This classic beauty rests on a gentle hill opening up to a vista of unobstructed views of the Doylestown Country Club Golf Course. From the vantage point of the gorgeous flagstone patio, enjoy sunrises and meteor showers over the rolling greens, to the vibrant seasonal display of summer fireworks, autumn's vivid colors, winter sledding and spring blooms! Step inside this classic 5+ bedroom, 4.5 bath Brick Home, thoughtfully designed in 1920 by renowned architect Luther Nash, and let the home's rich history unfold. The grand foyer, framed by 9-foot ceilings and a magnificent 3-story staircase, flows into the formal Dining Room with a custom, lighted corner cabinet and scenic views-an elegant stage for holiday gatherings. Just beyond, the step-down Living Room with a cozy fireplace, book-shelves and hand-crafted Mercer Tile accents creates a spot for quiet moments by the fire. The nearby Family Room, with a vaulted, wood-beamed ceiling, massive stone fireplace and wet bar, beckons to be used for family holidays, entertaining or casual relaxation. The gourmet Kitchen, outfitted with leathered black granite countertops, a double stainless sink, and premium appliances overlooks the lush backyard. The Kitchen combines classic elegance and functionality. Nearby, the home now includes a First Floor Bonus Suite with a private entrance and a VIEW! The Suite offers privacy and convenience, with a full handicap-accessible bath. A secret back stairway leads from the Bonus Suite to the upstairs. A charming powder room and laundry room complete the first floor. On the second floor, the light-filled Primary Suite provides an electric fireplace, a beautifully appointed separate dressing area with a marble sink, a walk-in closet, and a full bath with captivating golf course views. Three additional spacious bedrooms with dormer windows and custom built-ins complete this level, along with a cedar closet and hall bath. The third floor features a fifth bedroom, a full bath with a claw-foot tub, and extra storage. Set on one of the largest lots in the Borough, the property's mature trees, lush perennial gardens and stone walls offer privacy and beauty year-round. The fenced backyard, complete with a brick patio, is perfect for entertaining, while additional grounds behind the fence provide ample space for outdoor activities or even a pool! A Generac generator provides peace of mind. This extraordinary Doylestown Borough home presents a rare opportunity to own a residence in one of the Borough's most exclusive, tranquil settings. This premiere location invites you to walk to all that Doylestown Borough has to offer...the museums, the shops, the restaurants, the library, the train! This is THAT home on that street you have been waiting for.
