Property Description

The sale of Willowstone Farm, built in 1793, provides a unique opportunity for the next generation of stewards to draw from the past and look to its future. Surrounded by Peace Valley Park and owned by the same family since 1928, much of the original detail and hand hewn artisanship, emblematic of a house of its age, has been retained. The lot is two acres; however, it is surrounded on three sides by Peace Valley Park itself. You have all of the benefits of the park, including views and walking trails, without any of the responsibility of maintaining it! The property consists of a stone farmhouse and a detached three car garage with a full in-law apartment on the ground level, an attached workshop and, on the second level, a two room office and full bath with heat and an air conditioning unit. The one bedroom apartment includes a full kitchen, including dishwasher and built-in microwave, a large great room with two sets of glass doors opening to the rear yard and a spacious bedroom with full bath. The main house, apartment and office utilities are separately metered. From the driveway you enter the farmhouse from the open covered porch into the glass enclosed sunporch a wonderfully cozy four season room with walls of windows and a tiled floor. The room is heated so its terrific for entertaining. The center hall, which runs the length from back to front, allows the first glimpse of the wide plank pine floors that grace most of this home. To the left of the hallway is the great room with beautiful fireplace with new woodstove insert. Several windows with wide windowsills, crown molding and built-in corner cabinets are just a few of the many original details. Across the hallway is the living room which has the first of the decorative fireplaces that can be found in several rooms in the house. Once used for wood fire, these fireplaces have not been active for many years. The living room also has a sweet half bath. The wonderful farmhouse kitchen is next! Features here include expansive cabinetry, those gorgeous wood floors, a large decorative fireplace with mantle and plenty of room for a large breakfast table. Up the stairs is a wide landing with a built in bookcase and a large closet that houses the stackable washer and dryer. There is a second full laundry in the basement handy in a house this age! Also handy is the central vac how many antique farmhouses have that? One of the many features of the second floor is the beautiful, exposed beams. The combination of the wood floors and exposed beams is so peaceful and comforting. The primary bedroom has an ensuite bath with stall shower and another decorative fireplace as well as an entrance to a connected room with closet that could make an excellent nursery or sitting room or even be pressed into service as a guest room. The second and third bedrooms, both with their own character, share a full hallway bath. Back downstairs, in the the front of the house, is the wide rocking chair front porch which is the best place for a book on a rainy day and looks out over the expansive lawn. There is also a charming springhouse and lets not forget the root cellar which could be a great wine cellar. Recent updates include: New whole house generator, many electrical updates, New propane heater and two new water heaters, one electric (for the apartment) and one propane (for the main house). The location is terrific. Of course there is the proximity to the park but the house is a ten minute drive to Doylestown Borough for shopping, dining and the Septa train. Its an hours drive to Philadelphia and about two hours to Manhattan. All of this in Central Bucks School District!
