Description
Welcome to a piece of history in the heart of idyllic Upper Bucks County. This remarkable stone bank home, built in 1734 and once known as the Sunnyside Truck Farm, was a stop along the Philadelphia & Easton trolley line, where the farm sold produce for wider distribution. Lovingly cared for and updated over these many years, the house sits proudly in the middle of a full acre of open lawn facing a light-dappled mountain. At the end of the gravel driveway is by a renovated, stone-clad summer kitchen, perfect for storage or conversion to an additional living space and a walkway to the deep covered front porch, spanning the width of the house out front. Both sides of the home are flanked by steps and stone walls leading to a large stone patio and facing the heated in-ground pool where you will enjoy relaxing and entertaining while enjoying breath-taking views of the house and the mountain beyond. Enter through the custom insulated front door into the cozy family room with stone and brick flooring, built-in shelves, Osburn wood stove, freshly updated powder room. Continue upstairs to the main floor offering a large bright living room with exposed beams, bead board moldings and stone fireplace and a sizeable dining room, with antique German wood stove for visual ambiance. The kitchen has Carrera marble counters, new s/s appliances, and a window over the Villeroy & Boch farmhouse sink. A bedroom and recently renovated full bath, including a walk-in shower with custom-tile, offer your guests full privacy. Upstairs are three more bedrooms, including the large primary bedroom with updated en-suite bathroom. Newer house systems updates include architectural shingle roof, Andersen windows on 2nd floor and lower level, s/s appliances, 3-zone propane heating system with insulated closed-circuit piping to prevent freezing, a brand-new whole house healthy air system and new custom cap on one chimney. Extensive water management system is installed across the property, both inside and outside. Located 75 minutes to NYC, 90 minutes to Philadelphia, and 20 to Doylestown or Easton.
