Property Description
Refined, relaxed and an incredibly rare find. For nearly 200 years, this property has been called "Harmony Farm" and upon visiting, you'll know why. Special in every way, this historical and handsome estate property is hidden on 5.29 acres on the border of Buckingham and Solebury townships. Its prime location affords privacy and access to area amenities. The estate includes a manor house, carriage house and enormous barn. The stone manor house is quintessential Bucks County: random-width floors throughout (restored in 2017), hand-milled woodwork and cabinetry, custom-cut stonework, unusually high ceilings and exceptional light and volume, offering an easy flow for elegant yet comfortable living. The main floor features formal living and dining areas, a spacious kitchen and a c. 1935 addition with 14' ceilings, stone fireplace and antique "bottle-bottom-glass" windows. With beautiful views from every one of its 40 windows, the 3-story, 6-bedroom, 3.1-bath home is beautifully finished with upgraded appliances, fixtures and amenities. Perhaps the most spectacular aspect of Harmony Farm is its grounds, delightful in every season. Perfect for those seeking privacy and for those who love to entertain, its lawns, pool, spa and patio area look like a luxury resort, especially when lit at night. Beyond the perennial beds and courtyard gardens, you'll enjoy hundreds of flowering bushes (peonies, lilacs, hydrangea) and bulbs (lilies, iris, tulips, daffodils), canopies of wisteria and specimen trees. An enclosed courtyard garden protects lavender, forsythia, specimen lilacs and hydrangea, and 4 symmetrical spaces around the cast iron fountain produce a bounty of cutting flowers, herbs and produce. The carriage house and barn, both of which were converted to 1-bedroom guest and rental units in the 1940s, have been lovingly and beautifully restored by the current owners. Today, these legal rental units can generate more than $120,000 in annual income. The enormous barn encompasses 4 apartments, along with 2 horse stalls, a garage and storage space. The carriage house contains 3 apartments, one of which is used as office space by the current owners. Reached by a separate drive and secluded, these rentals do not compromise the privacy, beauty and integrity of the main house and its outdoor living spaces. Whether used as a private retreat, family estate or an investment property, Harmony Farm is one of the most exceptional properties now available in Bucks Count
