About This Home
As of May 2014This privately situated sophisticated country home began life circa 1880 as a stone barn and was converted to a residence in 1949. Scrupulously maintained & updated through the years, Dragon Hill offers all the amenities of rural living in Bucks County. The heart of the home is the gracious living room with 10' beamed ceilings, wood-burning fireplace, & 2 sets of triple windows overlooking the picturesque property. Exposed stone walls, wood floors, & deep-silled windows remain in many of the rooms. Recently renovated, the sunny kitchen has glossy cherry cabinetry, soapstone countertops & stainless appliances. A charming studio with separate entrance is a quiet spot for artistic endeavors or for use as an au pair/guest suite. Set on 5 well protected acres of mature trees & meadowlands with beautiful inground pool, the seasons bring a profusion of flowering perennials, a showcase of colorful foliage, & blanketed snowy slopes beckoning you to mount sleds. For all occasions, Dragon Hill extends warm welcome to all who arrive here.
