Property Description
This classic 4br, 2bth farmhouse was built in 1867 & has been lovingly maintained by the owners since 1966 & has many original details. The wide, welcoming front porch accommodates chairs & benches to enjoy being outdoors. Upon entering, you'll appreciate the original pine wide-width hardwood floors throughout the home, deep window sills, wavy glass, original wood trim, & vertical paneled wood doors on each of the 3 floors. The custom bookcase, cabinet & antique wood mantel enhance the brick fireplace in the living room, which allows for a gas-burning fireplace insert from the newly-run gas line. There is a lovely formal dining room that is graced with built-in corner china cupboards for extra storage & display. Beyond the living room is the 25' by 27' rear extension w/open floor plan, filled w/natural light from 4 skylights & 18 custom windows, allowing a spacious view of the expansive yard, perennial gardens & custom storage sheds. This includes the gourmet open kitchen, & has original & custom-built cabinets w/raised panel doors, providing plenty of storage & open work space, as well as double wall ovens, 6-burner/grill stove top w/down-draft, Stainless Steel Appliances & an amazing custom pantry w/swing out shelves that will store so much more than you could imagine! The counter tops are a mix of Corian & maple butcher block, which houses the cook top. The bright, relaxing family area, w/an installed wood stove chimney to accept a wood-burning or gas stove, a full bath with mosaic tile floor, glass shower, Corian sink & skylight, several closets & a mudroom entrance complete the space. There is a split A/C unit that cools the 1st floor & a large soffit around the roof that offers warmth from the low winter sun to warm the terra cotta tile & shade from the summer sun. The 2nd floor has 2 good sized bedrooms w/deep closets. The extra large, sunny full bath doubles as a laundry room, & has many built-in cabinets & a large, custom linen closet. The Kohler fixtures are original white porcelain, w/new subway tiles & wainscoting, & a skylight. The 3rd floor has 2 more bedrooms w/walk-in closets, including a cedar closet, one w/2 skylights! There is a new, high-efficiency Weil-McClain heater & attached garage w/driveway. Only a minute away from Tookany Creek Park, w/trails for walking, biking, bird watching and fishing! This combination of new conveniences & historic detail, adds to the feeling that you are living in part of Cheltenham history.
