Property Description
Nestled in the verdant woodlands and fertile farmlands of Upper Bucks County is a classic stone farmhouse full of heart and history. Turn down the winding driveway, over the creek that babbles beneath the tall trees, pass the stone bank barn and emerge at an emerald green lawn that stretches before you, revealing an elegant home tucked into the valley. This is the perfect marriage of old and new, of rustic charm and modern convenience. This is Spondon. Named for a small village in England, this c1825 stone house has been expanded to become a spacious and inviting home. A stone patio graces the front of the house, and leads to a large dining room with deep window sills, a built in floor-to-ceiling wood hutch, and two wood-burning fireplaces. The eat-in kitchen is the heart of the home, with exposed wood beams, wood cabinets, stainless appliances, and an open-air pantry. Close by is a central foyer that opens to a grand living room, with a large fireplace flanked by benches, and built-in bookcases. Upstairs, the luxurious master suite features yet another fireplace, walk-in closet, and master bath with a Japanese-style soaking tub. A private master balcony looks out over the creek and back yard, and is the perfect place for morning coffee. Three more bedrooms complete the second floor, along with two full baths, and a finished attic room boasts a walk-in closet for extra storage. A rear patio gives way to an in-ground pool, just right for hot afternoons or warm summer evenings. The gravel driveway has two parking areas for easy access to both the grounds and the house, with room to accommodate family as well as guests. A 4-story stone bank barn once held horses on the ground level, while upper levels feature a glass wall entry and a spacious and versatile interior with offices, workrooms, a cedar closet, and multiple loft areas. For the adventurous, 88 acres of woods and fields invite exploration and discovery, with endless opportunity for hiking or recreation. Hidden away in coveted Tinicum Township, Spondon is nevertheless in easy driving distance to town centers, and just a few short minutes from scenic River Road. Classic Bucks County living at its finest, in the most enchanting of settings, Spondon is a timeless yet unique property.
