Description

Own a piece of history in Upper Makefield township. This home, known as the Stacy Brown residence was constructed in the early 1800s, originally used as a post office and general store. The current owner has been lovingly caring for and updating the property for the past 45+years. The charm & character has not been lost with the updates. In fact, the original wide width pumpkin pine floors and deep window sills can be found throughout the home. Floor to ceiling built-ins flank the Mercer tile fireplace with wood stove insert in the cozy family room. A walk-in fireplace (not functional/chimney capped) is still the focal point in the adjacent living room. Two corner cabinets offer storage and character to the spacious dining room, where a serving window into the updated kitchen helps when entertaining guests. The light-filled kitchen boasts newer cabinetry, granite counters and stainless steel appliances. A powder room has been perfectly tucked under the stairs to service the main floor. Upstairs, discover the main bedroom with warming fireplace (not functional) and two closets. A second bedroom with attached sitting room lends itself to many possibilities. A full bath completes the second level. The third floor has been finished into yet another bedroom. What was once the back porch has since been converted to the sunroom, which leads to the outside entertaining areas...enjoy your morning or afternoon beverage of choice on the covered porch that adjoins the sunroom and kitchen. Step down to the brick patio for dining al fresco. The garden terrace tucked behind the barn is a perfect spot for meditation and relaxation. The red barn lends character and charm to the backyard, yet provides two car parking and storage. This beautiful property offers the best of both worlds.. own a piece of Bucks County charm while enjoying modern amenities. Such a convenient location...offering great access to major commuting routes, close proximity to downtown New Hope, historic parks and award winning golf courses! 2022-11-02
