Description

Come see a 19th century farmhouse with old world charm mixed with Bucks County folk craftsmanship - from etched stained-glass windows, to the Mercer tile hearth, to the hand railing made from pipe. The current basement opens out to ground level in rear, where the earliest construction (c.1850) probably began in a room with open fireplace, then built up 2 stories, later expanding to the current “T” formation. Enjoy old glass in Italianate style windows. Experience the classic warmth of exposed brick and old hardwood in the sunroom with flagstone floor. The eat- in kitchen with brick hearth and wood stove also boasts a laundry and powder room. There is plenty of character in the bay window with window seat and random width pine flooring in the dining/all purpose room. A bonus room, currently a cedar-paneled home office, could also become a bedroom or playroom. Upstairs there are two spacious bedrooms with great closet space, and a 3rd bedroom steps down from the main hall, but formerly was accessed by circular stairs from the kitchen in the original structure (stairs were closed off and made into a closet). Today, access the large attic with quaint quarter-moon windows, by the original winding staircase!The exterior of the property is adorned with local stone and brickwork paths, and mature landscaping. Dabble in the homesteading lifestyle with the classic chicken coop, perfect for cultivating your own fresh eggs! Zoned village center, and with 2 access points from the road there is opportunity for the potential entrepreneur. Also experience the Revere General Store, a deli, pizzeria, post office and more, literally on your doorstep! A park with walking trails and playground is within walking distance. This location is also central to 3 airports, the Lehigh Valley, Frenchtown , New Hope, and Doylestown, all within a 30-minute drive, and the commute to NYC and Philadelphia is reasonable.Don't miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a piece of history and experience the ambiance of Bucks County living. Bring your vision and creativity to make this home your own.
