Property Description

Saying 453 Bayard Rd is a historical gem of a property would be the understatement of the century! More affectionately known as the "Flower Farm"-The deed for this property can be tracked all the way back to William Penn in the 1700's-when it was a 515 acre parcel. Then granted to Joseph Pennock another famous name in KSQ-in 1701. The history is so rich with influential names, that we encourage any potential buyer to please reach out for more information with the listing agent. We have an entire binder of information from the original developers that we would love to share. It is believed reviewing the 1850 census the first structure on this tract of land was erected in the 1840's by Thomas Marshall Jr. for his bride- a widow Elizabeth Plankinton Sinclair. Thomas who was a Quaker was "read out of meeting" for his transgression of marrying a widow-but love overcame and he created this beautiful historical property standing today. Built with hornblende stone from a quarry on Hillendale Rd-the exterior of this home is timeless and breathtaking. The home sits atop the hill with miraculous views, and overlooks the massive 3 story barn. It is worth noting the barn has had significant utility & structural upgrades. The barn was in the process of being finished for livable space by the current owner. The best way to describe the home would be once you walk inside you take a magical step back in time-to incredible detailed craftsmanship. Once in the "old part of house" you can enjoy 3 stories of living, 4 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms and a half bath. The loft/4th bedroom all the way upstairs features its own full bath and has amazing views of the property. The old part of the house is over 4000 plus sq ft of living space and has history tucked around every corner. All the systems have been updated to today's standards, including new electrical panels, and a high velocity hvac. In the study, or old kitchen downstairs you can cross over into the 4000 plus sq ft new addition portion of the property. From the old house walk into the family room, and then the massive kitchen- with 20ft plus ceilings with tremendous detail like barrel rolled arches, and high end tile. Off the Kitchen there is a walkway overlooking the soon to be courtyard- that leads back to the primary suite. Radiant heat floors in the entire primary bed and bathroom. There are also two closets, separate washer dryer hookup, massive shower area, and a dedicated room for vanities and toilet to name just a few of the great features in the primary suite.. On the other side of the addition there is a breakfast room, utility room for washer dryer hookups, and also an option for a great guest quarters with its own staircase that could serve as a 6th bedroom also. All the way downstairs there is an absolutely MASSIVE basement with 9ft ceilings and endless possibilities. This property truly has it all. Historically significant for sure, with new world amenities for the modern buyer, the best of both worlds. Bring your vision and contractors to finish the blank canvas kitchen and other finish work to make this proeprtry one of the top show pieces in all of Kennett Township. Many structural upgrades include outside french drain, storm water management in place, new septic that has never been used. New 50 yr shingle roof, new steel roof on the barn, Geothermal HVAC systems. Approximately 8000 sq ft of living space in the house , plus 3.11 acres and a 3 story barn with structural upgrades means the value is here. "AS IS" and CASH sale only- and this is a project- the last 25 percent of cosmetic choices, the kitchen, and finish work needs to be completed, a perfect opportunity for someone with vision. Tremendous upside to make this a 2 million plus property in one of the most desired townships in all of Pennsylvania!
