Steeped in history, this Solebury Township colonial stone home sits in the historic village of Center Bridge and is walkable to local downtowns such as Stockton, NJ across the river or New Hope and Lumberville, PA just up/down the canal towpath nearby. Built into a sloping, terraced hillside, the potential for finely planted gardens and a natural oasis await. The main level offers high ceilings for the time period, exposed beams, new oak floors in the main living room, and lots of unique built-ins and other historic details like the stained glass front door, views of the antique "wishing well" from the breakfast nook, exposed stone walls in the kitchen and upstairs, and more. The primary bedroom features the original wide plank pine floors, and the secondary bedroom lets out to the stone patio/outdoor seating area (also great for a home office). The second floor is rounded out by a large, heated sunroom full of afternoon light through both the sliding doors and skylights. The top floor bedroom overlooks the backyard and has a bonus room for additional closet storage or perhaps its own bathroom one day (the plumbing is right below). A charming get-away retreat, or move-in ready full time home located in one of the most prized school districts and townships in Bucks County, close to major roads to NYC/Northern NJ and the greater Delaware Valley area.
