Set along a country road in scenic Upper Bucks County, Magnolia Cottage rests on nearly ten idyllic acres blending fields, woods and cleared land. Recalling a simpler, unhurried lifestyle, the charming slate roofed cottage dates to the 1840’s. Beamed ceilings, deep silled windows and gleaming pine floors are found in the living room with a wood burning fireplace. Steps away, the kitchen is equipped with wood cabinetry and cozy eat in space. An adjacent laundry area and full bath complete the freshly painted main level. Pie stairs lead to another full bath and sun filled bedrooms with wood floors and built in storage on the upper levels. A charming, covered side porch overlooks the pretty yard, dotted with mature trees and wildlife visitors, the perfect spot to sip a morning brew and start the day. An inground swimming pool, garden shed, and detached one car garage enhance the land. The acreage beckons lifestyle farmers, gardening enthusiasts, and nature lovers in general. Low taxes and a prime location minutes from Delaware River towns offer an abundance of nearby dining, shopping, and recreational choices. The potential to expand exists or simply retreat to this quiet and uncomplicated haven 90 minutes from NYC and an hour from Philadelphia.
