Property Description
Tucked into the storybook setting of Centreville, this one-of-a-kind home blends timeless European charm with everything today’s buyer is searching for—space, walkability, and peace of mind with major updates already complete. Set beside preserved pastureland, the property offers rare privacy while still being a short stroll from the village’s shops, dining, and playground. Originally built as two caretaker cottages for a neighboring estate, the home was thoughtfully reimagined into a single, cohesive residence. The result is an architectural gem where old-world craftsmanship meets modern living. Soaring two-story exposed brick walls anchor the dramatic living room, framed by walls of windows that invite natural light from front to back. Exterior slate accents add rich texture and color, enhancing the home’s European feel. Designed for gathering and entertaining, the home features both indoor and outdoor fireplaces, creating warm, inviting focal points year-round. The layout offers both connection and privacy: the primary suite sits above the kitchen on the east side, while three additional bedrooms occupy the west wing, linked by a balcony overlooking the living space below. A first-floor guest suite with ensuite bath provides ideal accommodations for guests, nanny, or multi-generational living. 2nd Den/family room on first floor or loft area above could be 5th bedroom. 1st and 2nd floor laundry and add'l mudroom add to the convenience. At the heart of the home, the kitchen is both expansive and cozy, centered around a generous granite island and equipped with dual ovens—perfect for cooking while enjoying views of the surrounding open land and village. Recent upgrades — including a new roof (2025) and two new HVAC systems (2022/2025) —ensure low-maintenance living. The detached three-car garage adds even more versatility, with nine-foot doors, overhead storage, and an extended patio, complete with hot tub retreat. This is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle. A place where charm, comfort, and community come together, and where every gathering feels a little more special. Owner is licensed real estate broker in DE and PA.
