Situated on 24 idyllic acres, Turtle Pond is an escape from the hectic pace of everyday life, perfect for a full time residence or as a weekend retreat. Built circa 1850, the stone home has undergone additions and renovations in the intervening years, yet still maintains the charm of a rural farmhouse. The entry vestibule with slate floor opens to random width pine floors, exposed stone walls, and log-and-mortar walls in the foyer and dining room. Nearby, the oversized kitchen and breakfast area are bright and sunny, with large windows and doors leading out to the stone patio. A cozy living room with a wood stove, along with a full bath with laundry complete this level. Upstairs, the primary bedroom has its own en suite, while two additional bedrooms share a hall bath. A library and den are on this floor as well, along with access to the unfinished third floor. The view from every window is serene, overlooking lush meadows, old-growth trees, and a large pond covering nearly an acre that is home to frogs, fish, and turtles and even includes its own island. A 2-car attached garage and separate barn with garage space offers lots of room for storage or projects. Located in the Quakertown school district, and just a short drive from shopping, dining and commuter routes, Turtle Pond is proudly offered for $659,000.
