A circa 1795 Chester County estate with 11 acres, a 3 story farmhouse, separate 2 bedroom carriage house, large stone bank barn, sport court, and incredible flexibility in Downingtown, PA. 4701 Edges Mill Road offers the rare combination of acreage, character, privacy, additional living space, and convenient access to major routes, commuter options, shopping, dining, parks, and everyday amenities. The main home features 8 bedrooms or flexible bonus rooms, 3 full baths, 2 half baths, beautiful wood floors, exposed beams, multiple staircases, a renovated kitchen with granite counters and wood stove, formal dining room, parlor with custom bar, cozy family room, private office, upper floor laundry, and 6 fireplaces. The layout creates options for working from home, hosting long term guests, multigenerational living, hobby space, creative studios, or simply spreading out in a home with true historic presence. The separate 2 bedroom carriage house has its own address, well, and newer septic system, creating added flexibility for guests, extended household needs, or possible rental income depending on buyer use and local requirements. Outdoors, the property is built for a lifestyle that is hard to find in a traditional neighborhood.
