Property Description
Own a piece of Bucks County History. First time on the market since the original stone house was built in the mid 1700's. In that by-gone era, when Old Easton Road was the main thoroughfare from Doylestown to Easton, the original stone house was reported to be the first general store and way station in the village. With later additions and enhancements the Belle of Pipersville stands as the gracious home it is today. Mercer tiles were delivered by Trolley in 1915 when the incredible living room fireplace was installed at a cost of $68. The current owner's grandmother had the front music room added with a round extension for the grand piano and a handsome library/family room which runs length of the house. Formal and casual areas flow seamlessly into one another with doors leading out to stone patios and covered porches. A wonderful, spacious three season room with stone floor and beaded board ceiling invites you to spend most of those warm summer days dining or relaxing. A Dutch door leads into the kitchen where you'll find a fabulous mercer tile floor and stainless steel counter tops and back splash. There are many examples of hand wrought iron work throughout the house from the Maple Leaf knocker and strap hinges on the front door to the vintage door handles and locks on all the interior doors. On the second floor are three generous sized bedrooms with walls of windows and two baths, one with subway tiles and vintage pedestal sink. The master bedroom suite consists of a parlor, office and private bath as well as a generous bedroom with windows on three sides. The third floor boasts two additional bedrooms with built-in cabinetry and a hobby/play room. You'll find a large stone fireplace in the basement which was the original kitchen in the 1700's. The home is built of fieldstone and Pipersville brick which was made just down the road. In back is a separate 5 car garage and a large bank barn awaiting your imagination. Acres of fields at the rear of the property offer the opportunity for gardening or grazing animals. A cement pond sits in the side yard behind the stately Magnolias. Be part of village life where the original Piper Tavern still operates and the Library invites browsing. This home is an antique gem that has been looked after and loved for five generations of the same family. Come and explore one of Bucks County's oldest, and most unique properties.
