The circa 1850 residence sets on a delightful near acre parcel with stacked stone gardens, vibrant perennials and intimate spots for entertaining or simple solitude. The main house boasts a brick exterior and covered porch. Gleaming wide plank pine floors with exposed nail heads accent main living space and three comfortable bedrooms on the upper level. Kitchen, dining and living areas are nicely outfitted with stainless appliances, raised panel cabinetry and beadboard wainscoting. Flagstone walkways meander to a terrific multi-purpose outbuilding with front and rear garage bays, studio/guest suite with loft, bedroom and full bath, and a charming covered side porch with pergola. Steps away, a sparkling inground pool is privately positioned on the scenic grounds. Serenity Gardens is an ideal weekend getaway or full-time residence in close proximity to quiet Lake Towhee and Lake Nockamixon State Park, a biking, hiking, and boating destination with nearly 5,300 unspoiled acres and a 7 mile long lake. A short and scenic drive leads to unique shopping and dining options along the Delaware River corridor
