Property Description
Showings start Saturday, March 23rd. Welcome to 204 Birmingham Road, where old-world charm meets modern convenience. This home was an old school house. At the edge of the property there is a historic marker showing the Cornwallis' Division of the British army halted here on September 11, 1777, on its march to the Battlefield of Brandywine.
Step into the foyer, adorned with brick flooring, setting the tone for the unique character of this home. Conveniently located on the main level, you'll find the laundry room/ mudroom, along with ample closet space for storage. Hardwood floors flow throughout the living spaces, adding warmth and elegance.
The primary bedroom suite is a sanctuary unto itself, with a large closet, a second walk-in closet, a cozy sitting area, and a ceiling fan for added comfort. The primary bath features tile flooring, tile surround, and a charming tongue and groove ceiling, creating a spa-like retreat.
The dining room offers breathtaking views into the meadow and stunning sunsets, thanks to its southern exposure. Four new dining room/living room windows flood the space with natural light, complementing the built-in hutch and beamed ceilings, adding to the home's character.
Stay cozy on chilly evenings with the wood stove insert, surrounded by tile from the 1920s featuring Shakespearean themed tiles. Built-in bookcases and cabinets offer both functionality and charm.
The second bedroom includes a powder room, providing added convenience for guests or family members. The updated kitchen features tile flooring, Corian countertops, electric cooking, and a delightful eat-in area with a tiled ceiling and ceiling fan. A stylish backsplash adds a touch of modern flair.
Step outside onto the deck to enjoy the breathtaking sunsets, or descend to the slate patio to relax and unwind in the yard. A one-car detached garage with electricity and a working barn door and carport offer space for woodworking or crafting enthusiasts. The fenced-in garden is perfect for cultivating your own vegetables or flowers.
The basement provides additional storage space, while the mature plantings, including Japanese maples and a eastern red bud tree, create a picturesque setting. Gather around the fire pit with friends and family, or visit the charming chicken coop, adding to the homestead ambiance of this exceptional property.
Don't miss the opportunity to experience the perfect blend of historic charm and modern amenities at 204 Birmingham Road. Schedule your private tour today! 3/24 new single pump float switch installed by Gallagher septic. Truly a special place to call home!
