Listing description

Extraordinary opportunity to own 90 acres in Central Bucks County. First time on the market in more than 75 years, the Yerkes Farm of Buckingham Township is available for the next generation of land stewards. This historic property, consisting of two tax parcels, includes a charming stone farmhouse, a detached garage, and a classic red bank barn. The preserved 80-acre parcel has been farmed for over two centuries and is eligible for continued crop cultivation, while the additional 10-acre parcel—home to the farmhouse and barn—is not under conservancy. The early 19th-century stone home retains much of its original character, with a traditional floor plan that includes formal living and dining rooms. A striking stone walk-in fireplace serves as the focal point of the eat-in kitchen. Upstairs, three bedrooms and a full bath offer comfortable living space. Period details, such as pumpkin pine floors, three fireplaces, vintage hardware, and deep window sills, create a warm, timeless appeal. A two-story frame addition seamlessly blends with the original structure, offering a spacious family room with a wood-burning fireplace and built-in bookshelves, a laundry room, and a fourth bedroom with an ensuite full bath. Exposed stone walls, wood paneling, and other period materials in the addition ensure an attractive and cohesive design. Enjoy peaceful views of the farm from the large, screened-in porch—perfect for relaxing and entertaining. The quintessential red bank barn, over 4,000 square feet in size, features a distinctive open forebay with tapered concrete columns. The second floor, traditionally used for hay and farm equipment, offers additional space for storage or as a venue for gatherings. The two-car detached garage provides ample parking, while mature shade trees and shrubs ensure year-round beauty. Conveniently located with easy access to Doylestown, New Hope, and Newtown, this exceptional property offers a rare chance to own a piece of Bucks County history. Don’t miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for this exceptional farm.

Assessment note: this home is assessed at $34,240, well below the ~$124,600 its asking price implies at Bucks County's common level ratio (5.6%). A sale near asking can invite a school-district assessment appeal that could raise the bill by roughly $15,921/year. Factor that into an offer.

Recomputed from the county assessment ($34,240, 1972 base year) × current millage. School millage is from the latest year certified by the Pennsylvania Department of Education (2025-26); districts adopt the next year's budgets each June, and we update when the state certifies the statewide file in the fall. Portals typically reprint the recorded 2024 bill. Pennsylvania does not reassess on sale. Estimate only. Verify with Bucks County before relying on it.

Taxes use NookLocal's estimate at current millage rates, not the stale figure on the MLS. The default rate is the average 30-year rate as of July 2026; insurance is estimated at 0.35% of the price per year. Below 20% down, lenders usually add mortgage insurance, which this estimate doesn't include. Estimate only; verify before relying on it.
