About This Home

As of June 2024

A home that has graciously served more than a few generations is ready for the next. Since the early 1900's this farm house & bank barn on 9.46 acres has provided warmth and hospitality to its appreciative owners. The current owners have resided and improved the residence during their 50 years by adding incredible gardens growing flowers, fruit and vegetables providing for a pioneer's winter feast. Perched atop a high vista, views to the east and north are over preserved hillsides that seemingly go on forever. Two wood burning fireplaces provide warmth in the winter. New Anderson windows throughout keep the heat in and provide unobstructed views in every direction. Random width pine floors are revealed under the current wall to wall carpeting. A well maintained heated swimming pool and beautiful bank "party" barn is the ideal place to host family get-togethers. Additional rooms for office, crafts etc. This is an Upper Bucks County gem that can't be replicated at this price. Come visit today-stay a lifetime.
