1850 Chautauqua Trl Trail • Malvern, PA 19355

Perched nearly 700 feet above the Great Valley at 1850 Chautauqua Trail, this custom dovetail Canadian white pine log home is one of Chester County’s most unique private retreats, offering extraordinary elevation, privacy and panoramic views that can include the Philadelphia skyline on clear days. Set on approximately 5.4 acres, the gated residence combines authentic lodge architecture, passive solar design, and modern smart-home comforts across more than 5,600 square feet of finished living space. Crafted by Larry Palmer, the home showcases hand-hewn Canadian white pine logs with visible axe marks, tongue-and-groove pine ceilings, board-and-batten western red cedar accents, and oak and cherry hardwood floors. Southern exposure and engineered insulated concrete form (ICF) lower-level walls were designed to maximize winter sun and reduce summer heat gain, while structural insulated roof panels and Kolbe low‑E casement windows enhance energy performance. Inside, custom cabinetry and solid wood doors are found throughout, with notable millwork in the great room, kitchen, office, and lower level. The main level features an updated kitchen with new premium appliances, a dedicated dining room with custom wine rack, and a dramatic great room with massive stone fireplace and pellet stove insert, Sonos whole‑house audio and access to an expansive deck overlooking the stocked pond and forest. The main‑level primary suite offers a gas fireplace, primary full-bathroom with radiant heated floors, custom walk‑in closet and private deck with built‑in hot tub, beautiful outdoor shower and fire pit. Upstairs are two bedrooms, a Jack‑and‑Jill bath with radiant floors and a large office that can function as an additional bedroom. The walkout lower level continues the lodge ambiance with a theater room (Sony projector, large screen, premium surround sound), custom wet bar (including ice maker, dishwasher, microwave, beverage refrigerator), double gas fireplace, built‑ins and two additional bedrooms, all opening to an extensive patio, and stone walkway looking over the pond and waterfall. Mechanical and lifestyle highlights include Bryant Evolution high‑efficiency HVAC with propane backup, whole‑house generator, 2018 roof with copper gutters, heated floors in all full baths, brand‑new water heater, gated entry with Ring security, invisible dog fencing, mahogany front porch, extensive decks, mountain overlook patio, and an oversized three‑car garage.
