Bittersweet Farm is a wonderful balance between country casual and sophisticated elegance. The Federal home welcomes you with a 2-story center hall and links the 18th century section with the 21st century portion. There are many features for todayâs lifestyle including a gourmet kitchen with pizza oven, great entertainment room and main bedroom suite (with personal sauna and walk-in closets) yet the home has kept the charm of its wooden floors, exposed beams and cozy fireplaces along with other architectural details. An expansive stone terrace, with food station and built-in grill, overlooks gardens and leads to a tranquil pool and original tennis court. There is a manageable 5 stall barn with tack room, powder room and washer/dryer. An additional 5 stalls can be easily added in the current, large turn out which leads to paddock/pastures. A large storage area above the barn could potentially be used for carriages or a car collection. The property is complete with a 4-car garage with 2-bedroom apartment above. The idyllic country setting is balanced with being minutes from shopping, schools, golf courses and an array of international equestrian events. If one still needs to travel, the proximity to major arteries allows it to be minutes to Wilmington Amtrak and under 45 minutes to Philadelphia airport. The 34 +/- acres are eased within an area of similarly eased properties in the Cheshire Hunt country and an area celebrated for its extraordinary preservation accomplishments. Enjoy the country lifestyle at Bittersweet!
