Property Description
Sited down a long gravel drive this 14-acre Upper Bucks County country compound is comprised of 19th century antique buildings centered around the classic 3-bedroom Victorian farm house with clapboard siding and working shutters, and historic charm topped with modern amenities delivering a chic and well-designed interior. Located near the Delaware River in the hills of rural Durham Township, a farming community with history dating back to pre-Revolutionary times, the subdividable land is ideal for horses and offers spring-fed pond and open fields, wonderful garden landscaping and trails through the woods. The bucolic grounds can be enjoyed from the rocking chair front porch and adjoining brick terrace, and from every room on the main level, as each opens to the outdoors through French doors and antique glass panel doors! Inside, the light-filled interior flows effortlessly from living room with oak floors and white-washed exposed beams, chair rail molding and wainscoting to the sunroom with wall of south-facing windows and white-washed vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and wide-plank oak floors. The country kitchen is cozy but large with ample Corian counters, stainless appliances including 6-burner propane cooking, raised-hearth stone fireplace and side covered porch. Oak floors continue through to the dining room with detail molding and charming corner cabinet. Upstairs are three bedrooms, including the main bedroom with full tiled bathroom and upstairs dressing room/walk-in closet. The bright hall bath with claw foot tub is large and tiled. The collection of outbuildings offers multiple guest accommodations and work or pleasure related pursuits. Original stone settler's cottage is the perfect guest suite with main room walk-in fireplace and kitchenette, upstairs bedroom and full bath with pedestal sink and claw foot tub. The studio has entry room with exposed stone and concrete floor and upstairs studio or bedroom with open-beam ceiling and skylights, plus a full bath with pedestal sink and claw foot tub. The hobby house offers a terracotta tiled main room with kitchenette plus a full bath. Carriage House is currently used as office space with painted concrete floor, workshop area and extensive 2nd floor storage space, but is easily returned to a 2-car garage. Crowning the property is the magnificent 50x40 stone bank barn with 4 horse stalls. Immerse yourself in the rural country lifestyle for weekends or forever!
