A Lacanche range handmade in France took longer to arrive than the original section of this home took to build. That singular detail reveals everything about “The Inn” at 202 Privet Lane — located in Olde Bulltown Village, an exquisitely crafted reproduction period estate set on .44 acres along the private fairways of French Creek Golf Club, masterfully designed by world-renowned architect Gil Hanse. Conceived in 2019 and thoughtfully expanded in 2022, this 3,993 SF residence was born of an obsessive reverence for early American craftsmanship without the compromise of a single modern comfort. A sweeping gravel motor court gives way to handmade brick, locally quarried Elverson iron-stone fieldstone with its rare blue iron veining, glowing Bevolo gas lanterns, and a wooden herringbone front door. The first floor unfolds as a complete world unto itself. Five custom mudroom lockers over real kiln-fired brick floors set the tone immediately. The coffered and beamed living room with an oversized brick and plaster fireplace and golf course views through every window follows — then a deep navy butler's pantry complete with pin oak counters from a tree sourced from the land at Bulltown, a Shaw’s Original farmhouse sink, oven, wine chiller, and Subzero refrigerator and freezer drawers, perfectly designed for hosting gatherings. The kitchen proper is in a category of its own and at the heart of the house: British Green Lacanche range commands the room with both gas and electric ovens, honed soapstone on every surface, a hand-forged iron refrigerator pull and custom hardware including rat-tail hinges. A reclaimed mill beam marks the passage into a soaring cathedral dining room with a full interior Elverson fieldstone wall, 18-arm iron chandelier, Rumford fireplace, and a 12-foot table handcrafted from reclaimed 18th-century Chester County floorboards. Distressed random-width pine floors with flathead nails and bespoke hand-crafted hardware throughout the home. A private first-floor office — wrapped entirely in a hand-painted Rufus Porter-style mural by artist Susan Leach, rolling Pennsylvania countryside on every wall — doubles as a bedroom with its own full bath and freestanding clawfoot soaking tub. Upstairs: a primary suite with a cast-iron gas potbelly stove, walk-in closet, and floor-to-ceiling kiln-fired brick shower with soapstone floor and rain head unlike anything else in Chester County. Two additional generous bedrooms; a secret play nook under the stairs; and a full hall bath with a reclaimed timber post rising from the vanity. The third-floor office/bedroom includes a full bath outfitted in Restoration Hardware fixtures, and Calacatta marble vanity, frames panoramic fairway views. The finished walkout lower level delivers a timeless designed family room with a Rumford fireplace, private guest suite, and full bath with hand-hammered copper sink and soapstone shower tiles. Outside, four levels of living unfold beneath a Chester County sky: cedar shake roof, a copper-covered timber deck off the dining room with built-in outdoor heater, unobstructed fairway views; a brick patio at the walkout level with Pennsylvania bluestone bench seating built into the fieldstone retaining walls; and a fire kettle sourced from Sea Island Forge sits upon the open lawn. French Creek Golf Club borders the property directly, while Stonewall Golf Club — home to two Tom Doak championship courses ranked among the finest in Pennsylvania — sits immediately across the road. And every evening, the western sky ignites over the rolling hills in a sunset that stops you mid-sentence. Situated just 45 minutes from Philadelphia. Detached 2-car carriage house (672 SF + 486 SF above, fully wired, plumbed, internet-cabled, and wired for electric vehicles). 5-zone geothermal HVAC, Generac whole-home generator. Radon mitigation in place. HOA ($3,325/yr) maintains lawn, snow, and trash. Built to endure for centuries. Ready for you today.
