About This Home
As of November 2019Welcome to Luna Moon, a romantic country estate nestled on 39 serene, pastoral acres in beautiful Ottsville near Lake Nockamixon. Built in 1833 with an addition in the 1960s, the farmhouse has been painstakingly restored by its current stewards and has transcended time with modern updates and rustic and provincial sophistication. Featuring sweeping vistas of the lush surrounding countryside, the home boasts wide-plank floors, large fireplaces, beamed ceilings, exposed stone walls and shiplap. The living room features random width hardwood floors, deep window sills and built-in bookshelves in the original section of the house. The heart of the home is a world-class kitchen that has seen great cooking from an array of world-renowned chefs and features professional grade BlueStar appliances, marble countertops and a brass backsplash with a rich patina. Enjoy gatherings in the generously-sized dining room that seats 16 and is graced by a fireplace and glass sliding doors that lead to the rear deck and invite the outside in. Upstairs find three cozy bedrooms and a full marble bath with a double vanity and walk-in shower. Outside, a fully-equipped outdoor kitchen with a pizza oven and a Sonos sound system are an entertainer s paradise. The grounds boast a fire pit, an in-ground saltwater swimming pool, a hot tub and an in-ground trampoline. From every vantage point, the vistas blend harmoniously with the home's farmhouse architectural design, creating a living environment that is serene. Named for the region s spectacular harvest moons, Luna Moon is a completely organic working farm and includes a greenhouse, 1,400 blueberry plants, tilled pastures and packhouse. A stone barn that has been painted by many a local artist stands on the edge of the property. Just a short drive from the art, culture and restaurants of bustling downtown Doylestown and New Hope and an hour from Philadelphia and NYC, this home is a bucolic country getaway for those looking for the respite of lush, private living.
