About This Home
An ideal home for healthy, peaceful living in Longwood Estates, a safe established community in the Chadds Ford area, and home to top-ranked school districts. In addition, this home offers several valuable remodeled features not found in many nearby properties: 1. Chemical-free landscape (0.7 acres) with young organic fruit trees, safe for people, pets and gardening. We have never sprayed the land or trees with any pesticides or chemicals so it is completely non-toxic for pets playing in the yard and for planting/gardening. 2. A large, private and peaceful backyard with mature and locally significant specimen trees such as Sugar Maple, Walnut, White Pine, Cedar, Hemlock, and Persimmon fruit trees, and a small fenced area containing a playset, ideal for pets or chickens. 3. Connected to natural gas and municipal water, not common in the area (a $30,000 value). Well water is still available too. 4. New metal roofing installed in 2023 (a $25000 value), known to last for $70+ years, 2-3 times the lifespan of asphalt shingles. 5. Insulated and heated sunroom with 360-degrees of premium wooden-frame Pella windows, with utility as an area for work, study, play, exercise or host guests (A $30,000 value). 6. Fully finished lower level with a ping-pong table (optional to keep) which can also be used for storage, or as a guest or game room. There is direct access to the garage which offers additional crawl-space storage, or workshop opportunities. 7. Chemical, and pet-free living areas inside: Only non-toxic cleaners used and shoes always removed prior to entering, leaving the hardwood floors in good shape. 8. The 3rd bedroom upstairs is currently fitted with an ergonomic home office or study room with premium solid, cherry desk space that offers cabinet space as well as bookshelves. This home, situated away from the road, faces a large wooded estate and not crowded busy commercial or residential developments. The large front casement window opens to a beautiful cross view of trees/nature. Other attractive features include: Quality hardwood floors and beautiful natural light coming through the large living room window, beautiful oak cabinets and granite countertops in the partially open kitchen, ideal for food preparations or breakfast conversations without disturbing other rooms. Directly next to the kitchen is the dining room which makes it easy when hosting holidays or game nights. Upstairs is where you will find three (3) bedrooms with matching hardwood floors and numerous closets, and a full bathroom with a window. You have the option to keep some furniture items and fixtures if it saves you time and money on your move and initial furniture purchase. This house is only minutes from the world renowned Longwood Gardens and the Brandywine Valley region, and allows easy access to shops and restaurants (in Kennett Square or Wilmington), Rt 52, Rt. 1, Philadelphia and nearby towns in Maryland.
