This handsome timber frame home sits on six private acres just a mile and half from the Delaware River & Canal State park in coveted Tinicum Township. Designed with both beauty and efficiency in mind, it features hardwood floors of quarter-sawn white ash, exposed wood beams, Pella double-paned windows and radiant heat throughout. At the heart of the first floor is a beautiful three-sided fireplace that perfectly defines the space between the living room and dining area, where French sliding glass doors open to the back yard and patio. The spacious kitchen features polished concrete countertops, plenty of custom cabinetry, and an oversized island with built-in induction cook top and convection oven. Just off the kitchen is a large pantry area for more storage as well as a full bath. The open staircase (with steel cable and 4-inch red oak treads) leads to the second floor, where you ll find two guest bedrooms, a full guest bath, laundry room, and a large master suite with soaring ceilings and two walk-in closets. The master bath features a double vanity, walk-in shower and a free-standing tub. High ceilings give the house an open, airy feel, and the monitor cupola at the top of the stairs brings in plenty of natural light while helping to cool the home in the summer. The unfinished basement has acid-etched & waxed concrete floors with radiant heat and a giant wood stove capable of heating the entire home. The 35 x 35 ft pole barn can be used to park four or more cars, or it could be converted to a guest house/studio (it's plumbed for radiant heat and has its own electric panel, water, and the septic system is sized for 4 bedrooms). Other house features include: Geothermal heating; instant hot water; high solar heat-gain coefficient south facing windows; eco-friendly insulation with zero thermal bridging; central AC; 10 x 16 shed for additional storage.
