About This Home

As of November 2024

This distinguished brick front house welcomes you into a light filled home with spacious rooms, huge windows, beautiful millwork and a gracious ambiance. Lots of improvements have been made by the owners who bought the property before it was completed and have added the exquisite landscaping and other features during the years they have enjoyed this home. The formal living room and dining room flank the large foyer that leads to the 2-story family room featuring a Heat & Glo propane fireplace insert that can warm the main level. Soaring windows let in serene views of the changing seasons and highlight how private the setting is. The kitchen has been updated with Quartz countertops and ceramic tile flooring. Wood cabinetry, a desk area, an island and eating area combine to make it an outstanding chef’s domain. A first floor bedroom is often a plus and the office/den with a pocket door can be used as one. A bathroom with shower and a butler serving area are situated between the dining room and kitchen. Behind the kitchen is a door to the 2-car garage and a laundry room with access to the deck. Another wow is the huge primary suite with an en-suite bathroom. There are three closets in the bedroom/sitting area two of which are walk-ins. Closet space is everywhere and double ones are in the three other bedrooms on the second floor. The tiled hall bathroom completes this level. Another wonderful amenity of this gracious home is the lower level walk-out space with large windows that can be finished. Besides the many outstanding qualities of the house, the exterior also sets this home apart. The amazing and beautiful landscaping is a potpourri of specimen trees and shrubs and the vision of the owners. The deck is partially covered and there are doors to it from the family room, kitchen, and laundry room. In the large backyard is a fenced garden area. Grow vegetables, grape vines, flowers in your own greenhouse. Under the deck is a gravel area where a car or equipment can be stored. The walkways, the lighting, the stunning landscaping and the outdoor sitting areas were designed to create places in which you can dine, relax, meditate, and play. The rear lawn area can even be used for additional parking for large gatherings. This quality built home is close to New Hope-Solebury middle school, high school, supermarket, hardware store, pharmacy , gym ,bank,WAWA.and all the dining, eclectic shopping, entertainment and commuting roads of nearby New Hope, Lambertville and Bucks County. A path on Solebury Township land behind the house leads to the park and a canal bridge to the towpath for walking or biking. Here the living is special and easy. Welcome home!
