Property Description
Truly special one of a kind home known as the “Tree House”! This home gets its name from the famous Swamp Maple, that has been monitored & admired yearly by a historical arborist, in the side yard. From the moment you drive up you will be touched by the beauty of English Gardens (once featured in the Bucks Beautiful Kitchen & Garden tour) that meander around the entire house. As you walk up to you can’t help but notice the beautiful metal gate that came to welcome you, all the way from a cemetery in England. Through the gate to the left is a lovely pond & peace garden, complete with a vine covered trellis. Take note of the lovely Black eyed Susans, lilies, hostas, Japanese Maple & so many more plantings. Get lost in the gentle trickle of water from the pond, then refocus & continue along the red tipple path to find the jaw dropping Swamp Maple, get lost again as you daydream how you might climb up the broad boughs to get a birds eye view. In the background, you hear soothing water falling, you turn to your right to see a serene Koi pond, complete with a water fountain & giant Koi that love to show themselves when they are fed. Continue to explore the beautiful blue stone courtyard, past the storage shed you’ll find an inviting fire pit just calling for a S’more roasting night, then onto the chicken coop & 2 garden beds waiting for planting, there is also a adorable potting shed/dollhouse. Just when you think it can’t get any better, circle back past the shed through the gate that leads to the freshly painted deck with built-in seating. This is a perfect place to start & end your day soaking up your amazing surroundings. If you must go inside, you won’t be disappointed. Through the magical front door adorned with a perfect pine cone door knocker, you enter the foyer featuring a flagstone floor & coat closet, to the left a door to the library/home office with lots of built-in bookcases, shelving & desk, plus a huge picture window with seat that hides even more storage beneath. A large utility room that hosts the laundry area completes this level. Upstairs has a large open Great Room featuring the perfect accent wall that gives a nod to the homes name. Hardwood flooring & tons of windows let in an abundance of natural light while showing off the tree tops. A sliding glass door leads to a large screened in porch nestled in nature & featuring a riverstone floor meticulously laid stone by stone, a vaulted ceiling with fan/light, enjoy it into the colder months by turning on the infrared heat. Back inside the kitchen features classic black honed granite counters with a handmade tile backsplash, double stainless steel sink, Bosch dishwasher, slate floor, then channel your inner Emeril as you enjoy cooking on the elite Italian Bertazonni gas range, if you need some extra inspiration activate the recipe finder mounted on the wall. The charming banquette seating features more storage under the benches. Down the hallway first you will find a updated full bath with a vaulted ceiling, tub/shower with tile surround & floor, to the left a bedroom featuring a beautiful lighted built-in bookcase & hardwood floor, then the 2nd bedroom just freshly painted with hardwood floor, take a breath then open the door to your slice of heaven featuring gorgeous New Zealand wood carpet, plantation shutters, door to your private patio, a huge walk-in closet with organizers & a large calming bathroom with the most beautiful tile in the shower. More to love, its located on a cul-de-sac, a short distance to the heart of Doylestown Boro & all its restaurants, museums & shopping. Words really can’t describe how special this home is, you really have to see it to believe it!
