This Hillview Road property offers a wonderfully updated farmhouse setting with plenty of modern entertaining space.
Take a drive through the more tucked-away roads of the Main Line, and you’re sure to find plenty of splendor. From rolling hills to expansive land, the features in the region’s immaculate homes connotate the memory of simpler times of years past while still being equipped with modern luxuries. Hunting Hill Farm is just that.
Located at 775 Hillview Road in Malvern, Hunting Hill Farm hits the red-hot Chester County real estate market on March 11, with five bedrooms and 3.5 baths. This stunning, three-story farmhouse is situated on over 5,200 square feet of land, and the photos speak for themselves.
“The current owners have been continuously renovating the property since they purchased it in 2014,” says listing agent Jody Vandegrift of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Fox & Roach – Malvern. The list of updates is expansive, starting with the removal of exterior stucco to expose the stone. Sections of the first and second floors have been opened up, the primary suite has been reconfigured and outfitted with a walk-in closet and enlarged bath and the in-ground saltwater pool has been refurbished. New mechanicals throughout the home as well as a whole-house generator are also among the list of improvements.
Outside, you’ll find an entertainer’s dream. The barn on the property has undergone a complete transformation, being remodeled from a working horse barn to an impeccable party space, fit with commercial appliances, custom cabinetry and heat on the top floor. Below, four large stalls remain with an oversized aisle, and you’ll also find a convenient outdoor shower. Plus, this is just the start of the entertaining spaces on the property. The outdoor fire pit invites residents to cozy up on chilly nights, and the privacy of the pool with pastoral views is the ultimate summer hangout spot.
“Hunting Hill stands out for many reasons,” says Vandegrift. “It’s a 19th-century farmhouse that has been updated with 21st-century amenities, and it beautifully blends the charm and character of yesteryear with finishes to suit today’s most discerning buyer.”
For the equestrian buyer, the home is located in the heart of Radnor Hunt country. “Many long-standing residents recall fond memories of horse shows hosted at the property,” Vandegrift describes. Equestrian trails are easily accessible, with the Radnor Hunt Club and equestrian facilities just a short hack away.
The Malvern location is incredibly convenient, with Chester County and the Main Line at your fingertips. The property is located in the Great Valley School District, and many notable private schools are nearby. The Paoli train station is just a few miles away, offering a quick trip into Center City Philadelphia.
“This legacy property has been admired by many and is now offered to the next lucky buyer,” Vandegrift writes in the property’s listing description. Showings will begin March 11.
