About This Home

As of October 2020

Wonderful opportunity to live and work in Doylestown! The Melinda Cox House, circa 1829, exudes all of the grace and charm of yesteryear yet offers all of the modern amenities for today's lifestyle. Thoughtful updates have ensured the integrity of this historic brick Victorian with spacious rooms, 9' ceilings, pumpkin pine floors, original moldings and exposed beams and brick. Full bathrooms are located on both the first and second floors. Central air. 3 fireplaces with gas hookup available.Wood floors were just refinished on first floor. Entire home painted in neutral colors. The laundry room is conveniently located on the first floor. Upstairs the bedrooms are uncharacteristically large, one of which offers an adjoining sitting/dressing room. Another bedroom has a fireplace. The finished attic contains the fourth bedroom with angled ceilings, built-in storage compartments and a dormer window. A deck with built-in flower boxes steps down to a "circular" patio & koi pond invites out-door entertaining. Enjoy all that the coveted lifestyle of living in the Boro has to offer: fine dining, theater, quaint shops, parks and even award-winning Central Bucks School District. $25k credit to upgrade kitchen and baths for acceptable agreement of sale. Central Residential zoning permits office use as well.
