On
a property overflowing with history and charm, is this stucco
and stone home with the original foundation dating back to 1798.
A twelve-acre
plus property, down a quiet back country road in Upper Bucks
County, is surrounded by farmlands and mature trees.
Nestled
next to a grove of pines, the home features cozy and uniquely
historical features. From wainscoting to exposed stonewalls,
rough-hewn ceilings and beams to large windows with deep windowsills,
this home inspires and welcomes. The family room, with woodstove,
exposed stonewalls and a built-in glass cupboard has double
doors leading out to the deck, and both share the view of the
spring fed stocked pond and surrounding acreage. You can enjoy
the beauty and change of seasons comfortably. A home office
adjoins the family room, also with stonewalls. The large, comfortable,
eat-in country kitchen has a woodstove with bricked walls and
plenty of cupboards and views of farmlands.
An old
glass door with transom windows leads from the kitchen to the
formal dining room. Original wainscoting, deep windowsills and
built-in shelving above the entryway to the living room give
it a more formal feel for entertaining. The living room is light
and airy with three big windows and deep sills. There are two
stairways to the second floor; the master bedroom having its
own. You step down into the master bedroom with bath and plaster
walls. There is a bedroom of exposed stone, rough-hewn ceiling
and beams with lots of light from 3 windows. Another room and
bath are located on this floor.
A third floor finished
attic space, naturally divided into two separate spaces can
serve as guest quarters, a home office, library or a sitting
or sewing room.
In addition
to the home are four outbuildings; one currently used as a workshop
and could be a great artist's studio, a barn just waiting for
horses, and a garage.
There is
quiet and seclusion and freedom to wander your property and
make it a gentleman's farm…or the perfect getaway. The potential
is limitless.
