An incredible opportunity to own a home built by the highly respected Curt Bagnall, originally for the Bagnalls personal residence. Built in 1978, the historic John Chad house in Chadds Ford was used as inspiration. The quality of the construction is beyond compare. The exterior of this period home features solid brick and stone walls, classic cedar shake roof, two patios (one brick, one stone) and covered porch. The attention to detail continues upon entering the quintessential home with random width, custom milled red oak floors (with walnut stain), wainscotting, crown moldings and hardware from Monroe Coldren and Ball and Ball - both historic home purveyors of the highest caliber. The charming kitchen features granite counters, beamed ceiling, high-end appliances and a walk-in fireplace. The formal living room has custom cabinetry, accent lighting, a wood fireplace and a special wine closet. For more relaxed occasions there is a great room with a brick floor and a wood fireplace. There are a total of 3 bedrooms, each with features consistent with this period home, including one with a gas fireplace for a cozy reading nook on a winter day. Additional amenities that make this home so very current include updated baths, central air and a at-home office in the finished walk-out day light basement. The detached garage has a well-finished, ample space for cars and mowers, while the upstairs loft is the perfect studio, storage or hobby room. The property is further complemented by a Koi pond, period split rail fencing, brick and stone paths, and natural terrain. Every feature is designed to transcend one into another more tranquil era. Revel in the country road that is Powell Road... enjoy the large equine properties, lovely views while being equi-distant to The Laurels Preserve (a 771 ac private preserve with 2 covered bridges) and ChesLen Preserve (a 1,250 acre public preserve). Rarely does an impeccably designed and maintained home like this come available and all near shopping, schools- the top ranked Unionville Chadds Ford School District- and commuting to train stations.
