About This Home

As of December 2018

Lush 12.4ac lot in UBE offers a private winding drive, following along beautiful Beaver Creek, that leads to the pretty hillside Colonial with it's full-length covered front porch. The setting is serene with lots of outdoor living including space for outdoor sports, creek-side reflection or frog hunting! Just down the drive is the 30x40' barn/garage that is perfect for almost anything! This spacious home has so much to offer and quality workmanship throughout. The formal living room is just off the entry foyer which offers a roomy coat closet and easy-care ceramic tile flooring that flows through to the breakfast area and kitchen. You'll love the charm of the fireside family room and beautiful views through the sliding glass doors that open to a full concrete patio and the very private rear yard. The adjoining eat in kitchen makes cooking a breeze with generous counter top workspace and cabinet storage. The dining room, just off the kitchen, is inviting and private with lovely views. Powder room and laundry complete the first floor. Upstairs, the master suite offers gorgeous tigerwood floors, a large walk in closet, private bath w large vanity, stall shower and two person jetted tub. Three additional roomy bedrooms share the hall bath. There's a full basement with tons of storage or play space along with a workshop area and bilco doors for convenient outdoor access. Two wood stoves are a big bonus for keeping things nice and toasty in the cooler months. One is a wood furnace which can be an alternate to the oil furnace for complete house heating. This property with it's unique setting offers many possibilities for the choosy buyer whether you want bucolic peacefulness or space for those hobbies in the barn/garage. An amazing setting just 80 min to NY, 20 min to Doylestown and 10 min to Lake Nockamixon. Don't miss it!
