Description
NEW PRICE! This charming stone farmhouse, nestled on 2.1 acres within its own nature preserve, offers a picturesque setting. Imagine watching bald eagles, herons, and other wildlife right from your home along the banks of Red Clay Creek. The property boasts a welcoming front porch with views of the creek and open space, surrounded by beautifully landscaped roses, peonies, and hydrangeas. Built in 1740, this historic home exudes character and old-world charm! Dutch doors lead to a newly renovated gourmet kitchen featuring a wood-burning stove and an island—a perfect spot for culinary creativity. On the main floor, you’ll find a formal living room, a dining room, and a cozy den with a fireplace and wood-burning stove. Completing the first floor is a mudroom and a convenient half bath. Upstairs, the second floor houses the primary bedroom with a full bath and dressing room and a back stair to a third floor sitting room. There are two additional bedrooms and another hall bath. For added convenience, there’s a second-floor laundry area. The third floor offers yet another bedroom and an office or bonus room. Recent updates include a new well and well pump, a septic system installed in 2015, a fresh cedar shake roof, and a standing seam roof above the dormers (at the back of the house). The interior and exterior have been newly painted, and new storm doors were added in 2023—making this home move-in ready! Additional amenities include a detached four-car carport, a vegetable garden, and a chicken coop with a pen. Located conveniently near Kennett and Delaware, this property provides easy access to shopping, restaurants, and more.

The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
