Property Description
1833 Brooke Drive is pure privacy in Bucks County just minutes from Peddler's Village, New Hope and Doylestown. This beautiful home in Buckingham Township is accessed via a long drive shouldered with rhododendron and rugged rock outcroppings. Once the curve in the driveway is rounded, the rest of the world is left behind.
The stone, stucco and frame home sits on 5+ acres with commanding views in every direction. A brick walkway leads to the covered porch with a bluestone floor and vibrant red entrance door. One enters a spacious foyer with the bright and comfortable living room with a wood burning fireplace on one side and the main floor office, complete with walls of built-ins, on the other. Down the hall is the formal dining room with a table set for 8 ( and room for more). To the left is a large open kitchen with beautiful blonde wood cabinetry, stone countertops, and stainless steel appliances including double wall ovens. The sink is positioned under a window looking over the ravine for a pleasant view when cleaning up. Just off the kitchen is an outdoor dining porch. A breakfast nook overlooks the family room and offers ample storage and provides access to main floor laundry facilities. The family room is anchored by a "walk in" size brick fireplace and boasts beamed ceilings and large windows to capture the views. A powder room completes the main floor.
The second floor includes a large principal suite that provides a respite from the world. The large bedroom includes a seating area around a gas fireplace, a walk-in closet and access to a spa-like bath with dual vanities, a soaking tub and glass shower. At the opposite end of the second floor is a guest suite (the former master bedroom) with a spacious bedroom, a fireplace and a marble bath. There are two more guest rooms on the 2nd floor that share a bath.
Throughout the house, are beautiful built-ins, large closets and walls big enough to display an eclectic collection of contemporary art. This is a home built for entertaining and gathering friends and family to your Bucks County retreat. The basement is unfinished with enough headroom for a gym, ample storage for your wine collection and space to create the perfect combination of rooms for your needs. The current owners installed a new synthetic slate roof, new bathrooms, upgraded electrical and mechanicals when they purchased the home. In 2020 the windows on the main floor and upper level were replaced with Pella Architectural Series. In 2021, a whole-house Generac generator was installed--a must in Bucks County. The home is move-in ready and waiting for you.
