Rarely does a property such as this become available. Words can always describe the structures and setting, but to appreciate what it has to offer you must experience it in person. This five acre property in Thornbury Township was originally part of the Cheyney Estate. Along with the close proximity to town amenities, you have expansive amounts of breathing room to savor all of the history that surrounds you. A portion of the main residence dates back to approximately 1740, and if those stone walls could talk, can you just imagine what you would learn? You approach the home along a private driveway and the landscaped roundabout. You are immediately surrounded by a plethora of beauty created by the abundance of mature perennials and flowering trees. Throughout the spring, summer and fall they will continue to surprise and delight your senses with a continuous burst of color and new life. This beauty delivers you to the front entrance of the main residence where the first floor boasts an open concept living room, dining room, small alcove with built in cabinets, and family room that is predominantly windows inviting you to delight in the vast views. Completing the first floor is the kitchen and breakfast room, guest bedroom, and primary suite with stained glass windows and hand hewn beams, a walk-in shower, dressing room, walk-in closet and access to the rear deck. If you are looking for a one floor living option, you’ve found it! Continuing to the second floor you will be greeted by an open transitional space with skylights that screams reading nook. There is a large bedroom with ample closet space, a hall bath with an imported onyx pedestal sink, another good size bedroom, and finally the bonus room with private access to the outside.

On this level there is also a full bath, sauna, laundry room with storage and pantry space. Finally on this level is access to a two car garage to house your classic cars. There is another surprise treat before we venture on - an attached, one bedroom apartment with a separate entrance in the rear. Think in-laws, guests, nanny, etc. Continuing our journey outside, you will first encounter the stone icehouse which was built in the 18th century. It has electricity, a small gas stove, and a waterfall (depending upon that years water table) gracing one of the inside stone walls. Just imagine relaxing here with your favorite beverage at the end of a long day. Better yet, the downstairs has the potential for your personal wine cellar with it’s year round temperature that remains close to 55 degrees.
