About This Home

As of August 2021

Located in the heart of Spring Valley, Buckingham Township (recently rated the third safest town in America!) is this beautiful, early stone farmhouse. Set on almost 4 ½ acres, this small farm is perfect for the quintessential country life-animals, chickens and gardening! Newly equipped with a Briggs and Stratton generator, this stately stone house dates back to the late 1700’s. Featuring stone walls, beamed ceilings, deep window sills and wood floors this home is loaded with charm. The later additions compliment the original part of the house with higher ceilings and central AC. SHOWINGS BEGIN SUNDAY JUNE 6. The first floor has a fabulous flow for entertaining. The breakfast area and kitchen flow into the large dining room which all access the rear brick patio and pergola. Expansive living room with beamed ceiling is bathed in sunlight all day long with windows galore. A large stone fireplace with barn beam mantle and bluestone hearth has new Heat n Glo gas insert that will keep you toasty all winter long. Third bonus room can be used as an additional dining room, tasting room or game room and also has a new Heat n Glo gas fireplace. This room accesses the large front brick terrace that overlooks beautiful Spring Valley. The laundry room has a convenient full bath so if you’re coming in from the barn or the garden you can make a pit stop there and not track dirt through your house! The second floor boasts three bedrooms and 2 full baths with a large landing that makes a great office. There are beamed ceilings and ample closet space. Everyone will be fighting for the third floor bedroom/studio. With windows on the east and west sides, there is ample natural light for painting or crafting. This property also boasts the cutest barn, chicken house and potting shed in Bucks County! And a real root cellar! The barn saw a restoration some years ago by local purist/perfectionist Jim Clarkson and was decorated by local artist Gregory Silk. The barn has a stall area, midsection has new white oak floor and is used as a party space. There is room for 2 cars and an additional carport for tractors. Upstairs has 2 large hay lofts and a fabulous workshop. The barn has recently been equipped with a new electrical panel and LED light strips galore. A perfectly sized fenced garden with twelve raised garden boxes is planted and awaiting the summer harvest. A local permaculturist has done a detailed plan of the property for living a self sufficient lifestyle which will be provided to the new owner. This property has had horses, goats, sheep and chickens over the years and is appropriate for all. Some of the woods were recently cleared to provide shaded pasture to your animals. The front of the house was just repointed with new flashing installed. The gravel driveway has a roundabout with ample parking. The grounds are relatively low maintenance as much of it is natural groundcover and berms. Recent landscaping includes mowable swales, natural grasses and a rebuilt original stone retaining wall.. Every season has magnificent color changes with bulbs and perennials popping up everywhere! This property was planted with purpose! Sit at the counter in the kitchen and watch the birds at the feeders, the deer come through with their fawns and an occasional fox run by. It’s a nature lover’s paradise! Showings begin Sunday June 6 and open house 12-3
