Description

Atop the hill overlooking the bucolic Bucks County village of Carversville lies a classic Midcentury Modern home, unaltered since it was built in 1955. With four acres of woods and lawns, in two parcels, the property provides a private and quiet fulltime home or weekend getaway. The architect, a fan of Frank Lloyd Wright, built the home for himself and his wife, and the midcentury design has stood the test of time. It incorporates many of the architectural trends of its time, like its practical one-level...Atop the hill overlooking the bucolic Bucks County village of Carversville lies a classic Midcentury Modern home, unaltered since it was built in 1955. With four acres of woods and lawns, in two parcels, the property provides a private and quiet fulltime home or weekend getaway. The architect, a fan of Frank Lloyd Wright, built the home for himself and his wife, and the midcentury design has stood the test of time. It incorporates many of the architectural trends of its time, like its practical one-level living design, its A-frame roof and cathedral ceilings, its L-shaped raised fireplace, its wall of windows facing the sunny southeast, and its built-in planter, spanning the length of the living and dining areas, making the home green and bright throughout the year. The main and guest baths feature inlaid Mercer tiles depicting mythological creatures. The lengthy pantry, entered from the carport, provides plentiful storage space and a laundry sink. The guest room, presently a large library, has two doors and could easily be split into two bedrooms. The home has two dog runs, one with a dog door from the pantry, the other directly from the main bedroom. The home is 10 minutes from the vibrant towns of New Hope or Doylestown, 45 minutes from Princeton, 90 minutes from either New York tunnel, and an hour from center city Philadelphia. Under the same ownership for 52 years, the house needs renovation — and its classic design invites the fresh expression of a new owner's imagination, style, and desires. Showings begin at open house on 7/15/2023, 12pm - 3pm.
