Property Description
The very essence of a Bucks County Gentleman's farm is evidenced at first approach, with a winding drive from a private country road. Fulfilling & surpassing all expectations, this 1800s stone colonial, on 13.6 acres, offers a unique & timeless representation of the Bucks County countryside, with vintage architectural elements throughout the stone manor house, magnificent barn and outbuildings. These qualities have made this property a rare and beautiful example of the very best. The 1860 original farmhouse has been appreciated and restored for generations, boasting vintage accoutrements and architectural details such as exposed stone walls, 5 fireplaces, butterfly staircases, random width chestnut floors, beamed ceilings, period moldings and hardware, and deep windows with old glass. Surprisingly, a recent addition offers a great room/dining room/restaurant kitchen that will take your breath away. An office, living room and guest suite with bath complete the first floor. On the second and third floors are three additional bedrooms and two baths. Multipurpose buildings are perfectly positioned amidst the rolling acreage, overlooking vistas of manicured horse pastures. The stone bank barn, breathtakingly restored, provides an amazing vaulted space for entertaining in large numbers, as well as a media loft and a studio with full bath, two kitchenettes and additional overflow guest bedrooms. Situated apart are a stone summer kitchen with 2 pizza ovens and Argentinian wood grill and a sun-filled artist's studio above the two-car garage. A swimming pool, dramatically positioned amidst long-distance vistas, offers a pool house with bar and camouflaged sound system. Accompanying these luxurious accoutrements are the fabulous landscapes, thoughtfully landscaped to provide complete privacy and accented with a bent-grass croquet court, herb, vegetable and rose gardens, and Hawthorne alee. For the horse enthusiast, the property includes riding ring, pasture & quiet country roads on which to ride & is only 5 miles from a 2,500 acre horse park. This utterly romantic farm's magic name, Windhorse Farm, derives from the Tibetan word "Lungta", meaning "Wind Horse". When you feel your "Lungta" you feel a true sense of well-being?like a horse running in the wind.
