Filled with character and history, Leaf Creek House has been brought beautifully into "today". Built pre-civil war, this gracious 4 Bedroom 2.5 Bath home with formal Living and Dining Rooms, large Family Room on 7+ acres with the Leaf Creek meandering through the property was used as a residence in the park like setting by the previous owner. Adding to it's charm, many of the original features were retained including the walk-in fireplace, 10'5" ceilings, one of a kind Mercer Tile fireplace, deep window sills, winding staircase, porches, original glass, hardware etc. and remain in tact. This property was in need of repair and up-dating when purchased by the current owner who made numerous up-grades and improvements including grounds cleanup to preserve the Sycamores, Magnolias and beautiful Japanese Maple trees. The interior improvements include structural repairs and electrical up-grades (two 200 amp boxes), a complete cosmetic updating (over 500 pounds of plaster used to repair walls), chimney repair, new historic paint colors that enhance the interior features throughout, new carpeting in areas, wood flooring refinished and painted, bathrooms up-dated, new expanded first floor powder room and new first floor laundry hook-up installed, updated kitchen and new front slate patio foundation re-paved with original slate. Two of the three heating systems (coal and oil) provide a heating choice to the new homeowner and a new hot water heater is in place. Propane heats the third floor which can be closed from the lower levels when not in use or if used for storage. The property offers an amazing lifestyle as a residence a retreat or as a business/office opportunity not usually found. It's close to major roads between King of Prussia and Reading and the surrounding areas. To fully appreciated this home and the work completed it needs to be seen in person.
