Windmill Hollow Manor is located in Chadds Ford, PA approximately 30 miles west of Philadelphia. The main house parcel consists of 43.27 acres of rolling hills in Wyeth country adjacent to the Brandywine River. In addition, the listing includes 8 adjoining parcels (acreage ranging from 9-20 acres) resulting in a once-in a lifetime opportunity to own and enjoy 188 acres located in the center of the Brandywine Valley. The 6 bedroom, 6 full and 4 half bath Cotswold-style manor was inspired by the 13th Century Buckland Manor in Gloucestershire, UK. The home was completed in 1998 and is a graceful stone structure with steeply pitched, gabled roof lines and 300 year-old roof slates. Authentic Cotswold leaded glass casement windows were fabricated in England with added dual glazing for energy efficiency. The window and door surrounds were quarried in the Costwolds and are a feature that creates an authentic English manor house. The home has 9 working fireplaces throughout, each one unique. The lower-level pub room has a working pizza oven. To give the illusion of a house started in the 1600's and lovingly maintained by succeeding generations of the same family, a variety of architectural styles were employed. Elizabethan, Jacobean, Georgian and Regency details are deftly incorporated into different rooms. Antique doors, hardware, millwork and flooring co-exist with excellent masterful stonework, iron work and carpentry to produce a home with design and architecture that is respectful to its historical predecessors. The brilliant gardens were designed by Rosemary Verey, the renowned garden designer to create a proper English Garden. The grounds also include a 12-stall stable and carriage building with access to approximately 6 miles of trails. An in-ground pool and pool house, greenhouse and 3-bay garage with second floor loft storage, built to resemble an English cottage, and a 3 BR Tenant house, only further enhance the grounds. The home, gardens and surrounds are breathtakingly beautiful and impossible to replicate. Please contact Listing Agent for additional information regarding this magnificent property.
