Description
An exceptional opportunity to acquire a significant landholding in the heart of Bucks County. Spanning 27.33 acres in Northampton Township, this rare offering presents compelling potential for investors, builders, or discerning end users seeking to create a private estate or thoughtfully planned development. Once a distinguished thoroughbred breeding farm, the property retains elements of its storied past, including a weathered barn and remnants of original fencing that once framed open grazing pastures. Today, gently rolling, partially cleared acreage is complemented by wooded borders, offering a sense of privacy, natural beauty, and scale that is increasingly difficult to find. The setting balances pastoral tranquility with proximity to modern conveniences, creating an ideal environment for a private family compound, equestrian estate, gentleman’s farm, or a buyer-driven development vision. The property includes a ranch-style residence that was previously rented. Two engineered sketch plans and a survey, available upon request, illustrate the potential for five to six estate-sized lots. Approximately 17 usable acres are zoned R-1 with a two-acre minimum lot requirement, with floodplain considerations already accounted for in the yield. An on-site public sewer easement is in place, with public water available nearby. Recent nearby new construction sales ranging from $1.9 million to $2.1 million support both high-end residential development and luxury end-user opportunities, including the possibility for an investor to create a personal residence and selectively subdivide additional parcels. The property is currently enrolled in Act 319 Clean and Green, providing preferential tax treatment for agricultural use and reduced real estate taxes. Located within the award-winning Council Rock School District and just minutes from the historic towns of Newtown and Richboro, the location offers convenient access to shopping, dining, and everyday amenities, as well as major commuter routes including Route 232, Route 1, and I-95. Whether envisioned as a legacy estate, a private retreat, or a strategic development opportunity, 270 Rocksville Road represents a rare chance to shape something enduring in one of Pennsylvania’s most sought-after communities.
