About This Home

As of August 2014

Remarkably beautiful circa 1790 stone colonial farmhouse graciously restored with gorgeous original architectural details that exude charm and character. Inside this six bedroom and two and a half bath home, you'll find four working fireplaces, both reclaimed and exposed beams in kitchen and den ceilings, newly refinished glam hardwood floors through out all three floors, rare curved deep window sills, new powder room addition, mudroom/laundry room and fantastic screened in porch. The well configured eat in kitchen features cherry cabinetry and black honed granite counters and leads out to a serene stone terrace overlooking sweeping lawns. The breath taking landscape features specimen plantings, meticulous perennial gardens, stately trees all leading down to a peaceful stream at lower end of property. Spacious driveway for parking and a detached two car garage. An entertainer's dream backdrop. Sited on almost an acre of meticulous grounds in Whitpain Township, this historically significant home is conveniently located near Ambler's bustling restaurants, train station, and major highways. Designer owned and decorated, shows with character and charm.
