About This Home
As of March 2023Welcome to the James Beckman Home, circa 1883...sitting proudly at 347 Maple Avenue in the Historic District of Doylestown Borough! This is one of those Maple Avenue homes that you have admired for years. You've seen it on the Doylestown Christmas Tours and Home & Garden Tours...and now it could be yours! Pride of ownership is evident...every square inch of this magnificent property! This 4,070 sq ft., 3-story Victorian offers 9 1/2 ' ceilings, 5 bedrooms, 3 full baths and 2 half baths. A stunning addition in 2006, designed by James Greenwell and built by Jarrett Vaughan Builders, added a covered wrap around porch; family room with built-ins, gas (propane) fireplace and 3 pairs of 8' french doors to the porch. The renovation also included a mud room; extended the formal dining room; and refreshed the stunning upper floor primary bedroom suite with an upper balcony, huge walk-in closet, radiant heat and custom marble bath! Wow...it is beautiful. The homeowners have maintained and enhanced upon the classic period details thru-out. You will appreciate the antique leaded glass window in the foyer, the stunning windows, moldings, wood floors and wood-burning fireplace in the formal living room. The kitchen and butler's pantry offers wood floors, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, custom island and cabinetry, refrigerator and freezer drawers and so much much. It is a delight. Upstairs, two of the bedrooms are ensuites and all bedrooms are spacious and sunny and offer adequate storage. This is a must see. Enjoy your evenings on the covered wraparound porch or the patio overlooking the koi pond and exquisitely landscaped gardens. Fenced rear yard and detached over-sized two garage. Location, Location, Location...all of this sitting pretty on a desirable Maple Avenue block with strong supporting real estate just steps from Historic Doylestown's shops, restaurants, library, theater, museums ...and award wining schools! Welcome Home!
