Property Description
Searching for a home with some historic flair? Look no further! This circa 1750 stone farmhouse was once The Yardley Tavern and ferry house, a popular stop for travelers and the locals of Yardley. There’s even evidence that George Washington was a frequent visitor during the American Revolution. Historic and modern style collide once you step inside, with part of the first floor recently remodeled on the show Stone House Revival, the ideas are ready to flow. Walking in, you are welcomed into the pub room, featuring an original beehive oven, a beautiful handcrafted bar, an accent shiplap wall, a vaulted ceiling with recessed lighting, and gorgeous brick flooring. A few steps up is the Great Room featuring exposed stone and shiplap walls, a fireplace, a beamed ceiling, random width wood flooring throughout and access to a finished powder room. The original section of the home offers a new Kitchen featuring a newly repointed fireplace adding immense charm to the Kitchen and Dining area. Up the stairs to the second floor pays homage to the traditional setup of a Bucks County farmhouse, with half of the floor belonging to the Main Suite. The Main Bedroom is situated so the beautiful stone fireplace is a gorgeous design element and offers private access to a spacious Full Bath and Dressing Room. On the other side is another suite-style bedroom ready with its own Full Bath and convenient laundry area. The third level is open to your imagination, perfect to add a Study or Sitting Room across from a potential third bedroom. Outside is a smokehouse and a lovely, flat open yard ready to be transformed.
