Property Description
A picturesque spring fed pond, pool, rolling lawns, 25 Acres and surrounding fields and forest set the stage for a country life, uncluttered by the outside world. At once both a stately gentleman's farm and relaxed Bucks County Stone Colonial, the Hessian House does double duty for those dreaming of a place to make fond family memories, where idyllic gatherings take place all year long. Gardens and rock walls are an inviting entry, drawing visitors to remember the old world sensibilities of yesterday. At first glance, the Hessian House presents an inimitable richness and authenticity that stands today as a tribute to the skilled artisans of the early 1800's, balancing scale with refined and rich materials. Hand-hewn beamed ceilings, 4 richly paneled fireplaces, wide board floors, deep set mullioned windows and antique cupboards have been lovingly restored. A fully renovated kitchen, a dramatic master suite with fireplace and luscious bath, a cathedral-ceiling family room, adjacent keeping room and an 1800's living/dining room with walk in fireplace are just a few of the other amenities. The quintessential stone bank barn houses a large and beautifully appointed studio with full bath - perfect for the weekend guest. Nearby, nestled amidst flowering gardens, is a heated pool with privileged vistas of the 25 country acres. On the hillside, beyond the barn, sits a 2 bedroom caretaker's home. Minutes from the Lehigh Valley, under 60 minutes from Philadelphia and 90 minutes from NYC.
