Description
This quintessential 1830s Bucks County stone farmhouse on 8.03 acres with coveted barn, indoor RV parking, corn-crib, pond, and in-ground swimming pool boasts 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, with tasteful updates throughout. The relative openness of the first floor - an anomaly in old farmhouses – allows for the living and entertaining spaces to flow easily, while still managing to maintain the wonderful level of warmth and coziness that you would expect from a traditional stone farmhouse. The kitchen is large and inviting with a huge stone fireplace, warm woods, and plenty of light that shines through the wall of windows in the large den, dining, and living room. It is bookended with a spacious laundry room/mud room combination, amply sized powder room, and butler’s pantry. There is a great and private flexible space at the bottom of the main staircase that could be used as an office, gym, or additional space for when, undoubtably, guests come to visit you. The primary suite is an unbelievable treat in this antique home: spacious, tons of natural light, large walk-in closet, and a spa-like bathroom with double vanity, soaking tub, and walk-in shower. The three additional bedrooms are charming with wonderful views and share two additional hall bathrooms. The outdoor spaces here will make your home the favorite gathering place for your friends and family - whether it be to make use of the barn that offers endless possibilities for all your hobbies, cars, trucks, four wheelers, and toys, or to enjoy barbecues on the large back patio while enjoying the 12 foot deep, salt water, gunite pool and surrounding area that offers expansive and panoramic views of the Bucks County countryside. The home has truly remarkable utility enhancements (making it the unicorn when it comes to old farmhouses): it has its own solar panels that generate electricity to off-set traditional electric costs (so much so, that the owners rarely have an electric bill), it was converted to public sewer in June of 2024, and is also on natural gas. A few additional bonus features (as if there could be more!) to note: the barn also has a large separate parking bay that will allow for your oversized RV or car collection, and the sellers believe (and have documentation) that an accessory dwelling is approved for the property. All of this just minutes from downtown Doylestown, 25 minutes to New Hope, and easy access to 611 & 413; this property offers the perfect balance of tranquility, country living, and convenience.
