About this home
Tucked behind a gated entrance along one of New Hope-Solebury’s most coveted roads, this exceptional architectural estate offers an extraordinary sense of privacy across more than 12 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds. Crafted by acclaimed builder Ferman Lex, the four-bedroom residence features five full baths and two powder rooms, surrounded by mature trees, lush plantings, and professionally designed gardens. Thoughtfully enhanced by the current owners, the property has benefited from a significant investment in both the home and grounds, including a new roof and a newly reimagined poolhouse. The resort-like outdoor setting is designed for both relaxation and entertaining, with expansive decking, a saltwater pool and spa, and the new poolhouse complete with a kitchen, half bath, and outdoor shower. Inside, a versatile floor plan provides an effortless balance of formal and casual spaces, creating an inviting environment for intimate gatherings, entertaining on a grand scale, or simply enjoying the tranquility of the estate. Refined finishes, generous living spaces, and thoughtful amenities throughout reflect the level of quality expected of a truly exceptional property. With its private setting, sophisticated architecture, extensive outdoor amenities, and proximity to major metropolitan destinations, this is a rare opportunity to experience the best of Bucks County living. Approximately 70 minutes from New York City, 55 minutes from Philadelphia, and 35 minutes from Princeton. Photos were taken prior to the new roof and pool house updates.
