GENTLEMAN'S FARMETTE WITH EXTRAORDINARY AMENITIES...walk to Skippack Village, and return to this private retreat gracefully restored and updated home with a new addition that will steal the heart of a culinary talent. Honed granite kitchen counter tops was the perfect choice in keeping with the 1880's farm home; newer stainless steel appliances and a walk-in pantry with wine cooler are just a few of the extras. Renown architect, Ellen Happ, AIAA, designed the historically correct first floor addition with fireplace & radiant floors. You are instantly at home in this gourmet kitchen over looking the walk-in pool. Out-buildings include a carriage-house with an enormous work/wood shop that features a second floor office/designated space yet to be named. A separate three-car garage, chicken coop, barn, and greenhouse complete the accessory buildings. The newer barn has running water with 3 horse stalls -- a genuine gentleman's farm. With riding trails across the street, you don't even need to own a horse trailer! Completely updated bathrooms, huge closets, first floor laundry, and a bonus room featuring hardwood floors -- sized generously enough for a pool table; the choice is yours as to how to best use them. Unless you plan to stay more than 100 years, the newer slate roof will keep you dry. Over a 20 year period of ownership, admirers and former residents have stopped to reminisce about this special place -- a little bit of heaven on earth.
