Property Description
Step back in time with "Cypress Lawn," a stunning historic home built in 1873 by Samuel and Deborah Pennock. Situated on a spacious .68-acre lot within walking distance of downtown Kennett Square, this beautifully maintained property blends timeless character with modern updates. Offering 4 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, 11-foot ceilings, hardwood floors, custom moldings, and abundant natural light, the home has been freshly painted throughout and is move-in ready. The completely remodeled kitchen and full bathroom provide today's conveniences while preserving the home's historic appeal. A welcoming wraparound porch overlooks the mature trees that provide shade and privacy. You can entertain guests in the dining room which is located next to the great room. Following out into the hallway brings you to the study which is currently being used as an office. The kitchen features an induction range, butcher block center island, full height cabinets, and soapstone counters. The first floor also includes a convenient half bath and an attached one-car garage. Upstairs, you'll find four generously sized bedrooms with ample closet space and a centrally located full bath. The finished walk-out basement features a cosy family room with a gas fireplace, a well-appointed laundry room, space for arts and crafts, multiple storage areas, and walk-up access to the backyard. Updated mechanicals include high-efficiency gas heat and hot water, plus central high-velocity air conditioning. The third floor offers two additional unfinished rooms with a storage room between them, presenting an excellent opportunity to create additional bedrooms, office space, or a bonus room. Car enthusiasts, hobbyists, and contractors will appreciate the impressive 36' x 48' detached garage with insulation, heat and water that also accommodates a vehicle lift. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Kennett Square history with modern comforts, exceptional garage space, and a prime Borough location.
