Covered Bridge Farm -- Sitting back from the road in all its vintage splendor, this stone house with a sweeping front porch is exceptional with original architectural features, modern conveniences, and a stunning first floor addition. Ideal as a full-time residence or a get-away second home, it overlooks the Erwinna Covered Bridge, one of the few remaining examples of this type. From the front door, step into the foyer and notice the original curved banister on the staircase. To the left is the parlor (living room) with a wood burning fireplace with Mercer tiles. A bathroom with shower was built beneath the staircase, and the other large room is now used as a great room. Once a dining room (always the largest room in the 1800s) casual or formal dining can be incorporated into this multi-purpose space. The kitchen was upgraded in 2022 with Silestone countertops and recessed lighting. The heart of this home has a Viking range and is large enough for a table and chairs or perhaps an island for food prep, serving, eating. The focal point is the walk-in fireplace with raised panel wood doors that close and a side door from the driveway opens into the kitchen for convenience. Completing the first floor is the 2019 stunning addition that adds another dimension to this beautiful home. Vaulted ceiling with beams, a stone wall that was once the exterior, large windows, and a door out to a patio overlooking the bridge. Upstairs are two generous sized bedrooms each with an updated bathroom. A staircase in the kitchen goes up to a laundry area and the main bedroom suite. This home has incredible flexibility on how each room can be used to suit your lifestyle and needs. Rooms are spacious, floors are painted pumpkin pine, there is original hardware in some areas, large deep sill windows provide natural light and views of changing seasons. The exterior is wonderful for relaxing and entertaining. There is a 3-sided shed, an enclosed pasture in which sheep and chickens roam, two bluestone patios, walkways and many new trees and beautiful landscaping were added. The remnants of stone walls enclose a large, open area and await your creative ideas for making this area an unique place. The specialness of this property is the retention of timeless features that provide character and a relaxed ambiance. Rolling lawn areas, a creek, a quiet country road, and history are the distinguished features of this home. Steeped in history and the love of a family that owned it for many generations, it is an exceptional property that provides quiet country living with close proximity to the many exciting surrounding towns and areas that make living in Upper Bucks County a great location. The house, the setting, amenities, and location will delight you. Welcome home!

Village Bridge Farm is a wonderful example of classic Bucks County Stone Farmhouse. This Circa 1850's home sits at the edge of the sleepy river village of Erwinna, Pennsylvania. This was an overnight stop for the mule drawn barges that ran 60 miles of canal and towpath, bringing anthracite coal from Easton to Philadelphia. The last lock toll was paid in 1931, almost 86 years ago, and the tow path and canal are now part of the Delaware River Park System. At one time Erwinna provided shelter and food for the weary canal workers. Today Erwinna provides a refuge for those seeking a kinder, laid back lifestyle, and the opportunity to recharge and renew. Handsome home sits on a lovely 8 acre parcel and overlooks another Bucks County Treasure, The Erwinna Covered Bridge. This bridge is one of the remaining 11 covered bridges that still stands in Bucks County today. The bridge, the stream and this lovely home have been the inspiration of many Bucks County Artists as the personification of what "Bucks County" is all about. The home itself is over 2400 square feet and combine the unique architectural details that represent the quality of 18th Century construction practices along with a sense of style and sophistication that is most inviting. It is a wonderful blend that is perfect for entertaining. The rooms throughout are quite large and sun filled. The spacious eat in kitchen has a walk in fireplace as the focal point of the room. Doors lead from the kitchen to the rear terrace and a spiral rear staircase takes you to the Master Suite. Adjacent Formal Dining Room will accomodate large dinner parties.
