Exceptional home built on a grand scale in Garnet Valley School District! This home has 6 Bedrooms, 4 full Baths, almost 5000 sq ft, on 5.7 acres with a barn, all across from preserved open space. This stately home is ready for new loving owners to make this their dream home. Custom built in 1976 by and for the current owners, this home has many special features. The full brick exterior is timeless, with french style details. The elegant double front door leads to a wide, 2 storey, circular center hall with a tiled floor and a graceful sweeping staircase. Huge front closets flank the entry. The living room is a generous 20x16 feet with built in shelves, crown molding and a marble surround fireplace. The dining room is similarly sized with crown molding, chair rail, and springing doors to the kitchen. The Kitchen is HUGE and has dark wood cabinets, a built in desk and butler pantry area, a very large island, and room for a very long table. The kitchen also has an exit to the back deck and shares a double sided-brick fireplace with the family room. The bricks that make up the double sided fireplace between the kitchen and family room come from the old Connie Mack Stadium! The family room has a wet bar built in an alcove, a beamed ceiling, built in shelves, a window seat with storage, and a 3 section sliding door to the deck. Behind the kitchen a hallway leads to a large laundry/mud room, an exit to the 3 car garage, and ground floor bedroom and full bathroom. The main floor bedroom and bath allow for 1-level living and have potential for an in-law or au-pair suite. Upstairs, there's a wide circular landing/balcony leading to 5 bedrooms and 3 more full bathrooms. The main bedroom is 20x17 ft. It includes 4 closets and access to the attic storage over the garage. There is a dressing area with a sink, and the Main bathroom has 2 sinks, a stall shower, and separate soaking tub. 4 additional bedrooms are all generously sized, with ample closets. Two full hall baths complete the 2nd floor. A large walk-in storage closet on the landing leads to a staircase to walk up to the attic. The attic is full height, and fully floored, making for excellent storage or more finished space in the future. The walk-out, daylight basement of this custom built home still has tremendous potential. High ceilings allow for finishing with full height. A Brick fireplace is ready to become central for entertaining or a man cave. Sliding doors on this level lead to the back patio. There is also plumbing ready for another bathroom. The basement is accessed by 2 separate stairways, one from the center hall and one from the back hall near the laundry room. Outside, on 5.7 beautiful acres, mature trees complement the classic home and a 5 stall horse barn with a huge loft could be refurbished for horses or as a workshop for other hobbies. The house also has a 3 car attached garage and a driveway with space for several vehicles. Heater is new in 2018. Subdivision of 1 or 2 lots may be possible.
