A quaint driveway, country gate, and lush landscaping set the stage for this beautiful stone farmhouse with later additions. Once home to a Bucks County blacksmith, Griscom-Canby House c. 1790 offers the perfect blend of old and new. The first floor exudes grand Old World charm with lovely details including an extraordinary walk-in fireplace, random-width pumpkin pine flooring, open beams, built-in cabinetry, and crown molding. Upon walking through the rustic and inviting entrance, you find yourself in a lovely colonial keeping room, the perfect spot to settle in with a great book. Desire an open floor plan? Walk through the elegant dining room and you will be pleased to see the kitchen opening up to a large family room which provides the perfect setting for gatherings. The outdoor area includes a friendly porch and patio to relax and enjoy your favorite beverage, an ample backyard, and additionally, features wonderful 18th century stone blacksmith ruins. And if that wasn't enough, a recently rehabbed exquisite Amish barn offers endless possibilities for the outdoor person, hobbyist, or collector. Modern amenities include central air and gas heat. A rare opportunity to own a piece of history, this home is the quintessential bucolic Bucks County home not to be missed.
