Flat out phenomenal! The prominent front entrance to 257 Deepdale Drive with its traditional multitiered definition, brick accents, arched garage-door opening, and the combination of architectural roof shingles and horizontal vinyl siding work well with a modern home and hint at the calmness that this impeccably maintained residence presents. Featuring the popular Byron model, this Woodstone Homes-built townhome in Belrose at Longwood is a relative newcomer to the increasingly popular community of Kennett Square, noted for its “highly rated” Kennett Consolidated School District and this property’s “world-renowned” doorstep neighbor, Longwood Gardens. As you step up onto the covered landing and into the front entry hall below the five-lite transom and past the five-lite side lights flanking the nine-lite steel front door, take a moment to absorb the many visual delights before you: handsome front-to-back hardwood flooring, bright white baseboards, and stained shoe trim framing soft and airy wall colors. And that’s just the beginning. Next, we enter the heart of the home. The spectacular eat-in kitchen continues the theme of Modern Openness-meets-Traditional design. Kitchen highlights include an abundance of beautiful cherry cabinetry, with an expanse of granite topping the base cabinets, and crown molding topping the 42” upper cabinets. Additional benefits of this space include a huge granite-topped island with ample room for four at the breakfast bar, a double stainless-steel sink, a wrap-around glass-tile backsplash, a conveniently located pantry, and stainless-steel appliances featuring a Samsung French-door refrigerator, a GE Adora dishwasher, and a GE Adora five-burner gas range with a built-in GE microwave above. All of which is highlighted with a combination of recessed and glorious pendant lighting! The adjoining family room, with a cathedral ceiling and lighted ceiling fan, features a strategically positioned gas-insert fireplace with a classic wood surround. Sliders from the dining area open to the private deck with three steps leading down to the grassy yard enhanced by the deciduous mature-growth trees situated behind the property. Not to be overlooked, a powder room, coat closet, and interior access to the front-entry, one-car garage complete the main level. We invite you to ascend the carpeted stairs to the upper level with its newer (2018) laminate flooring. You will discover the generously sized owner’s suite featuring a lighted ceiling fan, lots of closet space, a luxurious private bathroom with a vaulted ceiling, ceramic-tile on the floor, walls, and surround, a large glass-fronted walk-in shower, an oval-shaped soaking tub, and a double vanity. Two well-sized secondary bedrooms, a full hallway bath, and a laundry closet featuring an LG washer and dryer set complete the upper level. There’s still more! The floorplan for this terrific property includes the 20x14 third-level loft or bonus room (currently used as a home office and guest room) with a large walk-in closet. You will delight in the spaciousness of the unfinished (but plumbed!) lower level with a worry-reducing French drain and sump pump. This part of the house includes nine-foot ceilings, an egress window, and is large enough to accommodate a variety of needs. Located in Historic Chester County and convenient to all points north and south, this charming property may be just the home you’ve been looking for. By the way, a sizable choice of wonderful restaurants and eateries is only a few minutes away. SHOWINGS BEGIN AT THE OPEN HOUSE ON SATURDAY, MAY 27, 2023.
