French Country Bank Home! A unique 1830s bank house, with 3 levels of living designed by a European artist/designer located in a lovely river village of Pt. Pleasant, 15 minutes from New Hope and Doylestown, Pa. The owner has expressed creativity in a delightful 3 dimensional Matisse. Perfectly adopted to modern living with wide plank floors, antique doors and pie shaped staircase it includes a living room with a Vermont casting stove. The main bedroom (or gathering room) opens to a deck that overlooks a perennial garden and a sea of ferns. Next to it is a master bathroom, there is plenty of closet space in both of these rooms. Also on the same floor is a smaller bedroom and another full bath. Going up the pie stairs you pass a former photography darkroom (ideal for a wine cellar, collections, or more storage space). On the top floor is an expansive bedroom with a beamed high ceiling and a loft. A half bathroom completes this level. On the ground level there is a one-of-a-kind French County kitchen with plenty of Danish Blue cabinets and beautiful Italian and Mercer tile counters. Adjacent to the kitchen is the ‘tea and crumpet room’ for dining while overlooking the expansive gardens. This room leads directly to the ground level circular brick patio perfect for outdoor eating or hammock time. An additional bonus/multipurpose room, used currently as an office and laundry room is located on this ground level. Step out to a stone patio that leads through the gardens, to a large heated Amish built studio perfect for an art, wellness or craft studio. The home is two minutes from the Delaware River with fishing, canal walks and a bicycle path to New Hope and Frenchtown, and kayaking on the Tohickon creek. This is a perfect location for a full time residence or great weekender. NYC or Philadelphia are easy to reach by bus or train. Zoning is Village Center (VC) which allows for a mix of uses. Available for a short term rental. .please inquire for details.
