Malvern Bank House of the Week: Renovated Historic 1890 Meeting House in Chadds Ford

By

This historic home at 80 Heyburn Road is available for sale in Chadds Ford.

At the center of historic Chadds Ford, this circa 1890 Meeting House has been thoughtfully renovated and masterfully expanded.

It is perched on the banks of Karver Lake providing a 7-acre water front setting.

The architectural heritage of the historical home is echoed in Archer-Buchanan designed additions.

The stone of the original structure was carefully matched for use on the front facades and in the hardscape walls that frame the lawns.

Natural light floods the foyer and grand staircase.

Richly stained reclaimed white oak floors blanket main and upper levels.  Paneled doors have been paired with meticulously reproduced and repurposed historical hardware. The home boasts 10-foot ceilings.

There are two offices off the main level with two original fireplaces opposite, and a study on the second level.

The kitchen has richly grained custom cabinetry and built-in fine appliances, topped with subtle stone and wood counters.

French doors lead to the outside with water front views.

A family friendly space with both banquette and bar stool seating spills into the comfortable family room with plenty of space, a  stone fireplace, carved mantle and built-in cabinets.

A main floor mudroom has built-in cubbies, laundry with copper potting sink and a walk-in pantry, walk in storage closet and two powder rooms.

Up the back stairs, the master suite offers private walk in closets and bathroom accommodations for two.

Tucked into the hallways is a shoe closet, linen closet, suitcase close and additional storage.

There are three additional spacious bedrooms, en suite.

In the original wing of the second floor, the second laundry, and au pair suite offer private accommodations and sitting room.

Blending modern convenience and old world charm, the third floor plays host to two additional bedrooms, and bath, as well as bonus finished spaces.

The daylight lower level has a fully appointed fitness suite, highlighted by a steam shower and separate sauna.

A kitchenette adds service to the lounge area, craft space and play room.

An accessory three bay carriage house enhances the integral two-car garage with ample additional storage for garden equipment.

It is listed for $4,495,000 on realtor.com.
