Property Description
Presenting "Ivystone", a unique, converted bank barn conveniently situated within walking distance from downtown West Chester with quick access to major highways. The barn and carriage house were built in 1827 and reside on one acre of ground with gorgeous landscaping and an in-ground pool with new pool deck. The property combines the historic features of the original buildings with modern convenience and efficiencies. The dwellings are sitting away from the road, preserving the historic vista/features of the bank barn. The house itself has been recently updated with a renovated kitchen, third floor conversion and many other improvements. As you enter the enclosed courtyard of the old barn foundation, you will enjoy the original stonework, stone arches and brick walkway as you approach the front door. The first floor consists of a large foyer, an office/family bonus room, bedroom with bath, a fireplace and opens up to the large patio and pool area. The second floor contains a spacious living room with stone fireplace and dining area, a master bedroom and bath with granite countertops, tile flooring and a jetted tub. The eat-in kitchen with new granite counter tops conveniently opens to a deck overlooking the fenced-in yard. On the third level of the home, the owner has recently finished the space and generated two bedrooms featuring exposed stonework and a walk-in closet, a modern bathroom and created a new HVAC zone. The third floor also features gorgeous new hardwood flooring. The detached carriage house, currently a 4 car garage, has incredible potential, and boasts exposed beams and beautiful stonework, with space to be finished into a studio apartment or a workshop. There is also a loft area above which could be renovated for an in-home office, studio, guest area, etc. The layout of this home with its flexible floor plan would allow for an in-law suite or separate living quarters on the first and third floor. This home is part of the North Hill Civic Association and a membership provides access to the lake for swimming and neighborhood social events. This one-of-a-kind property with its outstanding architectural features and beautiful grounds, has unlimited potential to be the historic home of your dreams and all within minutes of downtown West Chester.
