Description
One of the classic properties in Doylestown Borough. The 'John Barclay' house is 202 years old this year. It was built in 1814 as the home of John Barclay, an attorney and later a judge for Bucks County and is listed on the historic registry. When the county seat was moved from Newtown to Doylestown, but before the courthouse was completed, cases were heard in John Barclay's home. The original three story stone portion has remained remarkably the same. There are two frame additions to the back. It oozes charm and ambiance with built-in bookcases and original wood floors. It could easily become a single family residence again with the addition of a new kitchen and bath conversions. It would be a spectacular home within walking distance of everything in the center of town. There could be 5 fireplaces including one walk in fireplace. In the rear of the property is a separate carriage house which is included in the sale. It is presently rented for $950 a month. The carriage house consists of Living/Dining Room, Kitchen, Bedroom and Bath. Located across the street from the Bucks County Bar Association, two blocks from the courthouse, the new justice center and Main Street everything is within walking distance including great shopping, dining and public transportation. This is, also, a very desirable location for many types of businesses. With off street parking in the rear for 11 cars the Barclay house has been operated as a law firm for the past 17 years and an architect's office prior to that. It offers three floors of office space plus two additional offices in the basement for a total of 3,548 SF. Current zoning is CR. Please see the Commercial listing both for sale and for rent.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI’m writing this as someone who once had a lot of faith in this school. Before COVID, it truly felt like a safe and supportive environment—my three children all attended, and we had positive experiences for years. Sadly, that changed drastically in recent times.My daughter was the target of ongoing bullying, and when we reached out for help, we were met with silence and inaction. The situation was especially troubling because the student involved had a personal connection to the principal, and it felt like the school prioritized protecting its image and relationships over the well-being of the students.We ultimately had no choice but to transfer our daughter to another high school, where she could finally begin to heal. But the emotional toll of what she went through will stay with her—and us—for a long time. She wasn’t the only victim either. That same student was suspended just six weeks before graduation for bullying another girl, proving this behavior was part of a larger, ongoing issue.I share our story not to cause division, but to raise awareness. I know we’re not alone—there are likely many other families who’ve gone through something similar and felt unheard. Even driving past the school now brings back painful memories of the nights our daughter cried herself to sleep.If you’re a parent with a child in this school, I urge you to stay informed, stay involved, and don’t be afraid to speak up. Every child deserves to feel safe, supported, and protected at school.Parent Review10mo ago - Linden El School
