301 KENNETT PIKE Chadds Ford, PA 19317

Renovated Art-lovers' hide-away! This lovely and bright four-bedroom contemporary is located in Kennett Township, known for its excellent school system, and sits on almost two acres featuring carefully-tended lawns, gardens, specimen trees and bushes as well as a wooded area with native plants. The glazed formal entrance, designed by Betsy Wyeth, has a wonderful atrium feel. Casual visitors park in the circular driveway, near the three-car garage, and enter through the open-design, extensively-glazed kitchen, featuring chopping block and stainless steel counters, a GE gas-convection stove, a pantry and wonderful views of the garden. The house, with three working fireplaces, has been well maintained and offers unique features, such as an elegant reception room and a dining room complete with built-in cupboards from the 1700s and hand-painted wood graining. The large, cathedral-ceilinged den is naturally lit by a huge Palladian window and a glass sliding door accessing a patio with a pergola. The first floor also includes a large bay-windowed bedroom and full bath, complete with a unique, Italian marble pedestal sink. A sizable hall with built-in bookcases gives access to the basement and second-floor stairways. Upstairs the large "prairie style" master bedroom suite with fireplace includes windows on four sides. On the same floor are two more bedrooms and a second bath. The basement was completely renovated in 2018 and features a walk in, climate-controlled wine cellar (for 200+ bottles) and a large walk-in cedar closet as well as plenty of open space. Along with a full-house generator and two separate (gas) heating and air conditioning systems, the property has an on-site septic system and public water. Sculptures and other artwork located on the property are not included, but certain pieces may be available upon request.
