Need more garage space? Are you tiring of the arguments with your spouse every time you want to buy a new toy? Where are you going to put it? What car are you going to get rid of? Never again will you have the same argument about space to store your collection. We are offering a property for sale in Downingtown, Pa that is a discriminating car enthusiast’s dream!
5 Dowlin Forge is a majestic masterpiece of unparalleled craftsmanship and architectural details. Located in the Lionville/ Exton area, this magnificent ten acre estate features a 4,000 square foot main residence, custom designed and constructed by master craftsmen. Privacy and spectacular views of the countryside surround this naturally landscaped property. This property is expansive yet graceful and inviting.
As you approach this five bedroom, three and a half bathroom Colonial Farmhouse that boasts a 200 year old twisting stone bridge followed by a meandering paved private lane you feel like you are in another world. Emerging from the woods you are greeted by a wonderful stone wall that leads to the 3-4 car carriage house or car stable. Further down the driveway, the main house is on the left, with your choice of stalls in an oversize 4 car integral garage.
The home and property are adjacent to 300 areas of Marsh Creek State Park with its hiking and biking trails and lots of water activities including boating. Just minutes from the Pennsylvania Turnpike, the Route 202 corridor, Route 30 and the Septa station, this home makes Center City Philadelphia access a breeze!
This home abounds with fine details and craftsmanship and features the quality that a local builder produced for his own family along with the unique attributes that made him fall in love with Chester County historical homes. Designed for intimate gatherings as well as large scale entertaining, this home leaves no detail untouched. Designed and built in 1979, the home underwent an extensive remodeling in 2006 that included a new kitchen, master suite, architectural roof with skylights, electrical upgrades and more. The home blends old and new with the latest in amenities and appliances combined with classic details like a walk-in fireplace.
The first floor begins with a grand two story foyer. The centerpiece of this room is the butterfly staircase and detailed picture mouldings throughout. The kitchen features a country look with a brick floor and painted hardwood cabinetry, set amongst granite counters and a wine bar. The kitchen opens to the family room featuring a walk-in stone fireplace that rivals those found in the finest lodges in Aspen. Two sets of French doors open the family room to a view of the rear patio, gardens and swimming pool. There is also a library with built in bookcases. Tulip Poplar random width floors compliment the entire first floor.
The second floor is divided into two wings. The first contains a master suite that is a true retreat from the troubles of the day. The bedroom features two roof windows that flood the room with natural light. The master bath features custom ceramic tile and granite with tumbled stone accents in addition to custom millwork. The room boasts the latest in design trends including a dramatic sunken spa tub for two featuring chromotherapy, hydrotherapy and more. The master bath also features a 5x7 tumbled stone and tile shower with multiple shower heads and body jets. The room is completed by an attached custom organized dressing room. It’s a perfect place to start and end your day in blissful luxury. The remaining rooms are spread evenly throughout the second floor. Every bedroom has direct access to a private or semi-private bath. One is a princess suite with a walk-in closet and private bath. The remaining bedrooms share a bath and are divided from the master suite.
The home could never be reproduced for its sale price. From solid hardwood doors throughout, to insulated interior walls, the home features quality that is simply not produced in today’s homes. The property affords you unparalleled privacy and yet is less than 5 miles to the Pa Turnpike and near the Exton shopping areas. Whether you are blessed with a large family, or a collection of fine automobiles, this home is not to be missed. The last time this property was offered, this home lasted under 1 hour and the seller’s integrity was tested as a bidding war ensued. I’d love to see this property go to a fellow Porsche enthusiast to carry on the tradition. Offered in the $800's
