Property Description

Tucked into the rolling, wooded countryside of southern Chester County, 309 Southbank Road is a gracious brickfront Colonial with a timeless look. Step inside and the home feels warm and welcoming from the start, with gleaming hardwood floors that carry you from room to room. On chilly autumn evenings, gather around the crackling wood-burning fireplace. The first-floor bedroom suite, with its own private full bath, is a gracious hideaway for overnight guests and visiting loved ones, or a peaceful home office with every convenience close at hand. Main-floor laundry makes the daily routine easy. Upstairs, the bright, airy primary suite is a true sanctuary, with a large ensuite bath with soaking tub and an expansive walk in closet with a convenient laundry chute! Three additional bedrooms provide ample space for kids and guests alike, and the hall bath has been recently renovated with heated floors that greet you on even the frostiest winter mornings. In all, five bedrooms and 3.5 baths stretch across nearly 4,900 beautifully kept square feet, so there's room to live, work, entertain and unwind. Through a glass door to the basement level, the sun-washed daylight space is partially finished, with its own outdoor access. Currently a comfy hang out space for older kids, it's ready to become a media room, home gym, creative studio or additional guest quarters. An attached two-car side-entry garage with room for four more cars in the driveway provides space for every vehicle and every visitor. With over an acre of land, enjoy pastoral views from the expansive deck off the kitchen at the rear of the house. This serene setting is the envy of the neighborhood and the perfect location for a quiet cup of morning coffee or full blown celebration with family and friends. Beyond the boundaries of the property, the lifestyle is just as inviting. White Clay Creek Preserve is practically your backyard, with miles of shaded trails that wind along the creek for morning hikes, weekend bike rides, fly fishing and quiet birdwatching. You're also near the storied "Wedge," the historic sliver of land where Pennsylvania, Delaware and Maryland meet. The charms of Newark, Hockessin, Kennett Square and Elkton are all within easy reach. When you want the bustle of the city, Christiana Mall's tax-free shopping, fine dining and I-95 are just a short drive away. It's peaceful country living with three states of possibilities at your doorstep. Come fall in love with it...book your showing today!!
