About This Home

As of May 2021

This custom built Doylestown home is stately looking from the front for sure, but its real beauty lies inside and in the pool/deck area. It was purposely designed with practicality in mind. This spacious, 5 bedroom, 3 1/2 bath home is filled with natural light throughout the day. It somewhat typifies a "Doylestown Classic" center hall colonial with formal living and dining rooms on either side. But what makes it exceptional is the way the house flows, inside and out. There is a secondary front entrance into the house, a "kitchen office" area that leads to a set of backstairs, and an "artist's gallery" hall that subtly allows easy passage into any of the first floor rooms. In addition, this house was built in the tradition of the Bucks County farmhouse that includes views from front to back in each of the large first floor rooms. That front to back view is most notable in the expansive kitchen area with its white cabinets, center island and breakfast area. Generously sized rooms are repeated on the second floor in the bedrooms, bathrooms, closets and a walk-in attic (18x40) which lends itself to becoming a future home workspace, playroom or gym. Once outside the home, the natural flow extends from the inside to the magnificently fenced in pool area with its wood deck and concrete and bluestone patios. The deck and patios are easily accessed by either the vaulted ceiling breakfast room, the solarium (currently used as a pool-side dining room) with radiant heat or the vaulted ceiling sunroom. The sunroom shares with the living room, an especially attractive double facing gas fireplace. In addition, a primary feature of the house is the beautiful wood-burning stone fireplace in the very cozy and welcoming family room. This beautiful home is conveniently located and adjacent to the very charming borough of Doylestown with its shopping, restaurants and museums. It sits on 2.6 acres that includes some wooded areas and a large pool and spa surrounded by stunning landscaping. The outdoor experience by the pool can be enjoyed as an exciting and energetic fun place or as a peaceful private sanctuary. The large unfinished basement offers plenty of storage in addition to so many possibilities, and can be accessed from the home as well from the 4-car garage. Featuring remarkable space, a premium setting and conveniently located for access to NYC, Philadelphia and major routes, this exceptional home is a true classic in award-winning Central Bucks School District and ready to be a part of your next chapter.
