Property Description
Surrounded by protected Township and County woodlands, this custom built, field stone and cedar contemporary is beautifully set in a mature, professionally landscaped 1.8 acres with hundreds of flowering perennial shrubs. Designed for indoor/outdoor living, the home is accented by 3 outbuildings: a 3 bay carriage design garage; an in-ground pool with pool house, a studio/workshop, plus a stone-edged frog pond.
The open plan design mixes contemporary and classic features with vaulted ceilings in the entry, kitchen and great room; a double sided floor to ceiling fireplace, and french doors opening to stone patios and a newly refinished raised deck. The European oak kitchen has stainless appliances, soapstone countertops and Carerra marble subway tile backsplash. The main level also holds 2 of the 3 bedrooms plus a tile and granite full bath, each with custom millwork. The master bedroom features a separate sitting room, walk-in closet and direct access to the main bath. Flooring is oak hardwood or stone tile.
An iron and oak circular stair leads to the lower level with custom oak library -built with trees taken from the property- plus a media room with wood stove vent, an office /game room, 3rd bedroom, full marble bath, and laundry. Wall finishes are custom plaster; flooring is travertine, oak hardwood, and marble.
Originally designed to capture passive solar gain through its glass walled, sky-lighted great room, the home is energy efficient with smart thermostats, individually zoned baseboards and in floor radiant heat. The double sided fireplace, recently converted to safe and eco friendly bio ethanol, can easily be returned to either its former propane or wood burning state. Ease of maintenance is assured with the central vacuum and drip irrigation systems.
A 17’ x 33’ in-ground pool with stone waterfall is located down a winding gravel path. Surrounded by an EP Henry cobble patio, its pool house includes a kitchenette, dressing room and half bath. A 16 x 16 feet glass walled studio/work space overlooks the home and pool. Fieldstone pillar fencing and retaining walls echo the home’s fieldstone and bluestone capped foundation.
All major systems have been updated, with full warranties in place. These include, in 2022, a new central AC system; new pool liner, safety cover and pump, a new refrigerator and new wireless alarm.
The main house has Grand Manor luxury fiberglass roofing with transferable ‘lifetime’ warranty, while the 3 outbuildings are roofed with 100 year, standing seam copper. Further investment peace of mind is provided through the pre listing inspection summary, included in the documents, with all safety repairs completed.
Less than a 1 hour drive to Philadelphia and 2 hours to Manhattan, this private oasis also offers an exceptional range of recreation. An 18 hole golf course, with a private owned-public use air strip, is just a short walk away, while skiing and the County’s 3,400 acre park with boating, fishing and hiking are within a few miles. An excellent live-work-play space, this home can work wonderfully as either a primary or secondary residence, or as an investment property.
