About This Home
A scenic drive leads to Forebay, a one-of-a-kind converted stone barn surrounded by more than 10 private acres in Buckingham Township's Spring Valley Historic District. Here, mornings begin with coffee overlooking Watson Creek, afternoons are spent wandering garden paths and relaxing beneath mature trees, and evenings gather friends around the covered patio, summer kitchen, and hot tub beneath a canopy of landscape lighting. Originally built circa 1805 and thoughtfully converted into a residence, the home combines authentic Bucks County character with the comforts buyers expect today. Soaring ceilings, exposed chestnut beams, stone walls, skylights, and walls of glass create spaces that feel both dramatic and welcoming. Designed for entertaining and multigenerational living alike, the home offers expansive gathering areas, private guest accommodations, and seamless connections between indoor and outdoor spaces. A whole-house generator, seven-zone heating system and updated infrastructure provide peace of mind whether the property serves as a full-time residence or a country retreat. Located just minutes from the restaurants, galleries, boutiques, and cultural attractions of New Hope and Doylestown, Forebay offers the Bucks County lifestyle that continues to attract discerning buyers from New York, New Jersey, Philadelphia, and beyond.
