A breathtaking, quiet retreat on approximately 17.85 acres, this home has been preserved and restored with sensitivity to historic detail and green energy conservation. The kitchen takes you back in time, with period, museum-quality primitive cabinetry concealing the finest energy-efficient appliances and modern conveniences. The kitchen flows seamlessly into a sun-filled breakfast area/conservatory that overlooks a babbling brook and is warmed by a Vermont Castings wood stove with custom stone hearth and reclaimed wide pine plank flooring. The elegant living room is accented with antique woodwork, a walk-in fireplace, and a volume ceiling with soaring antique glass windows. The home includes three charming bedrooms, one with a fireplace, two with large picture windows, and one with a lovely window seat. A well-designed addition houses the family room, with a period woodstove hearth and reclaimed, wide pine plank flooring. The spacious master bedroom suite features an en-suite bath, with Jacuzzi and walk-in closet. There are beautiful views from every room.
Custom exterior renovations include historic period shutters and hardware, and cedar garage doors, trellis, pergola, window sills, and beams. The home is accented by a lovely English country garden, a streamside brick patio, and a pond with waterfall. There are acres of woodland trails and pasture, complete with a barn and fenced areas for both pets and livestock. Located in a very private setting, the property includes an island meadow that adjoins the Perkiomen Creek, and is a truly peaceful oasis.
