About This Home

As of September 2023

Located on one of Solebury Township's most desirable roads, this ranch-style residence has been renovated and updated with sophisticated designer finishes throughout, making it truly move-in-ready. This classic fieldstone and stucco home features a new covered front porch with standing-seam metal roof and bluestone floor, the perfect place for relaxing and overlooking the mature shade trees and rolling lawn. Enjoy exceptional, open, light-filled interiors and the convenience of single-floor living with a floor plan that is flexible for daily living and entertaining. Hickory hardwood floors run throughout the main floor, and the sitting room features a hand-painted scenic mural and trompe l'oeil-painted window treatments by one of America's leading muralists. The recently designed open kitchen features custom white cabinetry, Caesar Stone countertops, Italian tile backsplash, custom lighting and all new stainless-steel appliances. The main suite bedroom includes a newly renovated en suite bath; there are two additional bedrooms and a second updated bath. As a bonus, stairs off the kitchen lead to a walkout finished family room with floor-to-ceiling windows and new sliders opening to a secluded patio and fully fenced rear yard. The lower level includes a workshop/mud room, half bath and attached two-car garage. Those who would like more living space will find a secret door to a staircase leading to a huge dormered space that would almost double the square footage of the house. Enjoy peace of mind with an upgraded electrical system throughout, a new HVAC system, new hot water heater and new oil tank. The .60-acre lot is landscaped with a towering arborvitae hedge for privacy, and a custom-built shed provides added storage. Ready to enjoy as a full-time or weekend residence, this turnkey Bucks County home is well located just minutes from all New Hope offers as well as Princeton and other points in NJ.
