About this home
Single Family · Built 1700 · Historic
Delightful Bucks County farmhouse in the quaint Brownsburg Village enclave in Upper Makefield. This circa 1700’s farmhouse radiates charm beginning with a classic picket fence, covered front porch perfect for rocking chairs and an unbelievable, almost 2 acre yard with pool. The home boasts a lovely, circular flow on the main level and combines old world architecture with a more modern kitchen and sunroom design for present day living. Charming wood-burning fireplaces, rustic beams, antique hardwood floors and pie staircases lend to the beauty of this vintage property. The upper level highlights 3 bedrooms, a full bath with exposed stone wall and a 3rd floor attic currently utilized for storage but offers endless possibilities connecting the older and newer sections of the home. Enjoy the beauty of the landscape from the multi-tiered deck, take a dip in the in-ground pool or tend to the chickens with a convenient coup/shed. Lovingly maintained by the same owner for 48 years! Whether you are looking for a weekend retreat to escape or desire a full-time respite enjoying the water activities on the Delaware River or the historic districts with shopping and dining in New Hope, Newtown, Washington Crossing or Yardley then look no further!
