Property Description
Feel the quiet serenity of this pristine 4 acre property as you wind past pond views and trees... set far back off the road and up a gentle hill, the house greets you as you pull onto the circular drive lined with gardens and trees...The few remaining Tudor elements of the original construction could be easily removed for a more classic home look and support the solid brick and hardi plank construction that already exists . The stucco on the rear of the house is on block walls. Many of the southern facing windows have been replaced recently with Smart Glass. As you enter the foyer through the hand carved front door, your first glimpse is of the marble floor, soaring ceilings and curved staircase. An office is on your left and the oversized dining room with vaulted ceiling and gorgeous chandelier is on your right. The connecting large living room with crystal chandelier and wall of glass brings the outside beauty into the space. There are 2 primary bedrooms - one on the first floor next to the living room (with additional sitting room which could be a 4th bedroom) - and the other primary is on the second floor with huge bath containing sauna, shower and soaking tub. There is a large walk in closet and fireplace for cozy winter nights too.Back on the main floor, there is a powder room off the gourmet kitchen with breakfast area and wood burning stove which includes top of the line appliances, and a second Bakers Kitchen with pantry next t o the main kitchen . It is part of the large family room and leads to the all glass Florida room which enjoys views of the back of the property and terraces. If one takes the stairs down to the finished lower level, there is a stone fireplace, family room, wet bar backing on to a kitchen that serves the family room and gazebo. There is a full bath and bedroom with egress and large windows. The family room opens onto the terrace with hardscaping and an impressive post and beam, copper roofed gazebo with lighting and fan. The views from the gazebo look over the gently sloping lawn, vegetable garden with asparagus bed, and astro turf play area for games and sun bathing! Birds galore greet you and the serenity of the property can be fully appreciated.On the far side of the property, up a quiet wooded pathway is a fantastic 2 story post and beam barn for cars, kayaks, a gym, a wood shop... anything you can imagine!!! There is secure covered space for it!! Walk up the hill to enjoy the gorgeous views of an agriculturally eased Historic farm property. Sit by the firepit and take in the silences and peaceful views of meadows, trees and the farmer's valley.Add to all this a meticulously maintained home, geothermal system, solar panels for low utility bills, gorgeous hardwood floors, generous floorplan and so much natural light you will see why the current owners are loath to leave. It is its own 4 acre paradise yet minutes from stores, schools and the historic Quaker village of Marlborough. The Cheslen Preserve and the Red Clay Alliance (formerly the BVA) are walking or biking or a short drive distance away.

HUD Foreclosures

HUD foreclosures and VA Foreclosures are some of the best homes to buy when price is part of the equation. As with most Americans, price is always a concern. If not buying the same house for less, why not buy more house for the same dollar invested? When looking for a good deal it is hard to do better than the VA or HUD foreclosures market. The simple truth is that there are just more VA and HUD homes on the market, as they represent such a large number of mortgages that are generated each year. This translates into more foreclosures just by the magnitude of difference between all others comparing to the two largest. The two largest also being government owned and operated means that they have less time to wait to make money back on the home. The FHA is especially known for selling HUD homes for less than the average sales price in a given area. FHA foreclosures represent a fraction of HUD but they are still a significant number of homes and both should be considered. VA (Veterans Administration) and HUD (Housing and Urban Development) have different and unique opportunities for the buyer. Both are often forgiven for the local taxes normally associated with the purchase of a home (this is on a county by county basis). Be sure to ask the local title company or escrow company to look into it for you before closing as this is often missed due to their are not used to dealing with the 2 to 3 percent of the market that VA and HUD foreclosures represent.

Foreclosure Listings Increasing

As the market settled after the mortgage meltdown foreclosure listings also settled and fewer homes were on the market with a placard reading “Bank Foreclosure” in big red lettering. This was a good thing for the entire real estate market. Having an abundance of foreclosures brings the entire market down and it makes it harder for home owners, who would like to move, to get the appropriate price for their home as a similar home down the same street was sold for substantially less and the appraiser is using the foreclosure as a comparable sale. This is just one of the problems when there are too many foreclosure listings in any area. Another issue is the television set that sits in everyone’s living room harping about the price of homes based on the number of foreclosures and this constant barrage of negative information makes most people sit on the sidelines waiting for the market to either implode completely or to correct itself. Meanwhile while they wait, others are buying foreclosure listings and making great investments. Whatever the reason, a market can only handle so many foreclosure listings at any given time. The more foreclosures, the lower the market gets and this is a lesson the banks that were foreclosing and selling off realized too late. The market and their investments would have been better off if there had not been a rush to divest themselves of the toxic assets made more toxic by their own actions.
