Let Historic Landenberg be your home to welcome spring! Misty Hollow is an 1860 farmhouse built in the National Folk style barely visible from Landenberg Road. It sits on 5 luscious acres with mature plantings, specimen trees, and fabulous water features that will be a blooming delight in spring and a shaded oasis in summer. This very private property is accessed through an automatic gate. It features a 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath fieldstone home with 4,300 square feet of above ground space, with an eye-catching stone interior and high-end woodwork throughout. Loaded with rustic charm and fresh with modern conveniences, Misty Hollow is highlighted by a large master bedroom with solid oak timber framing and lots of natural light. Sliders off the cathedral-ceiling family room with fireplace lead to a great deck overlooking the property, displaying the property’s tranquil verdant setting. Stainless appliances in the log-cabin-style eat-in kitchen. Very comfortable country living; heat pump, hot water and baseboard electric heat, a wood-burning stove and fireplaces; pedestal sinks, claw-foot bathtub, ceiling fans, an automatic backup generator, a brand new state-of-the-art septic system, and a stone-faced 2 car detached garage, round out the house’s features. A separate converted barn apartment or in-law suite with an additional full bath, kitchen, laundry, bedroom, private entrance and 2 parking spaces, provides good rental income. Much storage space above and below the apartment; the lower level could also make an excellent work shop. A 3-sided horse or livestock shelter sits on a 1.8 acre portion of the property and has already received subdivision approval. Located in the Kennett Consolidated School District and part of historic district of old Landenberg, Misty Hollow has easy access to Kennett Square, Hockessin, Newark, and Wilmington, and is near the 6,000-plus White Clay Creek Preserve.
