The current homeowners purchased this 2.04-acre lot when only 2 lone trees stood amidst a field of weeds. They then built, and lovingly maintained, their 3,400sqft, 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home. The cedar wood & stone exterior mesh perfectly with the greens of the natural landscape. The welcoming front entry foyer ushers you into the living room, which hosts exposed ceiling beams, stone-surround wood-burning fireplace & floor to ceiling windows that offer expansive views of the perfectly manicured landscaping & man-made ponds. Continued on this main level, you will find the formal dining room, with a pass-through window to the wet bar in the kitchen. The eat-in kitchen, which is naturally lit from the central sky light, is spacious & offers center island cooking & seating, Corian countertops, tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances & plenty of storage in clean, white cabinetry. Through sliding glass doors from the kitchen, &/or the living room, you can continue to enjoy the expansive views from the solarium, which contains tile flooring over concrete that captures the heat from the sun in the winter months. From the solarium, you have access to the rear deck. On the upper level of the home, you will find a generously sized Master Suite that includes a separate seating area, a private deck that overlooks the beautiful gardens & private master bath with double sinks, as well as 3 additional well-appointed bedrooms & full hall bath with soaking tub. As you move towards the lower level of the home, you will find a custom designed hobby room, laundry room & oversized 2 car-garage which has additional space that could fit a 3rd vehicle. The family room, found on the lower level, provides walk-out access to the rear patio, a wet bar, recessed lighting & flows through to the game room, which could easily be utilized as a 5th bedroom. To finish off the lower level, there is a full bath with soaking tub & adjacent to the game room, through glass panel French doors, you will find a private office. Once outside the home, you will be able to enjoy the blooming gardens that have been thoughtfully carved into the scenery and include colorful flowers and plants varying in colors, textures & height. The stocked pond is connected to neighboring ponds by a small stream to keep the water flowing & have been ice-skated on during cold winter months. Centreville is an 18th Century village that is listed in the National Register of Historic Places & is close to boutique shopping & a wide array of dining options. This must-see home is just 30 minutes from Philadelphia, within 2 hours of the beach, the mountains & both New York City & Washington, DC & just a short drive to Wegman's & Trader Joe's.
