DIANNE PLATT

Description

LIVE, WORK, PLAY, ENTERTAIN, RIDE and RELAX in this beautiful sprawling home and 7.65 acre horse farm. A well-appointed sanctuary, with all the conveniences that make this home the perfect place to ….HAVE IT ALL! Situated at the end of a cul de sac close to Radnor Hunt and Ridley Creek State Park, this home offers peace, privacy, AND luxury, without sacrificing convenience. A 2-story, light-filled entryway offers a grand welcome and, as you move from room to room, you’ll find both finishing touches and views that will help you leave the pressured world behind. A large, bright GOURMET KITCHEN provides the convenience of sitting at the oversized center island to have a quick bite, or preparing meals for large group gatherings. Two sinks, two dishwashers, and two ovens, with granite countertops, a large pantry and a built-in desk area. Conveniently off the kitchen, find a back hallway with the first of 3 laundry rooms, a full bath, and a side door leading to the patio and pool with spa. From the kitchen, head into the formal dining room with stone fireplace and built-ins, to enjoy dinner with family or guests. To unwind, head into the great room, with vaulted ceilings and its own fireplace, complete with a custom wood and copper mantle. Follow the first floor MAIN HALL to step down to a sunken DEN for quiet conversation near another stone fireplace. Open French doors to a large SUNROOM with vaulted ceiling, radiant heat and large glass doors leading outside. This room offers extra space to use as you wish - a fun playroom, a peaceful yoga space or create an art studio. Tucked away behind the den, you’ll find a small custom powder room and step down yet again into the GAME ROOM! Built in bar and a pool table (that remains with the house) still leave plenty of room for extra seating or additional game tables. Continue back through the main hall to the PRIVATE OFFICE, mudroom and attached garage entry. Office has large windows, separate climate control and doors to both the hallway and to the backyard. A perfect work-from-home sanctum. The second floor boasts a primary suite with bedroom, walk-in “California” closet, bathroom with separate sunken tub, stone shower, and custom carved-wood vanities, as well as an extra area that can be used as a 2nd office, dressing room, or meditation space. Down the hallway are 4 more spacious bedrooms (one with its own en suite full bath), another full bath, as well as 2nd floor laundry room. Head outside to your animal's new home! The spacious, 6-stall, Mennonite-built barn is beautifully outfitted to host horses and goats. As a bonus, you’ll find a run-in shed, separate goat pasture, and a chicken coop. Additionally, this barn offers the conveniences of a heated Tack room, its own powder room AND the 3rd Laundry area! Storage cabinets with granite counters, wash stall with drainage, feed bin stall, auto fly-spray, and a pair of “Big Ass” brand fans. Each stall has automatic water refill and access to the small pen and then out to pastures. There is easy access to miles of trail riding at Radnor Hunt, Ridley and the Okehocking Preserve. And, if you are not busy enough with family and furry friends, this home is a gardeners paradise, with multiple raised beds ready to host your favorite plants or vegetables. Come see how this home has it all!
