Property Description
The Job Peirce House is a 5 BR, 3/2 BA historic Quaker Farmhouse, circa 1830, situated on a private park-like 6-acre lot in the award-winning Unionville Chadds Ford School District. Current owners have made extensive, high-end upgrades that blend historic integrity with modern conveniences. Exterior combines brick, wood-siding, stone and traditional stucco construction; cedar shake roof was installed in 2008. Hardwood floors throughout the house and nine-over-six windows, some with original glass, add to the authentic feel of the home. When entering the home you will marvel at the Formal Dining Room and Living Room; each has a fireplace (there are 8 fireplaces in the house) and extensive mill work; large doors can be closed to separate the rooms. The Waterbury-renovated Kitchen has a large island with gas cook top, built-in oven and microwave, farmhouse sink and original fireplace. Older section of the house includes Library and charming Breakfast/Morning room. A John Milner-designed addition has a sun-filled Family Room, Pantry, Laundry Room, and generous Family Entrance. The Second Floor has a Master Bedroom with private Bath, three other Bedrooms (one is currently used as an Office), a hall Bathroom and a two-room Suite. Suite has separate full Bath, separate staircase from First Floor, a cozy Sitting Room, and a Bedroom with a convenient Dressing Area. Extensive storage opportunities in large bedroom closets, built-in cabinets, linen closets, walk-up attic and unfinished, walk-out basement. Original dairying cellar is in good condition, currently used as a wine cellar. At Lower Level, finished "Potting Room" with electricity and water is accessed from the outside. House is heated with oil and propane; zoned radiant heat and forced hot air; whole house is air-conditioned; public water; on-site septic system. There are 2 barns on the property. The older is a 2-stall open carriage barn circa 1880. The newer barn, 20'x30', built in 2005, with electricity and water, is currently used as a wood-working shop; could be used as a garage for cars and/or other vehicles. Garden offers mature trees and shrubs, a fruit orchard, a small stream and discreet deer fencing around entire property. This outstanding property is located in the beautiful Brandywine Valley, close to Longwood Gardens, Winterthur, and Chadds Ford, numerous other cultural venues, schools, and many shopping and restaurant options; easy access to Wilmington, Philadelphia and the Airport.
