About This Home

As of May 2024

This utterly charming and beautifully updated single level home is set in coveted Buckland Valley Farms, a quiet and established community just minutes to New Hope and Washington Crossing. A paver walkway leads to a sweet covered front porch. Original, gleaming hardwood floors and abundant sunlight greet you when you enter and continue through the home. The expansive living room spans the depth of the house and features a fieldstone fireplace with pellet stove insert for those cool winter evenings, and the lovely formal dining room with sunny bay window and chair rail makes for easy entertaining. The gorgeous kitchen is truly the heart of the home boasting granite counters, stainless steel appliances and tile backsplash. Abundant storage includes a walk-in pantry, and a large peninsula overlooking the bright breakfast room, with large bay window framing backyard views. A large, yet cozy family room is tucked off the kitchen and offers a floor-to-ceiling fireplace, original built-in cupboards, and direct access to the driveway for added convenience. Watch the seasons change from the fantastic screened-in porch, with recessed lighting and a ceiling fan, that opens to the large maintenance-free deck overlooking the fully fenced-in backyard. Set on over half an acre, there is plenty of room for gardening, pets, and outdoor activities. On the other side of the home, the private quarters include the serene primary bedroom suite, with ensuite powder room, two additional lovely bedrooms, and a full hall bathroom. Find abundant bonus living space in the finished basement plus a full bathroom, clean/dry storage, and Bilco-style doors to backyard. Perfect spaces for a guest room, gym, media room, or home office. The walk-up attic offers even more storage options, and with full stairs and great headroom, it is waiting to be finished. Central air, attached 2-car garage, main floor laundry. Enjoy easy living in this move-in ready home, and spend your weekends relaxing in the back yard or exploring the history and beauty of surrounding Bucks County.
