Property Description
A Frank Lloyd Wright inspired design, this one -of- a- kind mid-century modern contemporary ranch is one of the most unique homes in Yardley. It was featured in a 2017 issue of Philadelphia Magazine as “one of the 6 coolest homes in the Philadelphia suburbs”. It is easy to fall in love with the charm evident in every aspect of this property. Follow the long tree-lined private driveway to find the home nestled on a wooded hillside overlooking the Delaware Canal. You’ll also find the oversized detached 2-car garage, perfect for an auto enthusiast. When you open the front door, you’ll feel the authenticity of the design. You are greeted by a slate foyer, a retaining wall housing an indoor garden, and a magical great room with natural light pouring in from the large windows, sliding glass doors, and six skylights in the vaulted ceiling. This room was completely renovated and now boasts beautiful hardwood floors with in-floor lighting, gas fireplace, new light fixtures, two ceiling fans, and built-in entertainment center. All four bedrooms on this main level as well as the long hallway along the east wing of the home have undergone a complete renovation. New hardwood flooring, recessed lighting, closets, and laundry room were completed in 2022. All bedrooms overlook the woods and the Delaware Canal. There are two full bathrooms and a connected half bath on this level. Four sun tubes bring natural light into the hallway and bathrooms. The large eat-in kitchen is both stylish and functional. It provides plenty of space for food prep and cooking as well as a breakfast bar with seating for six along the curved granite peninsula. Five skylights, large sliding glass doors, and built-in cabinets and granite serving counters add to the aesthetic of the dining area. Exit the sliding doors to a screened in patio to enjoy the calming view with your morning cup of coffee. Two radiant heaters provide comfort on all but the coldest days. The rear wraparound deck is truly spectacular. Here, surrounded by mature trees and specimen plantings, you can indulge in the feelings of peace and embrace the nature that surrounds you. This is the ideal place for hosting cocktail parties or family gatherings. The lower level offers a flexible space that could be used as a second living area. Several separate entrances, a living room area with a pool table, a large bedroom now being used as an office, a kitchenette, a bathroom with a soaking tub, and a beautiful brick patio lends itself to an in-law suite, au pair suite, or guest quarters. The current owners updated the major systems in 2018. They replaced two electrical panels, installed a natural gas -powered whole house generator, installed two new chimney liners, replaced the boiler, circulator pump, and the primary copper piping for the 6-zone hydronic heating system as well as the hot water heater. We are proud to present you with this rare opportunity to own one of the most unique properties in Bucks County.
