Listing description

A truly distinctive Bucks County estate, set on approximately 22 private acres near the Delaware River, this extraordinary compound offers a rare combination of architectural character, privacy, acreage, and exceptional lifestyle potential. A picturesque drive winds through rolling meadows and mature trees, revealing an exceptional private retreat composed of three unique structures: the main residence, a charming guest house/tea house, and a classic barn. The main residence showcases refined European Victorian-inspired craftsmanship, blending stone, cedar, and slate with Doric columns, extensive stained glass, custom millwork, carved fireplaces, and an array of timeless architectural details. A dramatic porcelain-paved foyer introduces an elegant series of living spaces, including a library, formal parlor and dining room, gourmet kitchen, and expansive den accented by reclaimed barn beams. A substantial stone patio extends the living experience outdoors, overlooking the picturesque grounds. One of the residence’s most intriguing features is a private passageway leading to an in-law suite above the garage, offering a secluded retreat for extended family or guests. The luxurious primary suite features a carved-marble fireplace, private balcony, and spa-inspired bath, creating a serene and sophisticated sanctuary. The approximately 2,034-square-foot guest house provides additional flexibility, with a bedroom suite, full bath, fully equipped prep kitchen, and an approximately 520-square-foot deck overlooking the estate. A separate tea house offers yet another distinctive setting for relaxing, entertaining, or enjoying the surrounding landscape. The expansive grounds invite an exceptional range of possibilities, from outdoor entertaining and gardening to recreation, hobbies, and potential equestrian use. A classic barn and fenced pasture complement the property’s rural character, while multiple gathering areas and substantial parking enhance its potential for private celebrations and special events, subject to applicable approvals and restrictions. Extensively renovated in 2025–2026, the estate thoughtfully incorporates modern comfort and updated infrastructure while preserving the architectural character, craftsmanship, and distinctive details that make this property so extraordinary. A rare Bucks County compound offering privacy, acreage, distinctive architecture, multiple structures, guest accommodations, and remarkable lifestyle possibilities. A 3D video tour, floor plans, and additional property details are available. This is a property that should be experienced in person.

Assessment note: this home is assessed at $98,740, well below the ~$154,000 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 $8,292/year. Factor that into an offer.

Recomputed from the county assessment ($98,740, 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 2026 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.
