About This Home

As of April 2025

Welcome to 399 E Paletown Road, a charming 1870’s farmhouse that combines rustic appeal with modern comforts. As you step across the front porch into the inviting living room, you’ll admire the stunning brick fireplace with a wood-burning stove, newer flooring, and exposed wood beams. The adjoining dining room is the perfect setting for entertaining guests or hosting holiday gatherings. To the right, a cozy den or office space provides a quiet retreat for work or study. To the left, the country kitchen boasts solid hardwood cabinets, paired with ample counter space and updated appliances that make cooking and meal prep a breeze. The large sliding door offers a view of the sprawling deck outside, allowing for an easy transition to outdoor dining surrounded by nature. A laundry closet and a half bath conveniently round out the first floor. Upstairs, you'll find four generously sized bedrooms, each offering large closets and natural light. The primary suite, with its en-suite bathroom with a tile stall shower, provides privacy and comfort. The other three bedrooms share a full hall bath, complete with a tub shower. The curved wooden staircase leads up to the unfinished attic space, offering a blank canvas for your creative vision. Step outside to the enclosed back porch, a perfect space to unwind and enjoy the outdoors year-round, whether it's sipping morning coffee or enjoying the sunset. This lush 1.6-acre private lot boasts an above-ground pool, an expansive brick patio, manicured garden beds, and so much more. The detached four-car garage barn is a standout feature, offering so much more than just a place to park your vehicles. With two levels, there's ample storage space and a workshop area for DIY projects, hobbies, or crafts. Assigned to Quakertown Community School District, the home is just minutes from shopping, restaurants, parks, Lake Nockamixon, and commuter routes. This is an opportunity you don't want to miss.
