOM with its own outside entrance to the patio and pool area in the backyard. Just above the kitchen is the SECOND MASTER BEDROOM which its own completely updated bathroom and magnificent views of the fields and backyard oasis just beyond. On the other side of the house, accessible also by a second stair case, are two additional bedrooms, another full bathroom, and a second floor office. While the home has been updated and upgraded, it retains much of its historic charm featuring gorgeous wood paneled doors, stunning original beams, and historic fireplaces and beautiful wide plank floors. But the irresistible part of this property, is the absolutely stunning back yard and pool area complete with a gorgeous pond and well groomed landscaping and stunning, real stone hardscaping. Current owners have put on a new roof and installed new windows. All of this charm in the award winning Unionville School District and within historic Unionville Village just cannot be replicated. Come tour this amazing home today and once you set foot into the backyard, you will never want to leave.
