Enchanting 18th Century New Hope country retreat in bucolic Bucks County . The charm of the original fieldstone and clapboard home is enhanced by two masterful additions including a spacious and sunny kitchen, stately living room, and lovely main bedroom suite. This is truly a four-season home designed for entertaining inside and out. Outdoor spaces include an entry courtyard with fountain, brick veranda with pergola and fountain, expansive back yard with a wide array of mature trees, open fenced lawn to run, and boxwood gardens. On the first floor, the living room includes custom cabinetry, painterly light, French doors to the brick veranda, and elegant stair to the master suite. The kitchen includes granite counters, stainless steel appliances, and “Living Quarters” cabinets typical of high-end Bucks County farmhouse renovations. The cozy family room tends to hold one captive with a good book or great film enjoyed by the fire. Two staircases lead to four bedrooms and 3 full baths and upstairs laundry. The master suite is easy to love with its many custom closets and a spacious bath. The walk-up Basement is of modern construction and includes storage and gym. The home has been lovingly maintained and improved by the current stewards. This property is excellently situated 5 minutes to New Hope, 45 minutes to Philadelphia, and 90 minutes to NYC.
