Property Description

A Newtown Boro three story charmer that is a short walk to the shops and restaurants of this historic Bucks County town. Although built in 1860, this house has none of the old house woes. Rebuilt in 1978 from the original foundation up, the then-owners, two graphic artists, supervised the design of the house to employ materials from the original. The property consists of a cedar-stained main house and a carriage house both with cedar shingle roofs. Inside the main residence, authenticity combines with modernity. The living room sports random width pumpkin pine floors, post and beam trim, a brick pad with a wood stove and a built-in bookcase. There is a small half bath. The kitchen has a Mexican tile floor, ceiling beams, butcher block counters and top of the line appliances - Miele dishwasher, Viking range, Wolf cooktop and Sub-Zero refrigerator. One wall of the kitchen is glass with a slider that leads out to the bluestone patio and a beautiful courtyard garden which is enclosed by a brick wall and fence. Up a winding staircase, the second story has 2 bedrooms and 2 baths. From the master bedroom at the back of the house, sliding doors lead onto an ipe skywalk that provides a view of the garden below and a path to the second floor of the carriage house. The one bedroom on the third story of the main house has dark wood beams, a vaulted pine ceiling and plenty of storage. The partially finished basement has quarry tile floors throughout and a good size workroom with a large work table and lots of shelving. In the other room of the basement is storage, a large stainless-steel sink, washer and dryer. A brick driveway leads to the carriage house, an additional 864 feet of living space. With its many built-ins and desk area, the first floor is now used as an office, library and reading room. There is a half bath with a pocket door and a wood burning stove. A view of and access to the garden is through a sliding glass door. A spiral staircase goes to the second floor of the carriage house with its six large Pella casement windows, shiplap pine walls and a wooden cathedral ceiling. In one corner is a wet bar with a soap stone counter, a two-burner Kitchen Aid cook top, copper sink, under the counter Sub-Zero fridge and wine cooler. A sliding glass door leads to the ipe skywalk to the main house's master bedroom. Communication between the houses is through an intercom system which is only one of the many unique features of this residence.
