Property Description
Are you a lover of historic stone farmhouses? Imagine being the original homeowners of this charming home while watching the Liberty Bell on its way to Bethlehem to be protected from the British. Nestled in the Pennridge School District, this Bucks County Farmhouses tax records date back to 1771 making this residence at least 248 years old! It is priced to sell! Imagine the history that took place between these walls! Set on a 2 1/2 acre lot in East Rockhill Township, this property is ready for its new owners to call it home. Enter into an expansive foyer which divides the formal living area and family room. Natural light shines through newer large windows illuminating an original stonewall and magnificent exposed wood ceiling beams in both living and family rooms. The dining room houses a unique Franklin Stove with blue soapstone inserts that can be interchanged with the black cast iron relief panels with historic figures. The living room includes a gas burning fireplace set in stone. Deep window sills give that extra splash of added charm. Passing through to the kitchen be amazed at the ample amount of cherry cabinetry and plenty of counter space. Updated stainless steel appliances and an extra stove top make this area fit for a culinary chef. A bonus room off of the kitchen, with a fantastic window seat, has been used over the years as a dining room, craft room or office. The current owner made his mark by adding custom bookshelves and closets. Navigating to the upper level you will find 4 sizeable bedrooms, 2 of which have exposed wood beams, lots of shelving, and closet space for all of your belongings. A large bathroom with standing shower and Japanese whirlpool/soaking tub had been updated to include a laundry area for the ease and convenience of its owners. A part of the current owners landscaping features old stone ruins of the original barn. This added piece of history is a reminder of what was once a working farm. Other added features to this property include a detached two car garage which can double as a workshop to tinker in or to be used as was intended.
