VISIT FOR THE VIEWS, stay for the style. This custom home was built by James Balliet. The home is a welcome retreat from a fast-paced world and is 15 years newer than the original Durham Hills Farms development. Views from this 2 acre parcel rival those from any Bucks County farm. 28 Andersen windows with four sets of sliders fill the home with sunshine and breezes. There's 3/4" hardwood flooring over 3/4" plywood creating one of the most solid construction you will visit! The use of Parallam beams by Weyerhaeuser allows for superior strength and longer spans throughout the home. The under-pining of all the ceramic tile is WonderBoard providing high flexural strength and moisture resistance. Kitchen includes stainless appliances and features a double oven and a five burner cook-top. Incredible master suite with multiple closets can be further accented by the completion of space creating an exercise area over the garage. Outside living includes custom built terraces, porches and balconies surrounding a sparkling pool. A fabulous finished basement (photo from prior listing) provides a game room and bar/refrigerator, with separate space dedicated for a third full bathroom . All three levels include Nu-Tone central vacuum, and a generator by Generac keeps things running in a power outage. This is an incredible opportunity to be within 80 minutes of either NYC or Philadelphia, yet 5 minutes to the River. Agents- prior to showing: please ask your buyers to complete, Covid-HSA & Covid-PAN forms. Visiting guests limited to 3 people (Buyers' agent plus two) .

RP
Resource Protection District
To protect areas consisting largely of natural features such as mature forest, steep slopes, scenic areas, wetlands, streams, floodplains and ponds including those identified in the latest version of the Bucks County Natural Resources Plan. Intensities are such as to insure that these resources are preserved, while providing for residential development with suitable sewage disposal. The land contained in this district is identified in the Durham Township Comprehensive Plan and the Bucks County Comprehensive Plan as those parts of the Township which contain important natural resource features and/or historic areas which have only a limited capacity for development. Wherever possible the growth of the Township and the County must respect these limitations. Good planning dictates that growth be channeled into those areas that can best accommodate it without damage to the environment or risking the health, safety and welfare of present and future generations.
