Description

Welcome to 675 W Seven Stars Road! This beautiful, custom-built home is five years young and waiting for its next chapter! Offering true one-floor living, this property is a great option for ease of living while still offering plenty of space and the ability to enjoy the gardens and surrounding land. This home was built using Insulated Concrete Forms (ICFs) which make it very energy efficient, significantly stronger than average frame-built construction and sound dampening as well. By filling a Styrofoam insulated shell with reinforced concrete, this construction method combines strength with insulation superior to any conventional material. When you arrive at this impressive property, you’re welcomed by the wrap-around front porch with a standing seam metal roof and stamped concrete floor. The natural stone exterior was chosen specifically to maintain the integrity of the surrounding Chester County landscape. Entering the house, you’ll notice the warm Pennsylvania oak hardwood floors extending through the entire first floor of the house. On your left is the private home office with custom built-in cabinets and shelving plus a large closet and a beautiful view overlooking the front yard. On your right is a guest bedroom including a private bathroom with a single vanity and tub/shower with tile surround. Additionally, you’ll find the spacious junior suite with plenty of natural light, a walk-in closet and a private bathroom. The bathroom offers a single vanity with storage plus a step-in shower with tile surround and frameless glass door. As you continue back to the heart of the home, the expansive great room is sure to impress. The floor to ceiling wood-burning fireplace is constructed of local natural stone, a locally sourced granite hearth and old barnwood beam mantle and accents. Enhanced by more custom built-in cabinets and shelving plus the natural light from the skylights makes this a beautiful focal point. The simple and elegant kitchen has been thoughtfully designed to provide plenty of workspace, cabinetry for storage and equipment that a home chef will love. With quartzite countertops that are heat and scratch resistant, stainless-steel appliances and a tile backsplash the kitchen is ready for hosting your next holiday get together. Adjacent to the great room is the cozy sunroom with quaint beadboard ceiling overlooking the backyard and over 50 acres of preserved land beyond. You can make your way down to the stamped concrete patio via a French door. Finally, the primary bedroom boasts a large private bathroom with a soaking tub, two separate vanities with ample cabinet storage, a walk-in or roll-in shower with tile surround and a huge closet with custom storage system. For ease, the laundry room is accessible both from the hallway as well as directly from the primary bedroom. The large laundry room includes cabinetry and a counter for folding. The half bathroom is conveniently located just adjacent to the entrance to the two-car garage. The large unfinished basement has overheight ceilings and an egress window making it a great opportunity to add another casual living space. Lastly, this home offers a separate one-bedroom, one-bathroom living space that is accessed by a private exterior entrance. This is a perfect opportunity for an au pair, in-law suite or guest quarters. The exterior of this home has many mature gardens that will be blooming next spring with several native PA plants. The property abuts farmland that allows beautiful natural views year-round plus the occasional visit from the neighborhood cows. While this home is just minutes from Kimberton and downtown Phoenixville allowing access to shopping, dining and community events, the bucolic views can make you forget how close you really are!
