Historically, there were estate properties defined by their grandeur & grace, with long driveways leading through expansive lawns & rooms of impressive proportions that flowed effortlessly, with wonderful attention to detail including custom woodworking & hardware & boasting all the accoutrements that made for ease of living. They are rare now, but this gracious home is an example of the best. Lovingly built with an artistic eye & a reverence for classic design elements, this breathtaking home takes its character from traditional estate homes that have been added on to as time had demanded. Tucked away on over 13 acres, the property overlooks the Saucon Valley Country Club. One's entrance is along a curved drive, past a stone spring house & pond, leading to the classic colonial of stone & wood? reminiscent of entry to an English Manor home or to a traditional Bucks County gentleman's estate. Inside, these charms are compounded, as each turn reveals delightful architectural details. Fine materials & craftsmanship bespeak quality without compromise, while every element in design & execution is characterized by an understated elegance only to be expected in a home of this quality. Throughout, the rooms are bathed in light through oversized windows, exterior transoms, skylights & an array of verandahs accessing the private acreage & overlooking fields & fauna. Adding to the charm are the pathways to pool, pool house & various, well-executed garden areas, inviting one to sit & enjoy the environs. Befitting the needs of today's family without sacrificing luxury, there are rooms for every need or hobby, designed for large or small family gatherings. The main house has 3 fireplaces, 4 bedrooms, a paneled den, a gourmet kitchen, a sunroom with bar, a family room & two 1st floor office suites. Set amongst a screen of mature & specimen trees, rolling lawn & long-distance vistas, outside areas for intimate or formal gatherings abound. A separate pool & pool house, with fieldstone walls flawlessly matching the main residence, are the perfect accoutrement. A large great room is anchored by a floor- to-ceiling stone fireplace & boasts an antique bar. A separate lofted area, 2 baths, bedroom, kitchen & additional garaging complete this fabulous space. For the outdoor enthusiast, the pool & hot tub are surrounded by bluestone patios & covered verandahs. This utterly romantic home effortlessly strikes a remarkable balance between spaciousness & warm intimacy.
