Styer Real Estate

Have you ever dreamed of owning a piece of Chester County history? This stunning, reimagined 1763 Colonial American farmhouse has been painstakingly and professionally renovated from the ground up. The greater Delaware River Valley was disproportionately settled by German and northern European immigrants, who brought a distinctive style in their home design known as Pennsylvania Dutch. This style of architecture emphasized simplicity, clean lines, and minimal flourishes of detail. Construction methods for these homes included thick, fieldstone walls with timber frame interiors and hand-hewn beams. Steeply pitched gable roofs, like the ones seen on this home, with dormers were also quite common. In addition to the rich history of the original structure, there was also a beautiful two story addition added to this home that artistically blends modern amenities with classical Chester County farm home. We will begin our journey through the original structure of the home, entering through the front door. You are instantly transported back to the 18th century with the quintessential living room with exposed beams and large wood burning fireplace. You can go downstairs into the finished basement where there is another large wood burning fireplace as well as the mechanical room. Between both rooms you can only imagine what it was like to spend time there throughout the centuries relaxing by the fire on those chilly mornings and nights. Journeying up to the second and third floors are the two original bedrooms which both have exposed beams and been fully carpeted and painted. Also, included in the original structure on the first floor is the redesigned office space which has a gorgeous half bath that Chip and JoJo would fawn over. Now, onto the new structure that was added to this home. The first thing you will notice upon entering the driveway is the oversized two car garage which adds so much convenience that you do not normally get in an older home. You can enter through the garage into the first floor that opens up in the dining room and your new kitchen. The kitchen has so much to offer with stainless steel appliances, white quartz countertops, two tone shaker cabinets, and a large white farm sink. This is the ideal place to enjoy a night of cooking with friends and family. There is also a hallway on the first floor that leads into your new laundry closet and additional storage under the stairs. Now we will journey upstairs in the new addition where the third bedroom is located as well as the primary suite. The primary suite is a real show stopper. With a stunning en suite, a huge lounge/sleeping area that has a unique accent wall and a large walk-in closet, there is nothing more you can ask for! All of this sits on over 4 lush acres of land set in a peaceful and serene setting in the heart of Downingtown. You are only a short drive to the Borough, Marsh Creek, the Struble Trail, and so much more. You do not want to miss out on this amazing opportunity so make your appointment now!
