The gourmet chef’s kitchen, equipped with granite countertops, Sub-Zero refrigerator, center island and stainless-steel appliances is ideal for both intimate family meals and entertaining. Adjacent to the kitchen is a stunning family room with vaulted ceilings, an original stone wall plus striking wood beams and window casings that originated from the iconic Farmer in the Dell Restaurant located just outside West Chester, PA. The family room also features a charming spiral staircase leading to one of the 2nd floor bedrooms. The 2nd floor houses 4 bedrooms and 3 full completely renovated bathrooms, that include the gorgeous primary suite featuring a renovated, luxurious bath and 2 walk-in closets. The 3rd floor houses a 5th bedroom, attic space and a huge walk-in cedar closet. The basement is made up of several areas including its ”original, nautical-themed lounge with portholes for light fixtures, a bar of glass bricks that glows from within, a ship’s stair with canvas sides and a seascape mural” as was documented in an issue of Westover Hills History Magazine. The basement also includes a powder room, craft room and unfinished areas that offer plenty of additional storage, the laundry area and inside access to the 2-car garage.
