Property Description
Here’s your chance to own a beautiful and spacious historic turn-of-the-century home built in 1893. The amazing location is just a few blocks from the vibrant center of downtown Kennett Square with all its quaint shops, restaurants, new library and all the activities the town has to offer. Enjoy the views of the beautiful tree-lined street from the welcoming front porch of this wonderful classic brick Victorian twin home in the peaceful and quiet Northwest quadrant in the heart of one of Chester County’s best small towns. This beautiful home has been tastefully updated with modern amenities while preserving its charming character. As you enter from the porch with gingerbread details, you will be greeted with high ceilings, large bright windows, refinished original wood floors, deep woodwork and moldings, and a stunning original open staircase. There are so many classic period details in the home such as original built-in cabinet latches, transoms over some doors, iron floor register covers, and lovely thick banisters with massive newel posts. The spacious living room greets you as you enter the home and leads to the large dining room that is open to the new open and bright kitchen addition that includes generous custom cabinetry crafted by a local cabinet maker Christiana Cabinetry, beautiful soapstone counters, stainless appliances and counter seating. The kitchen addition blends seamlessly from both the inside and outside, adding functionality and period charm to the space. Off the dining room is a cozy den with a built-in bookcase and original glass doors for privacy. Other first floor conveniences are a full bath and a mudroom/laundry room. The second floor offers a large primary bedroom and three additional bedrooms. The full bath was expanded and updated with a lovely marble tile floor, a custom cabinet vanity with double sinks and a new tub/shower with a beautiful handcrafted tile enclosure. There is access to the third floor which provides the opportunity to refinish as additional living space with another bath. The professionally landscaped gardens with specimen plantings are a welcoming touch to this property. You will enjoy the fenced deep backyard with the slate patio for entertaining in the warm months. Since the owners took over the stewardship of this home seven years ago, they have made many tasteful updates that blend with the historic characteristics of the home, such as modern insulated windows that look like the original windows. All major construction and renovations were completed by Lindsay Construction of Chadds Ford which is known for custom fine period homes.
