About This Home
As of May 2012This unique historic property is a beautifully restored newly staged stone barn. Its architectural detail, landscaping and stonework cannot be duplicated. Imagine dinner al fresco in a courtyard with all the privacy of a French country villa but just a short walk to the community pool, ball field, elementary school and SEPTA train. Imagine locating your home office in the separate, original Dutch Colonial Milkhouse with its distress wood floors - connected by a breezeway to the main house. Or use it as a private guest cottage for young adults now living at home. Imagine a large unfinished upstairs on a 10" concrete base where you can park your antique car collection, build the greenhouse or art studio you have dreamed of-even a tango studio like Robert Duvall's! Don't miss the opportunity to see this historic barn, with gracious one floor living, now dressed up for modern lifestyles. Seller tax abatement plan offers $10,000 credit towards property tax bill, each year for 5 years, for acceptable offer.
