4850 Anderson Rd

Magical, romantic, charming are aptly descriptive of this one-of-a-kind house. It features an original log cabin built in 1936, per the imposing stone chimney with date marker. Additions and renovations, exquisite landscaping, designer pond with waterfall, hot tub, paver patio, walks and walls, dry stack stone walls are some of the special touches. A detached, 2-car garage/workshop has a separate entrance to a heated and air-conditioned office with a room behind it. A large, weather-tight shed can store everything. And now the house! Fabulous Dutch door leads you into a windowed foyer and the powder room. From there step through tall natural wood doors into the great room and take it all in. Combination living room/dining room has a dramatic stone and Mercer tile fireplace with a cast iron wood burning stove. Ten foot ceiling has pegged wood beams. At the dining end of the room is a wall of windows that let in natural light and beautiful views. Spacious kitchen has its own entrance from a deck walkway on the side of the house. Remodeled w/Kraftmaid cherry cabinets. Open shelves, two banks of large windows, farm sink and eating area provide an inviting room for cooking, dining and conversation. On one side of the great room is a central foyer w/large cedar lined closet and a linen closet. A beautifully redone tiled bathroom (once a back porch) has a separate tub and large glass door enclosed shower w/pebble stone features. Two floating vanities and sinks w/storage cabinet between them, granite tops, artfully constructed windows and another cabinet by the entrance makes maximum use of the space. A couple of steps down from the foyer are two spacious bedrooms, exactly the same size, with new carpeting, double closet and beamed ceilings. A smaller bedroom/den has built-ins, two closets and another Dutch door leads to the hot tub. On the other side of the great room is a sliding door into the original kitchen. Remnants of it are there but now it is a laundry and mudroom w/cabinets. Yet another Dutch door brings you out to the patio. This outstanding home is waiting for its next owner to bring his/her own personal touches and vision to it. This is not just a house. It's a wonderful home that a lot of thought and caring has gone into. If you are passionate about nature, want a house with character inside as well as outside, this is a must see. The location is convenient. Close to the dining, shopping and cultural amenities of Doylestown and New Hope. Commuting routes are nearby to Princeton, NYC and Philadelphia. One floor living at its best plus very low taxes for more than an acre of privacy in a spectacular setting. 2020-12-15
