Historic Farmhouse renovated with all the conveniences for modern life. This Farmhouse was built in the 1870's. The Renovation in 2006 won the architect the 2010 Merit Design Award from Delaware AIA. A gourmet kitchen serves as the center of this wonderful home. The kitchen features Shaker-style cabinets, a large white farmhouse sink, a Wolf 6 burner gas range surrounded by a backsplash with handmade tiles. The Kitchen also has French Doors that open onto the wrap around porch. The porch leads to the beautifully landscaped 1.5 acre yard which features: flowering cherry trees, azaleas, forsythia, rhododendrons, and a magnolia tree. The backyard has a old stone fireplace with patio area perfect for entertaining. The farmhouse has many amenities for the active family: central air, 2nd floor laundry rm, 2 Bedrooms on 3rd fl. with shared bath, master suite with dressing area & full bath. The renovation kept the farmhouse charm: solid wood interior doors, beautiful wood floors through-out with random wide plank peg floors on 1st floor, graceful American Chestnut banister, plaster walls. Den and study were used as a professional office with waiting room. The rooms can also be converted into a in-law suite. The outside of the home is covered with Hardie planks which looks like cedar wood but wears like iron. There is a detached 2-car oversized garage. Perfect property for storage of boat or RV, lots of parking for car enthusiasts. Home is minutes from new Septa Claymont Rail Station, I-95, and Philadelphia airport. Must be seen to be appreciated.
