What's around 17 East Summit Avenue

About this property

Stoney Run is a private enclave of just twelve custom-built homes in Montchanin, and 17 Summit Lane sits at the back of it on three private acres, screened by mature trees. The house is built entirely of hand-laid brick with detailed accents throughout, the kind of exterior craftsmanship that's hard to find in anything built today. Three levels of living are connected by a private elevator. The main floor centers on a foyer that opens to a formal living room, dining room, and a wet bar between the kitchen and dining spaces. The kitchen opens to a family room, with a butler's pantry, office/library, laundry room, and two powder rooms rounding out the floor. The primary suite is also on this level, with its own sitting room and full bath, an uncommon layout in a home this size. Upstairs, four bedrooms each have a private bath, along with a second floor playroom and family room. The third floor holds a fifth bedroom, a full hall bath, and a self-contained suite with its own sitting room and kitchenette, suited to guests or extended family. Downstairs, the lower level holds a full bar, wine cellar, exercise room, prep kitchen, and a bonus room or office, all opening onto the natatorium: an indoor pool with its own kitchen and full bath with dressing area, usable through every season. Between the attached three car garage and a detached two car garage with car lifts, there's room for up to seven vehicles under cover. Stoney Run's real rarity is space. Every home in the enclave sits on multiple private acres, giving each owner privacy that's hard to find this close to town. Greenville's shops and restaurants are minutes away, and Brandywine Creek State Park and the back entrance to Winterthur Museum and Gardens are practically next door. It feels like the country, without giving up any of the convenience.
