Property Description
Open house is cancelled, property is now under contract. Please call agent with any questions. Beautiful Mendenhall Contemporary Farmhouse located in the historic Thornbury Township. Blantyre is an enclave of 11 luxury custom homes built by Megill Homes all set on 1+ acre lots with 10 acres of community property and walking trails leading to the adjacent Palmer Arboretum. Discerning buyers will appreciate the natural PA fieldstone inside and out, covered front stone porch, extensive custom trim work, abundance of windows, the beautiful entrance with a front to back foyer and two staircases to the second floor. This 5 bedroom, 5.2 bath home is situated in the historic and popular Brandywine Valley and award winning West Chester Schools and in close proximity to many historical attractions, battle fields, golf courses, pool clubs, museums, open space and much more. The “Mendenhall Farmhouse” is an original “Ann Capron” custom design featuring a long front stone porch to greet guests, a large front to back foyer with a grand staircase with turned landing and a rear staircase for privacy and convenience. The entire first floor has site-finished hardwoods with custom woodworking and custom molding throughout. The kitchen forms the center of the home with a family room with wood burning field stone fireplace and morning room overlooking the level backyard. This unique floor plan provides separate access from the morning room and the rear foyer directly to the rear patios, custom hardscaping and the large level rear yard. The backyard is an entertainer’s oasis and a quiet retreat with plenty of lounge seating in two patio areas, one with a custom built gazebo and stone fireplace, and the other featuring a custom hardscaping with stone counter tops with an enclosure for a grill, refrigerator and storage. Plenty of room for a future pool. Inside, on the main level there is much more including a butler’s pantry leading to the formal dining room large enough for the most elegant gatherings. Adjacent to the dining room and across the front foyer is the formal living room perfect for the holidays with a gas fireplace, custom mantle and plenty of windows. Just off the rear foyer is a large private study. For convenience two part baths are located at either end of the home. Just a short walk up the front grand staircase, the second floor includes a large primary suite with sitting room, more custom woodworking and built in bookcases, 2 walk-in closets with closet systems and a luxury bath with double vanity, soaking tub and large tile shower. Down the hall there are 4 additional large guest rooms and the large second floor laundry at the end of the hall. Bedrooms two and three share a jack and jill bath.

Completing the second floor is a rare rear stair case for quick access down to the kitchen and first level. Another signature feature of this home is the incredible custom finished basement with plenty of room for entertainment. With 2 exterior entrances this finished area was designed with custom woodworking, including reclaimed wood and meticulous attention to detail.
