Property Description
Within an idyllic, secluded setting stands this 2-story, 4 bedroom, 2.1 bath stone and stucco historic manor farmhouse on 3.13 acres of open land edged with trees and greenery. A wide rocking chair porch, extends from the original stone section of the house and overlooks a gentle slope of land spotted by several tall trees creating a large canopy of shade on the side lawn. An in-ground pool, a barn, a spring-house and additional outbuildings are included. The gracious covered main entrance to the house opens to a center hall flanked by a library/office on one side and a generously sized living room with a fireplace on the other. The living and dining rooms are the original rooms of the house dating back to the 1700's. Antique doors, door hardware, built-in cabinetry, deep set windows, a cash drawer, crown molding and pumpkin pine floors are features seen in these rooms as well as throughout much of the house. A large stone walk-in fireplace is the centerpiece of the well-sized dining room. From the eating table in the kitchen one can linger over coffee while viewing glimpses of the neighboring pond, step down to the game room or ascend the pie stair to the 2nd floor. Two of the bedrooms each have a cozy fireplace. Featured in the master bedroom is a full wall of closets of standard depth. A full unfinished walk-up attic provides open space for storage or can be finished. The pool offers refreshment on a hot summer day and is adjacent to a small auxiliary building, well suited for a pool house. The barn, with original beams, creates over-sized garage space on the first level and incorporates a large open room on the second floor, flexible space that could be used for a party room, studio or hobby space. This secluded setting, in close proximity to excellent shopping, restaurants, medical services, recreational/entertainment venues and main road arteries, is a refuge. Commute to New York City, Philadelphia or destinations in between and return to this serene respite to de-stress and relax after a busy day. 4 working wood-burning fireplaces plus a wood stove; 12 zones of heat.
