120 Ivy Mills Road

* Curious what makes this home different? A professionally designed Home Story Guide documenting the home's transformation - including before-and-after photography, investment details, and enhancement history - is available upon request.* Set along historic Ivy Mills Road, home to America's first paper mill and one of the Brandywine Valley's most scenic roads, this property combines the confidence of new construction with the character, livability, and thoughtful refinement that are rarely found so soon after completion. Surrounded by 3.31 private acres in the award-winning Garnet Valley School District, you'll find more than 4,200 square feet of beautifully planned living space with four bedrooms, four full baths, a finished walk-out lower level, and a seamless connection between indoor comfort and outdoor living. Purchased as brand-new construction just over a year ago, the current owners - real estate professionals with a passion for thoughtful design and long-term livability - invested more than $119,000 in carefully planned post-construction enhancements. Rather than changing what was already beautiful, they completed the kinds of improvements that transform a newly built house into a home that's ready to be fully enjoyed from day one. The rear acreage was professionally regraded into usable outdoor living space, an expansive composite deck was added for entertaining, the walk-out lower level was finished, the kitchen was elevated with custom design details, and intentional finishing touches throughout the home create a level of comfort and functionality that typically takes years to achieve. At the heart of the home, the kitchen was designed for gathering, featuring an oversized island, Bosch appliances, generous pantry space, and an open layout that flows naturally into the dining and living areas. Expansive windows frame wooded views while filling the home with natural light throughout the day. The result is a home where mornings begin with coffee overlooking the trees, afternoons unfold across a level backyard ready for games and gatherings, and evenings move effortlessly from the kitchen to the deck. The work has already been done. The next chapter is simply yours to enjoy. Beyond the property itself, the location captures the very best of the Brandywine Valley lifestyle. Enjoy the privacy and beauty of a historic country setting while remaining just minutes from Route 1, Media, West Chester, Wilmington, Wawa Station, Philadelphia International Airport, parks, trails, golf courses, wineries, and everyday conveniences. Additional highlights include a spacious two-car attached garage, generous guest parking, horse-friendly zoning, a 200+ amp electrical service with EV charging rough-in, and a successful tax assessment appeal that resulted in a significantly lower assessed value for the next owner. Join us at the property for an open house on Wednesday, July 22nd 4-7pm to see it for yourself.
