Property Description
Step into history with this enchanting 1812 carriage house in Lafayette Hill's heart. Imagine the stories these walls could tell as you make this timeless residence your own.
Upon entering, you'll be greeted by a sun-drenched living room overlooking the beautifully landscaped grounds. With rich hardwood floors, a cozy fireplace, and built-in shelving perfect for showcasing your favorite books and treasures, this inviting space serves as the heart of the home.
Just off the living room, a delightful enclosed porch with stone flooring and walls of windows offers a serene retreat, bringing the beauty of nature indoors. Another sunroom, seamlessly connecting two rooms, provides the perfect nook for curling up with a good book or stepping out to the private patio and raised garden beds that adorn the side of the home.
The kitchen, truly the heart of the home, offers a warm and functional space to create your favorite dishes. The fresh herbs you can cultivate just outside enhance this space. With a charming vaulted ceiling and skylights, it is designed to carry the comforting aromas of home-cooked meals throughout. Conveniently located off the kitchen is a full bath and laundry area.
The outside grounds will welcome Spring with a ton of blooms! Start your day by sitting on one of your many patios, sipping your coffee, and watching nature bloom right before you! The fenced-in yard allows room to roam for your furbabies to romp around and chase the squirrels and birds. Find your favorite sitting area here, is it the outside dining area, the leisure area where you could have your fire roaring, roasting your marshmallows, or wait, is it the separate covered deck at the rear of the yard that overlooks township-owned ground behind your property where the deer roam.
Upstairs, a switchback staircase leads to your peaceful sleeping quarters. These quarters feature three bedrooms, beautiful hardwood floors, and a full bath illuminated by a skylight with a claw-foot tub that you can soak all your aches and pains away.
The four bay garage at the front of the home is perfect for storing your gardening equipment, cars, or any collection you like. Opening outward on the cobblestone drive, with old school black straps, here you could imagine what these garages housed back in 1812, their favorite carriage may be the answer.
A rare opportunity to own a piece of history, this unique home blends old-world charm with modern comforts in an unbeatable location. Don't miss your chance to make it yours!
