Not too big, not too small, just right! This private oasis is nestled in one of the most sought-after areas of bucolic Willistown township. This enchanting property is comprised of two parcels totaling 4.2 acres, with scenic vistas of two fenced paddocks, woods and a small pond. The property includes a four-stall barn with tack room (water and recently upgraded electric), so bring your ponies, maybe some sheep, goats or even a "wonky-donky" - and enjoy country-style living minutes just minutes from everything you need! Cottage charm abounds with a graceful blend of old and new in this updated and expanded colonial split-level home. Discreetly hidden behind a modest exterior, this home will surprise you with over 4,000 sq. ft of living space spanning three levels, plus a finished basement too! The stunning new kitchen (crisp white cabinetry with quartz countertops and large center island, stainless appliances and beverage center) features a spectacular exposed fieldstone wall with a gas (propane) fireplace accented by a reclaimed wood mantle. (There is a dutch-door entry and cozy window seat too!) The adjacent den/ office is accented by large solid-core barn-style doors that create a quiet retreat when being used as an office. The traditional dining room is generously proportioned for grand entertaining, with a wood-burning fireplace and built-in shelving adding warmth and character to this space. Flow from the dining room to the light-filled, show-stopping great room with a vaulted, beamed ceiling and windowed cupula, plus a soaring stone fireplace (propane) flanked by built-in shelving, and two sets of french-style doors to the covered back deck. This room also features a wet-bar with granite countertops, upper and lower cabinetry, tumbled tile backsplash and space for a beverage fridge. The adjacent mudroom and main floor powder room were part of the the great room addition. These spaces add the functionality you need - with convenient access to the patio, back yard, barn and garage - with easy care tile flooring, and a large coat/ storage closet. Upstairs are the primary bedroom and bathroom suite, plus two other nicely sized bedrooms and a hall bath. Another surprise - just half a flight up is an attic storage area. Half a flight down from the foyer entry is an expansive lower level. With original ("real-wood") paneling, you'll feel old-Willistown in this cozy space . The lower level family room features another stone fireplace (this one is wood burning). There are two doors to enter this space at grade level - one entry into the family room and the second into the adjacent mudroom and kitchenette. The kitchenette has Corian countertops, cabinetry storage, a full size refrigerator and a newer stainless Bosch dishwasher (it's always great to have two dishwashers when entertaining a crowd). Also on this level is the recently renovated third full bath (with frameless shower doors, built-in storage cubbies and pedestal sink), a 4th bedroom (full size daylight window and large closet), and an adjacent den (currently being used as an office and gaming space). With a kitchenette, bedroom with adjoining den - plus a full bath and private entry - this space is ideal for a nanny or in-law suite, or a returning college-age or working young-adult. Don't miss the built-in storage closets and the laundry area also on this level. Another half-flight down is a finished basement with a recreation space (storage closets and built-in desk), as well as a home-gym. 20KW whole-house generator w/ automatic switchover provides peace of mind in any weather. Detached, oversized 2-car garage and lots o parking. with two driveways to access the property (one on the LL nanny-suite side). So ... are you intrigued? Formerly known as "Spotted Horse Farm", these sports-loving owners named the property "Stix and Stones". Now this little slice of heaven awaits a new name and new owner ... will it be you?
