Property Description
If you are searching for an authentic historic house, look no further! The style of this antique gem is a traditional Pennsylvania German Two Door bank farmhouse, identified by the two front doors, side by side in the center of the house, and four windows on the second floor. This unique style typically dates to the mid-1800s, though current tax records, not always accurate, date it to 1920. The bankhouse is Located just north of NEW HOPE, in Pt. Pleasant, which itself was one of the many early Pennsylvania German settlements that dotted the river corridor in Bucks and which is, today, a phenomenal location for all types outdoor hiking, biking, kayaking and river activities! There's even a view of the Tohickon Creek! Like the traditional banked house there are three floors, with the lowest level built partially into the bank or hillside - originally for cool-storage reasons and it's still a cool area of the house. Updated a few years ago, this three bedroom, 2 bath, house offers a great blend of antique and modern amenities. The great room, is a light-filled, open floor plan, with gorgeous floors, antique mill work and a wood-burning fireplace. Use of the space is flexible and your furniture can define it as you prefer. Galley kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite counter tops and breakfast bar maintain the sense of openness. Consistent with this Pennsylvania German style, the house has the typical corner winder stairs. The upstairs, or third level, offers two bedrooms with ceiling fans and a full bath.Lower level, or first level, offers a den with ceiling fan, bedroom, full bath and laundry. Having its own separate entrance, lends itself to an in-law suite or a guest suite for weekend visitors. Antique features abound: lots of windows, original wood floors, doors, hardware, cupboards, plaster walls, etc. Attic provides plenty of storage space, and a basement space houses all the mechanicals. Spend your summers outdoors in your in your approximately 1,000 sq. ft. very inviting entertainment area with a patio/deck and wood-burning fireplace. Or, for your 'great escape' there's a secluded back porch. You'll love it! Great first house, down-sizing house, WEEKEND house, or townhouse alternative. Exterior needs paint, and property is priced accordingly. Seller will have some painting done.
