    What's special

    Remarkably private park-like settingAndersen windows and doorsGently rolling lawnsGenerously proportioned roomsUpdated kitchen and baths
    Once home to a locally renowned winery, this extraordinary 12+ acre property occupies a peaceful corner of Salford Township, an area of rolling countryside, farms and vineyards near the East Branch of the Perkiomen Creek. Gently rolling lawns, mature woods and towering evergreens create a remarkably private, park-like setting, with long views across the countryside to neighboring farmland and a distant silo. The acreage is not currently preserved or conserved, offering potential for future subdivision subject to municipal approvals. At the heart of the property is a beautifully updated 4,582 SF residence designed for gracious everyday living and effortless entertaining. Generously proportioned rooms, 9-foot ceilings and an abundance of oversized windows fill the interiors with natural light while framing verdant views in nearly every direction. Significant improvements within the past decade include solid white-oak flooring throughout much of the house, Andersen windows and doors, updated kitchen and baths, and a 2017 architectural-shingle roof. The formal living room, warmed by a wood- or coal-burning fireplace insert, flows into the dining room to create an expansive entertaining space overlooking the grounds. The well-appointed kitchen features granite counters, extensive cabinetry and stainless appliances, including a six-burner Viking range with propane cooktop and oven, Viking refrigerator, additional wall oven and microwave. An adjoining breakfast area and built-in desk lead naturally to the vaulted family room, where a dramatic stone propane fireplace anchors a relaxed gathering space with direct access outdoors. And outdoors is where this property becomes something truly special. Approximately 4,700 SF of patios surround the heated pool and create a private resort-like environment for entertaining on any scale. Added in 2023, the substantial covered pavilion incorporates an outdoor kitchen with granite counters, cocktail bar and propane fireplace. The pool, originally installed in 2008, received new tile and coping in 2025. A first-floor guest wing offers two bedrooms and a double-vanity hall bath, providing welcome flexibility for extended stays, multiple home office arrangements or multigenerational living. Upstairs are three additional bedrooms, including an impressive primary suite overlooking the countryside. A propane fireplace, dry bar and beautifully appointed en suite with jetted soaking tub, double granite vanities, walk-in closet with organization system, and separate shower and water closet create a private retreat. Two additional bedrooms share a spacious double-vanity hall bath. The large, heated basement offers excellent potential for additional finished space and even includes a pet-washing station. Multiple heating and cooling zones provide individualized comfort throughout the home. Then there is the barn. Built in 2000, this handsome outbuilding is far more than expected: an oversized three-bay garage occupies the ground level, while approximately 1,500 SF of insulated, heated and cooled finished space above showcases soaring timber framing and rustic wood floors. A large kitchen, bedroom, full bath and dramatic open great room create exceptional space for guests, recreation, studio or business use. French doors open to a generous deck overlooking the acreage—a spectacular vantage point from which to appreciate just how special this setting is. Despite its distinctly rural character, the property remains remarkably connected: approximately 35 miles from Center City Philadelphia, 20 miles from Doylestown and 25 miles from Allentown. A country retreat, an entertainer's haven, and a property with room to evolve—all within one exceptionally beautiful Salford Township setting.
