Situated on 1.3 acres in the heart of Malvern, this Farmhouse is truly a special home. Originally built somewhere between 1730-1770, a Kitchen addition added in the 1930's and remodeled in the 1980's, a gable addition in the 1940's, and a Family Room in the 1990's make this home great for modern living. The original stone house features a walk-in fireplace with an iron crane, a built-in cherry cupboard, and a random-width hardwood floor. The Living Room area is complete with a fireplace with a 1700's mantel and bookcase. The Kitchen boasts a vaulted ceiling, fireplace, 2 skylights and a brick floor. There is a Dining Area overlooking a Solarium with 3 walls of windows and 3 skylights. The Family Room off of the Kitchen has a vaulted ceiling and 4 skylights as well as a large coat closet/pantry. There is a sunken wine cellar in the Family Room that used to be the ice pit for the 1700's house. There is a main floor Laundry and Powder Room. The second floor Primary Bedroom showcases a stone wall, a walk-in closet and a Full Bath with shower and double sink vanity. A second set of stairs leads to 2 additional second floor Bedrooms and a Full Bath. With it's many windows and skylights, sunshine abounds throughout this wonderful home. Step outside where you will find a flat corner lot with beautiful landscaping. The in-ground 20k gallon pool/spa is set back nicely from the main home. There is a one-car standalone garage with an attached shed shop which could also be used to house a small horse, pony, or donkey. This home is conveniently located just minutes from shops, restaurants, the Chester Valley Trail and Paoli Train Station. This very special home and property are truly a gem!
