About This Home

As of July 2015

Enter this piece of Bucks County history through its stately gothic door and you'll find that this 1790 fieldstone and stucco home has been expanded over the years to become an entertainer's dream. Rumored to have originally been a tollhouse, the home features exposed fieldstone walls, stone fireplaces and wide-plank floors. The kitchen features gothic detailing, a center island and breakfast peninsula, two sinks, two dishwashers, double oven, a full walk-in pantry with a fully functional dumbwaiter serving the 2nd floor master suite. Just off this dream kitchen is a magnificent octagonal, paned-glass conservatory with French doors that lead to a bluestone patio for outdoor lounging and entertaining. Upstairs, each of the four bedrooms offers a different experience in this lovely home: fieldstone walls, a working fireplace, deep windowsills and built-in bookshelves. The master bedroom suite -- with its vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, Juliet Terrace and its own staircase to the first floor -- has two dressing areas, a make-up room and a master bath featuring two sinks, glass stall shower, soaking tub and WC with commode and bidet. Then, it's up the pie steps to the sitting room of the third-floor garret, where you'll enter the 4th bedroom through glass-paned French doors. With dormer windows and en suite powder room, it's a perfect hideaway. A short stroll across the 1.25 acre property is the "studio." A separate, fully heated and air conditioned 1,500 sq. ft. building with 5 rooms on two-stories. It is a perfect home office, playhouse, and overflow guesthouse. And just beyond are storage and potting sheds.
