About This Home

As of February 2022

Are you looking for a special retreat in Bucks County with an attached in-law suite and endless possibilities? Welcome to Keystone Country Home with 7 bedrooms, 5-1/2 bathrooms on 13+ fabulous acres. As you meander down the driveway, you’ll get a sense of the private setting this home offers. Don’t forget to notice the fenced pasture ready for horses! Come with your imagination as you enter into the 2 story foyer with a sweeping curved staircase. The great room with 30 ft ceiling, a handsome stone wall and a cozy woodburning stove will take your breath away, along with the views of your bucolic property. The modern kitchen offers a large island, double oven, 5 burner cooktop, an abundance of cabinetry and counterspace, space for a wine refrigerator, breakfast room and a butler’s area into the great room. The inspirational spiral staircase in the kitchen, leads you to the 2nd and 3rd floors. Enjoy the spacious dining room for entertaining and those special holidays. The tile flooring on main floor is with radiant heat. There is a first floor primary suite with walk-in closet, full bathroom and bonus room that would make a great fitness room, Zoom room or office. There is also a 2nd primary suite on the 2nd floor, along with a spacious 2nd floor landing overlooking the great room, two additional bedrooms with a Jack and Jill bathroom, and a bonus room to complete the 2nd floor. The third floor offers 2 more bedrooms, a full bathroom and a sitting area. We cannot forget the in-law suite (most recently used as a recording studio) which adds another bedroom, full bathroom, 2 story living room, full kitchen, private deck with ramp, and it’s own one car garage! The backyard has room to roam and comes with a grilling area and firepit. Let your imagination run free while making this property your own. The grounds have been kept fully organic and could be farmed. The front field is currently being farmed by a local farmer. Simple subdivision possibility. Home currently is Act 319 offering, allowing for reduced taxes. Easy access to major corridors including Rts 309 & 313, I-78, Northeast Extension. Minutes to shopping and restaurants. Home is being sold "as-is".
