Welcome to Stone Barn, a classic Bucks County stone and frame bank barn built in the early 1800s. Converted to a residence around 1980, this extraordinary home is on the market for the first time in over 40 years. Expansive spaces, soaring ceilings, exquisite old beams, trusses and stone walls create stunning living spaces and offer many opportunities for a new owner to create their dream home. With four levels, the possibilities are endless. The main level features a gracious entry into the large living area with gorgeous random-width chestnut floors, a wall of windows and sliding glass doors to the terrace, and a stone chimney wall with raised hearth. Off the entry area is a tavern room, with a wet bar, which is a more intimate space with many possible uses including as an office, a library or play room. The expansive dining room can accommodate large dinner parties and has a sliding glass door to the terrace that overlooks the grounds and the stone-walled courtyard area below. The kitchen, breakfast area, a mudroom with stone floor and a powder room complete the main level. Up a flight of stairs the U-shaped second level has a cozy loft with stone walls, the main bedroom suite with a large full bath, a walk-in closet and more of the beautiful old architectural details. There are two additional bedrooms and a full bath on this floor. Up another flight, the finished third floor has three bedrooms, a full bath and generous storage spaces. The lower level, reached through a door off the entry area, is finished, with four rooms, including one with a brick fireplace, as well as a workroom, a utility room and a room that is rough plumbed for a bath. There are two doors to the courtyard, one opening on to a covered porch. The lower level offers nearly unlimited possibilities for a new owner! Located just north of vibrant New Hope, Stone Barn has easy access to commuter routes, shopping, recreation activities including walking, hiking, kayaking, and boating, as well as dining and cultural venues . It is 3.5 miles to the center of New Hope; 66 miles to the Holland Tunnel; and 42 miles to Center City, Philadelphia. |
