Step back in time without sacrificing modern comfort in this remarkable stone farmhouse, built in 1800 and set amid picturesque farmland, with beautiful pastoral views from every window. Quiet and peaceful enough for a weekend retreat yet convenient for daily commuting, the home is just five minutes from Routes 78 and 222. Rich in history, the property was part of an original William Penn deed dating to the 1700s, and its timeless character shines through original wood floors, stained-glass windows, a walk-in fireplace, exposed stone walls, and a cozy loft from the original home. Thoughtful improvements blend tradition with today's amenities, including a spacious kitchen addition with upscale appliances and plenty of room for a table or island, plus a new furnace, central air, water heater, water treatment system, gutters, downspouts, slate roof tiles, and snow guards. Flexible first-floor spaces include a charming foyer with a fireplace and stained-glass door, a spacious living room with another fireplace and double doors to the outdoors, a generous family room or formal dining room, a powder room, and a large kitchen. Double glass doors open to a newer covered deck with ample space for lounging or al fresco dining. A graceful, curved staircase leads to three well-proportioned bedrooms and a full bath upstairs. The primary bedroom opens to one of two balconies-an inviting spot to sip morning coffee while watching the birds. Brimming with history, character, and serenity, this special home offers an idyllic country setting with easy access to major highways.
