Property Description
Step back in time to this lovely Bucks County Farmhouse. Meticulously maintained and thoughtfully upgraded, this home is a fine example of gracious living. Down a 1500' driveway to a gated entrance, the house is sited amidst professionally landscaped gardens, exquisite outbuildings, a pond, pool and stunning bluestone patio. As you enter the front door you are ushered into a spacious front hallway with marble floors and custom woodwork. Formal dining room offers views of the front gardens, while the living room beckons with a large walk in fireplace. Beyond the living room, the den features a woodburning stove, beamed ceilings, built in bookcases and entry to the rear gardens. The upper level of this 1780s farmhouse has a main bedroom with fireplace and beamed ceiling - reminiscent of country inns. A stunning bath features antique Belgium tiles, radiant heated floors, tapis style tiled floor and shower with seamless door. There are two additional bedrooms, plus a third bedroom with its own en suite bath with custom tile and handpainted sink in the style of Mackenzie Childs. The hall bath, recently remodeled, features radiant heated floor, custom antique tiles by Peter Behrens, bronze fixtures and custom copper sink and counters. The third floor features a large bedroom with sitting area and picture window - affording a panoramic view of the rear yard - encompassing the bluestone patio, pool and pond. There is also a small office/den, full bath, cedar lined closet and walk in storage closet. The pool house features a full kitchen. The bath has a mosaic tiled shower, vessel sink, sauna, and custom stone flooring. The living room has black bamboo flooring and access to the spacious sleeping loft. Wander through the yard back towards the house and you are greeted by a converted spring house, the top level of which has been converted to an office, 20 x 11. The lower level of the spring house is now a wine cellar with custom tiled flooring. The yard is suited for large scale entertaining. A large bluestone patio features discrete uplighting and views to the pool and pergola. The property also features a large pond, often referred to as "Fox Pond" with fountains and currently stocked with koi - a peaceful retreat enhanced by the gazebo nearby.
