Gorgeous setting of rolling fields by pristine Cooks Creek, a cold water trout stream, graces this circa 1813 stone farmhouse nestled on 8 acres. Period hardware, mullioned windows, wide plank floors, raised panel doors all blend to create a charming warm interior.
There are four bedrooms, a large formal dining room for entertaining and a third floor office, study or library. A commanding Great Room addition to the house features wraparound floor to ceiling windows, built-in bookshelves flanking a huge stone fireplace and slate floors with radiant heat. This room overlooks and incredible private vista and out onto a flagstone patio area fronting a lily pond for koi. From the inside out, a home meant for living and enjoying all year, all seasons.
Pointed stonewalls surround the home and a captivating ivy-covered stone guesthouse with walk-in fireplace, Italian limestone full bath, beamed ceiling and Pennsylvania blue slate floors with radiant heat was the former summer kitchen on the property.
A courtyard elegantly skirts the outbuildings that include a bank barn with 3-car garage and workshop and a stone potting shed with heated growing beds destined to turn even the reluctant to gardening.
This unique property resides in the farm estate section of Upper Bucks County… in an area of million-dollar homes.
