Property Description
Rare chance to invest in a 215-year-old historic stone farmhouse. Per the Bucks County Historical Society Front of the house built in 1780"s 3 years before the revolution ended, Kitchen area 1830"s and Summer Kitchen 1850"s somewhere on the doors are ages. Current owner had a dream, a plan and accomplished a lot of the exterior restoration. Then his personal circumstances changed. You now have the opportunity to turn it into your dream home. Owner"s plans are still available as are many historic photographs, etc. Several of the attributes include 18-24 inch thick stone walls and main floor laundry and mud room. Pumpkin pine floors in current kitchen and other rooms, others not yet discovered. Exposed beams and stone walls accentuate America"s past. Summer kitchen with walk in fireplace would make a great family room or den. Walk up attics for storage or additional living space. Out buildings add to the look of the property and bucolic setting out back. The feeling of the home and views will transform you to a much earlier time. In turn making hard to believe you can be in downtown Quakertown in 11 minutes or less for most of your shopping and entertainment needs. At this low price there are some negatives. The home is not currently habitable due to the baths and stage of restoration. The home is being sold absolutely in "as is" condition but inspections are welcomed.
