Four Chimneys Farm, Unionville, Pennsylvania Less than a mile from the quaint village of Unionville, in the Brandywine Valley of Pennsylvania, sits one of the most uniquely crafted homes in historic southern Chester County. Enter the property into a white gravel motor court to a U shaped courtyard framed by horse pastures, beautiful gardens and mature trees. The home, which was constructed in 1978 with reclaimed 18th century fieldstone and wooden beams from the original period farmhouse, is modeled after a French hunting lodge. An imported French mahogany door welcomes you into the 4,825 sq ft. homes’ entrance with a sunken great room featuring a massive fireplace; one of 4 working fireplaces which inspired the name Four Chimneys Farm. The stone interior walls and spectacular 30 foot beamed ceiling are a nod to the original historic Kane Farm that once occupied the land. Adjacent to the great room is a modern kitchen with Viking Range, Sub Zero refrigerator, two dishwashers and two sinks. The kitchen also contains a mud room/sitting area and a cozy breakfast bar. A second stunning stone fireplace is the centerpiece of a spacious dining room with a vaulted ceiling and views of both the courtyard and gardens. A wood paneled library offers a third fireplace and boasts a wet bar with views of one of the horse pastures. The first floor primary suite is a private retreat in itself. Relax by the fireplace, while taking in the expansive views of the swimming pool and terrace overlooking the 49+ acre farm. The master bath features a large soaking tub, purposely placed within view of the horse fields, and a sizable glass shower with modern fixtures.
