Property Description
Rare opportunity to acquire and renovate charming antique home circa 1832 with incredible potential on picturesque 3.2 acres overlooking French Creek and the historic Kennedy Covered Bridge in Kimberton. This completely unique three bedroom three full bath home combines early 19th century attributes with contemporary design elements and presents an incredible palate for the creative homeowner with the desire to renovate. Enter the main level through the spacious, light-filled kitchen with built-in island, ready for your custom updates. The kitchen features a wall of windows, including a large Palladian window, facing French Creek, the mill race and the covered bridge. Just off the kitchen is a small balcony, perfect for morning coffee, bird watching and pots full of culinary herbs. The main floor also includes the dining room and living room with working stone fireplace, original wide plank flooring and access to the lovely front porch, as well as a full hall bath and two bedrooms that share a second full bath. The upper level consists of one large bedroom with two walk-in closets that could also be well utilized as an artist's studio, crafting space or play room. The flexible lower level floor plan features a room with outside entrance that could be used as a fourth bedroom or media room, along with an office space, a full bath and a workshop/storage area. The property also includes a three car capacity outbuilding/studio with woodstove - needs work including new roof. One of Kimberton's most magical and famous properties, this memorable home has appeared in two movies - The Blob and Bright Victory. This property is within walking distance of lovely Kimberton Village where you'll find East Pikeland Community Park, Kimberton Whole Foods and the Kimberton Inn, and is directly across the creek from the Kimberton Waldorf School.
