Description

NEW PRICE! This charming stone farmhouse, nestled on 2.1 acres within its own nature preserve, offers a picturesque setting. Imagine watching bald eagles, herons, and other wildlife right from your home along the banks of Red Clay Creek. The property boasts a welcoming front porch with views of the creek and open space, surrounded by beautifully landscaped roses, peonies, and hydrangeas. Built in 1740, this historic home exudes character and old-world charm! Dutch doors lead to a newly renovated gourmet kitchen featuring a wood-burning stove and an island—a perfect spot for culinary creativity. On the main floor, you’ll find a formal living room, a dining room, and a cozy den with a fireplace and wood-burning stove. Completing the first floor is a mudroom and a convenient half bath. Upstairs, the second floor houses the primary bedroom with a full bath and dressing room and a back stair to a third floor sitting room. There are two additional bedrooms and another hall bath. For added convenience, there’s a second-floor laundry area. The third floor offers yet another bedroom and an office or bonus room. Recent updates include a new well and well pump, a septic system installed in 2015, a fresh cedar shake roof, and a standing seam roof above the dormers (at the back of the house). The interior and exterior have been newly painted, and new storm doors were added in 2023—making this home move-in ready! Additional amenities include a detached four-car carport, a vegetable garden, and a chicken coop with a pen. Located conveniently near Kennett and Delaware, this property provides easy access to shopping, restaurants, and more.
