About This Home

As of September 2019

Be prepared to fall in love! Your ideal rustic retreat awaits. Set on a scenic four acre wooded lot, this home offers privacy without sacrificing modern convenience thanks to a great location just minutes from the Quakertown Exchange of Interstate 476. A long driveway guides you around a delightful fish pond with a stone waterfall and along the expansive lawn to the home itself. An A-Frame style covered porch overlooks the front yard and a gorgeous glass and screen enclosed rear porch off the kitchen both with composite decking are ideal places to relax while listening to the sounds of nature. Upon entering, you are greeted by a cozy foyer with porcelain tile floor before entering a spacious living room accented by a wood-burning floor to ceiling porcelain tile fireplace with extended hearth and ceiling fan. Quality laminate wood flooring and custom woodwork can be found throughout this beautiful home. A nicely sized bedroom is just off the living room, also offering an ideal space for a guest room or a home office, and an expansive center hall style dining room has plenty of room for hosting large dinner parties or could be used as a game room depending on your needs. It also features stairs to the lower level, sliding doors to the front porch, and opens to a spacious eat-in kitchen that boasts a large breakfast area with sliding door to the back porch, stainless steel appliances, Armstrong laminate tile floor, custom-built center island, extensive custom wood countertop and ample cabinetry with custom made solid wood doors and Euro-style soft close hinges. All the custom woodwork in the kitchen was made from wood harvested on the property itself. A full bath with vessel sink, laundry room, large bedroom with ceiling fan and an expansive owner's suite with walk-in closet and luxurious private bath with jetted tub, dual vanity, beautifully upgraded fixtures and walk-in shower with seat complete the first floor. This home also features a walk-out daylight basement that is finished and approved as a legal in-law suite / tenant permitted unit, something that is exceedingly hard to find. The lower level features a full kitchen with Armstrong laminate tile floor, a spacious living room / dining room combo, a large bedroom, a full bath and laundry as well as tons of closet space. The first level also features access to the over-sized 2 car garage, a utility room and a huge storage room. Additional features of this amazing home include ceiling fans throughout, pull down stairs to the attic, underground utilities, generator with automatic switch-over option, central vacuum system, exterior sprinkler system, and a 40 x 48 pole barn with 200-amp service, steel beam, skylights and wood stove and so much more. Words just can't do this home justice though. You need to see it for yourself in person to truly appreciate its beauty.
