This meticulously maintained and truly unique home successfully manages to integrate the desirable combination of historic character and charm with thoughtful additions and recent state-of-the-art updates and improvements. The current owners have taken a home that was already a gem and turned it into an impressive masterpiece of refined country living, perfect for elegant indoor and outdoor entertaining in a lovely country setting. And while it is nicely situated on over 15 peaceful acres in a bucolic rural area, the home is also very convenient to all of life's pleasures and necessities--shopping, entertainment, restaurants, recreation and healthcare... and just 90 miles from NYC or Philadelphia! The present owners have made numerous improvements, from the state-of-the-art, professionally designed bathrooms to the magnificent, dine-in, gourmet kitchen--perfect for large gatherings of family and friends--to the installation of new kitchen windows and sliding doors, new garage doors, new central AC and automatic generator, new barn addition and barn windows, and additional fencing in the pastures. Horses? Chickens? Alpacas? The property has poultry coops, fenced pastures, riding trail, and a classic bank barn in excellent condition with four stalls, a tack room and a lavatory. Upstairs there's plenty of space for additional entertaining, storage, art studio or a home business. For almost ten years, the owners operated L'Eredita di Favale, a successful alpaca farm and crafts store. So, if you love animals, gourmet cooking, gracious entertaining, or simply the best that peaceful country life has to offer, this is the perfect property for you!
