Own a piece of history AND an enchanting stone house that dates back to 1798 all within an easy walk of the train, schools, library and Post Office. Gorgeous wide plank floors, five fireplaces, extra deep windowsills and a garage that was once a stable are some of the delightful features youll discover inside this special home, known as Hinksons Corner. More than 200 years ago, James Hinkson, a wheelwright, erected two buildings side-by-side, one for himself and the second for a blacksmith. In later years, Hinksons Corner served as a general store, and at one point, a summer resort. Hinksons Corner has been tastefully updated by the current owners while preserving much of the charm of yesteryear, including a NEW roof, NEW windows, and convenient first floor Laundry. The main floor of the house features a Living Room, Dining Room, Kitchen with Butlers Pantry and Laundry, an adorable Powder Room and brick-floored Mud Room just off the Kitchen. On the second floor, you will find four Bedrooms, including one currently used as a Library, and a second, currently used as an enormous Family Room. There is a very spacious full Bath on this floor too (complete with a fireplace!). But theres more! An amazing third floor awaits you. There are two entrances to two separate third floors, which harkens back to the two original buildings built side-by-side. One third floor features two Bedrooms and a full Bath. The second third floor offers a Bedroom, Den space and a full Bath. This home is as enchanting on the outside as the inside with meandering brick paths, a secret gathering spot, and a simply gorgeous brick courtyard with a koi pond and black wrought iron gate. There is also a greenhouse. The yard is spacious and incredibly private a feast for the eyes. There is driveway parking for 6 cars plus the garage. The house has been freshly painted inside and out and the sellers recently purchased a NEW furnace. 1 E. Brookhaven Road is located in award-winning Wallingford Swarthmore School District and is a short train ride to downtown Philadelphia and less than 20 minutes to the airport. Dont miss this special home! Showings start Saturday, April 12.
