About This Home

As of February 2014

You thought that you couldn't afford a home like this, but you can! Take a look at this fantastic value in a beautiful community of upscale homes just a minute outside of Doylestown Borough. What a great buy-properties in this area have recently sold for much more. The home has so many luxury options: Custom floors through using several different kinds of sustainable treatments, finished basement with kitchen facilities, steam shower and changing area, dramatic custom lighting, custom tile, in ground pool with spa and waterfall, 2 tier Trex deck, whole house generator, family Room with gas fireplace and so much more. The Master Suite is particularly grand, with a spacious sitting room with a balcony overlooking the dramatic center hall. Along with the great closets, the master suite also features an amazing bath with raised whirlpool tub. The best part is that you can enjoy your soaking for as long as you want with the tankless "on demand" hot water system. A very efficient system, it saves money not having a hot water heater that is constantly running. No matter how much water you need for enjoying the bubbles, it will always be hot and ready. The home also features a main floor office, completely updated kitchen with walls of windows and skylights, main floor laundry room, unusually spacious bedrooms and an impressive center hall entrance! Take advantage of this great deal.
