Property Description
A long tree-lined drive is entrance to the almost 25 preserved acres that surrounds this Bucks County Gentleman's Estate. Tucked away among evergreens and mature landscaping, this wonderful 1800's stone colonial has been embellished as time demanded, while retaining all the charm of its Pennsylvania heritage. Positioned on a knoll, every window overlooks sweeping lawns, fenced pastures, meandering stream and private woodlands. At every side of the house there is a patio or porch that beckons one to linger, with a good book and a glass of wine, and enjoy these bucolic vistas. True to its history, the interior boasts rich random width floors, open beamed ceilings, a butterfly staircase, deep windows and a magnificent walk-in fireplace. Inspired by the home's 1848 character, the recently remodeled kitchen has maple cabinets, stainless appliances, granite counters with glass backsplash? adding architectural interest. A first floor bedroom and bath, with a private porch, is in the addition. Three additional bedrooms, two staircases, two fireplaces, and two family rooms offer plenty of room for family and friends. For those with special interests, this is also a premier equestrian estate. There is a lighted outdoor ring and a lighted indoor riding arena with an attached lounge and tack room. The original 1800's bank barn has been fully updated to offer an additional tack room, heated and air conditioned office, twelve stalls and an exterior courtyard opening to a utility building ? all in excellent order. A separate four-stall barn and six pastures complete the picture.
