About This Home

Welcome to Firefly Pines - Sophisticated country living. The existing 3,777 SF mid-century modern home, built in 1967 on 19+ acres of land that is not currently deed restricted offers a unique opportunity for expansion or complete reinvention. Whether you choose to build upon the current footprint or create a design/build that reflects your personal vision, the possibilities are endless. The home currently has a rare pending permit for a gravity-fed 5 bedroom septic system which adds exceptional value for future development. Enrolled in Act 319 (clean & green) for significant ongoing tax savings while not under conservation easement. This extraordinary property offers a combination of privacy, flexibility, and strategic value. Perched at a desirable elevation with gently rolling topography, a natural freshwater spring and expansive seasonal views. This is more than land - it's a remarkable legacy asset. With no current deed restrictions, the future owner maintains full control of land use. For those with an estate planning lens, this property presents a unique potential opportunity to unlock substantial federal and state tax deductions, and estate tax exclusions through future land preservation - a powerful vehicle for both wealth preservation and environmental stewardship. In a township where most of the larger parcels are already preserved, this property is atypical with a remarkable long-term upside. Sold as is. Located in the award-winning New Hope- Solebury School District, minutes from downtown New Hope and the Route 202 commuter corridor; 69 miles miles from the Holland & Lincoln tunnels; 67 miles to Verrazzano Bridge; 21 minutes to Princeton & 45 minutes to Philadelphia. Centrally located to rails & airports.
