Property Description
Welcome! Set back and tucked away, this stunning Bucks County Manor estate is Doylestown's best kept secret!

All within minutes from Doylestown Boro, restaurants, museums, parks, theatre, shopping, major transportation and train! From the moment you enter the main house, you will be amazed by the exquisite detail, and thoughtful touches throughout. The original portion of the home dates back to the early 1700's and the essence of this time period peaks through the more modern updates. Deep window sills, wide plank hardwood floors, intricate woodworking, and stone exterior are just some of the character to enjoy as you walk through this grand home. The expansive living room is highlighted with two chandeliers, crown moldings, and two fireplaces. Entertain, host dinner parties or just enjoy the features of the dining room, living room and library, each with their own design elements that set them apart. The kitchen was an expansion to the home in the 1900's and is gracious in size. A full bathroom and laundry room complete this level. The gleaming hardwood floors continue up to the second level where you will find four bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The third floor is great for an au paire suite, work from home space, in law suite, hang out space or just a great spot to entertain. Full bedroom, kitchenette, full bathroom and spacious living area continues to amaze with detail! The sunroom and in ground pool are part of the extended living of this home and invites you to relax and enjoy the serene setting.

The possibilities are endless with the guest house! Two apartments, each with their own entrance, and kitchens, full bathrooms and hardwood floors.
