Property Description
Seldom, these days, do we find a fine old Bucks County stone farmhouse with all its original features remaining unspoiled on nearly 22 acres of stunning countryside. Braeburn Farm, built in 1780 and owned by the same family since 1953, is all this and more. This enticing property not only provides priceless serenity, but offers many opportunities to pursue various agricultural interests while generating projected rental income anywhere between $2,200-$3,000 per month. 3 separate residences are included: a 2 bedroom, 1 bath apartment in the bank barn and a separate 1 bedroom 1 bath cottage-style home. This picturesque, rolling property is located walking distance from one of Bucks County's historic covered bridges, at the end of a long driveway winding between a beautiful mix of fertile fields, lush meadows, woodlands, and panoramic views of sunrises and sunsets over the rural, scenic countryside. The land slopes gently upwards from Cabin Run Creek to a treeline, where sweeping views host the perfect place for your dream home, which could incorporate the farmhouse. The main house is 2,430 sq.ft, just awaiting loving restoration. Purists will savor the slate roof, random width wood plank floors, deep window sills, transoms above and threshold stones below the doors with paneled scuncheons, built-ins throughout, exposed beams and beaded wall boards, two walk-in fireplaces with smoking doors, one with a cast iron stove. A main staircase and a set of kite winder stairs provide access to the 2nd floor bedrooms with private baths. A sunroom leads out to a flagstone patio, which wraps around the home and is complemented by periodic stone walls and terraces. A whole house generator powers the home during outages. The large bank barn could house your livestock. A portion of the upper loft has an apartment which looks out onto pastoral scenery. The apartment has its own utilities and shares a septic with the cottage. Use one of the additional residences as a caretaker's or guest house. This impressive property is adaptable to a great many uses and poses endless possibilities for equestrian pursuits, organic farming, a gentleman's farm, or country retreat. The land is mostly open, but has some woodland, and abounds with abundant wildlife for the nature enthusiast - an ideal setting for those inspired by beauty and ambiance. Located just west of the Delaware River and quaint river villages, this is as convenient as country living gets. Drivable to NY and Philly
