Description

Located on one of the most beautiful streets in Devon, this stately home combines all the elegance and charm of the Mainline. The circular driveway and lush landscaping are the perfect backdrop to the dramatic entrance with flagstone steps. You almost feel as though you are entering a European villa as you stand outside the front door. It is easy to picture your guests entering the grand foyer with its sweeping staircase. Notice the detailed millwork throughout the home and two coat closets. To your right is the formal dining room, large enough to accommodate seating for twelve. To your left, step down into the formal living room with a gas fireplace and pristine oak flooring. What a beautiful room! Straight ahead leads to the heart of the home, a magnificent kitchen and family room. This versatile gathering space is ideal for entertaining. Whether you are hosting a party or just a tv night at home with the family, this is the room all will gravitate towards. This spectacular room includes a tray ceiling, multiple built-ins throughout, surround sound, window seat with drawers and a floor to ceiling double-sided stone wood-burning fireplace. A wall of windows overlooks the backyard and sliders lead to the patio. Two different areas of the room can be used for casual dining. The current owners love dining in front of the fireplace in the winter. Step up into the chef's kitchen with custom cabinetry, granite countertops, Thermador appliances, Sub Zero refrigerator and wine fridge, two Bosch dishwashers, a coffee bar, wine bar, large pantry and informal counter seating. Located off the kitchen is a powder room, a laundry area with a built-in desk, a "doggy bath" for the resident pooch, access to the patio and backyard and a back staircase. A mudroom features five lockers and a window seat with storage and easy access to the three-car garage and driveway. There is a place for everything in this organized household! Another powder room and very private office with a gas fireplace and bright windows are off the family room. Not to be missed is the covered flagstone patio overlooking the stunning park-like setting of the expansive fenced backyard with mature trees and flower beds. There is also a storage shed for gardening tools and machinery. Sitting on this patio with a glass of wine in hand and something on the grill, is the ultimate relaxing summer evening! Upstairs is the primary suite, resplendent with a built-in bookcase, fireplace and luxurious ensuite bathroom with heated tile flooring, double vanity and steam shower. You will not be able to live without the "his and hers" walk-in closets with built-ins and the dressing/makeup vanity with drawers. Truly a luxurious retreat! Down the hall, there are four other well-appointed bedrooms with large closets, each room delightful in its own way. All rooms have ceiling fans. Two rooms share a double vanity bathroom with a glass-enclosed shower. A bonus room between these rooms is ideal for a study area, yoga space or just extra storage. A hall bath with a double vanity, tub and heated tile flooring completes the floor. The finished basement is large enough for a workout/play/gaming area. A large cedar closet is ideal for winter clothing storage and there is a full bath with a shower. All utilities are housed in the basement with plenty of additional storage space. A whole house generator is included. The home is located near major commuter routes, train stations, golf courses, shopping and restaurants. Even though you will be in the award-winning Easttown School District, there are also many outstanding private schools in the area. Do not miss this very special opportunity to own one of the Mainline's finest!
