This exceptional 7 acre property offers English perennial gardens, amazing wrap-around porch, unparalleled outdoor space including direct access to the Delaware River and Canal towpath, a magnificent 18th century barn that has been lovingly refurbished, pool, pastures, culinary gardens and Guest Cottage. Through the wrought iron gates is a romantic setting of an era past yet convenient to everything. The Manor home is stunning with fine, handcrafted details that one does not find often. The ceiling height is indicative of a prominent family having owned the home with roots back to the kin of William Penn & John Beaumont, who is credited with helping the trades and villages along the river and canal thrive in the early 1800's. Once a part of a 427 acre parcel, this hidden gem exudes beauty both inside and out. Venetian plaster walls, intricate millwork, Scalamandre linen wall coverings and gorgeous hardwood floors are exemplary of the old-world beauty one would expect in a home of this caliber. The formality of the home is offset by the modern-day amenities which include a butcher block island in the kitchen, Gathering Room with custom bar and spa-like main bath with radiant marble floors and freestanding soaking tub. This home has so much to offer and a story to tell. The next chapter is awaiting a discerning buyer looking for elegance, relaxation and classic Bucks County charm.
