Property Description
In the pantheon of Delaware's Chateau Country estates, Chevannes, circa 1926, is the only one with both du Pont family provenance and authentic French architecture. The secluded 7+ acre property lies directly across from Winterthur and boasts the same architect. Solid masonry construction, stately proportions, and exceptional architectural detail and appointments define its essential character. An uncharacteristic, circular floor plan challenges the colonial-inspired norm and increases the elegance factor. Meticulously maintained and updated, the house offers 7 bedrooms, most with en suite baths, and formal rooms that redefine grand: a walnut-paneled library/living room and a grand foyer that is reminiscent of many great French homes; both summon guests into a stately dining room with two marble fireplaces. An enormous pantry with the original walk-in vault connects the dining room to a large kitchen with top-of-the-line appliances. French doors open to broad terraces facing formal gardens; in-ground pool; 3-car heated garage. The architect constructed this property of stucco over solid masonry (limestone) with limestone quoined corners.
