The French Norman style home, with its steep wood shake roof, was built with fieldstone collected from the remains of two nearby mills and one of two found mill wheels is used as a soothing water feature in a stone wall. The second is in the front walkway. One of the homes former owners was the founder of the West Chester Garden Club and her influence remains in the gorgeous landscaping which creates numerous intimate spots and ensures the privacy of the property. The gardens provide the gracious feel of a country estate. The current owners undertook an extensive, award-winning, eight month long renovation. The renovation included full-house ducting for a 15-ton WaterFurnace geothermal heating and cooling system and installing a 10.4kW solar array with online monitoring. They also repointed the entire stone exterior and undertook a full-house replastering and painting project. Not deterred by arduous tasks, they also rebuilt the entire substructure under the Kitchen, basement to ceiling, that included the repointing and parging of the basement and also the two-car garage.
