About This Home

As of December 2016

Located in Tinicum Township, arguably the most bucolic in Bucks County, this beautiful Colonial style home features simplicity of design, an absence of synthetic clutter and a distinctly natural appeal. Entering the front door, through glass French doors, the long living room features the beautiful site finished 6" red oak flooring found throughout the first floor. Cool and smooth, the ash stain is striking. The kitchen and breakfast room were beautifully remodeled in 2014 and are open to the family room. Elegant cove ceiling lighting gives a soft glow, while Carerra marble counter tops over extensive cabinetry, a farmhouse sink, subway tile backsplash and center prep island create a wonderful space for cooking. The breakfast room has sideboard and display cabinetry. The family room features a stone fireplace with woodstove insert and sliders out to the 15x40' wood deck. A formal dining room features a graceful 5 arm chandelier and chair rail molding. A spacious laundry with 16" ceramic tile flooring and powder room complete the main floor. Upstairs, 6" natural red oak is the flooring throughout. The master suite, features the luxurious master bath remodeled in 2015. Three sunny spacious bedrooms share the hallway bath, remodeled in 2008. The full basement has an exercise room with mirror wall ? great for workout equipment, yoga or dance. Situated in a cul de sac of homes all set back from the road, and off of the famous Tinicum winding country lanes, this 2.89 acre property is lovely and so serene. No pesticides have been used in the landscaping or the sweet kitchen garden by the 11x22 garden shed and 8x8 chicken coop. A matching 20x16 Barn is nestled amongst the shade trees. Split rail fencing and additional interior fence is wonderful for dog lovers. Just open the back door and out they go! 30 minutes each way to Doylestown and the Lehigh Valley ? equidistant to NYC and Philadelphia.
