    What's special

    Welcome to The Newlin House at Happy Hollow Farm. This 18th Century 5 Bedroom 2 Bathroom Farmhouse is absolutely overflowing with Chester County Charm and upgraded with high-end modern amenities for easy living. A nature-lover's sanctuary, this home is located on 4.9 beautiful acres and is just across the road from a 13-acre land preserve. The sense of peace and quiet this property provides will remain forever. Rare is it that you can find this kind of privacy so close to the great shopping and dining you'll have access to in Historic West Chester Borough, just 10 minutes away! As you pull into the driveway you'll notice the gorgeous German siding, the many windows, and the large wrap-around porch with cedar shake roof. You'll also see the Guest House at the end of the driveway with panoramic Pella windows, wood siding, and 1 car garage. Entering through the front door, you'll take in the ceilings with exposed beams, the beautiful hardwoods, and the wainscoting that the Family Room displays. Passing through the broad entry into the Eat-in Kitchen, the cathedral ceilings with skylights and the Andersen windows let in abundant natural light. The large center Island has a granite top and the surrounding countertops are complete with Corian. There is a 5-burner Viking gas range, Subzero refrigerator, double wall oven, and custom wood cabinetry. The Dining room is stunning with wide-plank hardwoods, deep curved window sills, and a wide entry with pocket doors that leads into the Formal Living Room. The Living Room also has wide-planked hardwoods and a wood-burning fireplace and provides access to the second floor. Upstairs you'll find 3 generously sized bedrooms with lots of charm and plenty of windows. The Master is complete with wide-plank hardwoods, its own wood fireplace, and plenty of closet space. On the third floor you'll find a bonus room for office space or play, two large bedrooms with exposed beams and wide-plank hardwoods, and a full bath. The Guest House was constructed as a luxury office space with two finished floors and a full bath. The first floor has Brazilian mahogany floors and Douglas fir plank walls and finished and natural cherry accents give the space an irresistible feeling of warmth. The second floor has Douglas fir floors and has incredible views of the creek and pond. This piece of history is move-in ready! 1 Year Home Warranty Included. 2018-12-27
