Property Description
This majestic stone farmhouse became the subject for one of Bucks County's most renowned artists and continues to inspire the creativity and beauty synonymous to this area. Providence Farm, built in the 1800's as evidenced by the cornerstone, has retained many of its original features and all 32 of its original acreage. This enticing property not only provides priceless serenity, but offers many opportunities to pursue various agricultural and cultural interests. Purists will savor the slate and tin roofs, pumpkin pine floors, deep window sills, transoms above and threshold stones below the doors with paneled scuncheons, built-ins throughout, exposed beams and stone walls. There are five fireplaces throughout the home. A sunroom with panoramic views of the inground pool, pond and rolling pastures leads out to a flagstone terrace complemented by stone walls and picturesque scenery. The Roger Wright custom kitchen includes both granite and wood counters, stainless steel appliances, and a center island with seating. The main floor master suite is a sanctuary in itself; with a separate den and luxurious spa bath. French doors in the 2-story master bedroom open upon a private stone terrace overlooking one of two spring-fed ponds. Two sets of kite winder stairs provide access to the 2nd floor bedrooms, where a princess suite could also serve as an optional master bedroom. The other two bedrooms share a hall bath. The walk-up attic is floored and could possibly be finished for additional living space. Many original structures remain and have been cleverly incorporated into today's modern world; a secret garden is anchored by the stone ruins of an old building, the springhouse now contains the pool equipment, while the chicken coop shields the fuel tank from view. A portion of the main floor of the bank barn serves as a 2-car garage, while the remainder could house livestock. The upper loft has a 2 bedroom rented apartment with 1 car garage which looks out onto pastoral scenery. Currently under Act 319, this property is adaptable to a great many uses and poses endless possibilities for equestrian pursuits, organic farming, a gentleman's farm, or country retreat. Abundant wildlife for the nature enthusiast - an ideal setting for those inspired by beauty and ambiance. Located just west of the Delaware River and quaint river villages, this is as convenient as country living gets. Drivable to NY and Philly. Seller is licensed Realtor
