About This Home

As of June 2021

“New Song” This beautifully maintained 5 Bedroom, 4.1 bath plaster over stone farmhouse (circa 1854) is one of the first homes you see when rounding the bend on this country Doylestown road. Along with the main farmhouse, which has been expanded and updated ongoingly, the property offers a stone ice-house and spring house, barn/workshop building with 2 horse stalls, detached 3-car garage with carriage doors, additional storage building, and the original cedar-sided silo. Sweeping views to the rear allow for extreme privacy, and there is plenty of room for a pool, sports of any kind, animals or a few horses on this level, open, expansive property. The main home, was expanded in the 1930’s-1940’s and is finished with vintage pumpkin pine, heart pine, and oak wide board floors and newer cherry floors in the kitchen, 3 fireplaces, deep sill windows, tall ceiling height, two staircases, and generous room sizes on all three living levels. This fine home also allows for two en-suite main bedroom wings, if desired. Close to the kitchen area, which offers a butler’s pantry area and cozy windowed breakfast nook, is the gracious dining room. This stunning banquet-sized dining room features the original wood fireplace with chestnut lintel, and has been enhanced with two walls of French doors that lead to the wrap-around screened porch and flagstone patio-both perfect for outdoor entertaining! The living room is finished with a vintage pine paneled wall, stone & wood fireplace with an oak mantel, random oak floors and plenty of built-ins. Nearby is a comfortable family room with stone fireplace, and powder room, tucked under the stairwell. A handsome home office with vaulted open beamed ceiling & custom Edwardian paneling has its own separate glass enclosed entrance vestibule with flagstone flooring, ideal for greeting business associates right at home. The second floor offers 3 spacious bedrooms, each with its own tile bath. One has been newly updated with a marble shower with frameless shower doors. There is also a sewing or computer room, laundry and ample closet space. The charming third floor offers two additional bedrooms and one bath, along with eyebrow windows and convenient walk-in attic storage. Natural light is abundant throughout! The basement is clean, dry, well-insulated and outfitted with the best of utilities and mechanicals- 3 zones of geothermal HVAC (6 wells), 400 Amp. electric service, a whole house propane generator, new hot water heater, radon remediation system, and more. Outside, the barn/workshop building boasts 1000 sq. ft of space with a tall, vaulted ceiling and double doors at each end - ideal for the hobbyist - with ample storage for large vehicles or boats – and with a little TLC, the barn offers two nice stalls & a storage/hay loft. The numbers of improvements on this perpetually improved vintage home and property are remarkable, including a new eco-friendly drip irrigation septic system (approved and soon to be installed), new windows, new brick walkways, new roof on the barn & portions of the home, new garage doors w/remotes, new siding, new painting inside and out, and a new bonus parking area opposite the house- the list goes on! This inviting and much-loved farm allows privacy, convenience, Central Bucks Schools, and most of all, the opportunity to enjoy fun with family and friends for years to come!
