Description

Tucked away at the end of a long, tree-lined drive, this circa-1800 stone colonial masterfully unites timeless historic charm with the sophistication of a thoughtfully designed modern addition. Set on more than three acres of rolling lawn and mature landscaping, the property is framed by stately trees, fieldstone walls, and pastoral views of neighboring farmland—one of Buckingham’s most picturesque settings. The original residence showcases timeless details: exposed beams, deep windowsills, wide-plank pine floors, and handcrafted millwork that speaks to its 19th-century roots. Complementing these authentic touches, a thoughtfully designed two-story addition enhances the home with lofty ceilings, expansive windows, and an elegant flow between rooms. The entry hall, in the newer wing of the home, features an elegant staircase and plenty of natural light which strikes the perfect balance of understated sophistication and antique charm. From here, the generous sized great room impresses with a soaring vaulted ceiling, stone fireplace, custom built-ins, and a wall of stonework—is an inviting space for family gatherings. Just beyond, the first-floor primary suite offers a private retreat with a sitting area, walk-in closet, and spa-inspired bath featuring a jetted tub, oversized shower, and custom cabinetry. French doors open to a flagstone terrace that invites seamless indoor-outdoor living. At the heart of the home, the chef’s kitchen is a showpiece with custom cherry cabinetry, granite countertops and a massive center island for casual dining. Culinary endeavors are elevated in this gourmet kitchen, appointed with Viking appliances, which includes a gas stove and grill, convection oven, bread warmer, an expansive refrigerator/freezer, and the added convenience of dual dishwashers. Directly off of the well-appointed kitchen is a wet/coffee bar which provides additional counter and storage space when hosting. A coffered ceiling with recessed lighting adds distinction, while French doors lead to a covered porch, perfect for outdoor entertaining. An adjacent sunroom with exposed stone walls and plenty of windows creates an additional gathering or dining area. Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms enjoy tall ceilings and arched windows, one with access to a balcony overlooking the property's bucolic grounds. A versatile bonus room and sun-filled full bath complete this level. An adjoining period bedroom, accented with exposed beams and a mantled fireplace, features its own updated bath, providing a comfortable guest or secondary suite. The residence also includes a self-contained living area with its own kitchen, bedroom, bath, and additional rooms above—an ideal arrangement for multi-generational living or private guest quarters. A charming stone smokehouse, barn, and scenic grounds add to the property’s unique appeal. With updated systems, zoned heating and cooling, and an exceptional location near New Hope, Doylestown, and easy routes to New York and Philadelphia, this remarkable estate is ready to be cherished by its next owners.
