Property Description
Discover a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a Ferman Lex home, crafted by one of Bucks County's most esteemed builders. This luxurious 5-bedroom, 6-bathroom center hall Colonial is nestled on 2.7 acres of picturesque farmland in prestigious Upper Makefield, offering over 8,900 square feet of refined living space. Exquisite craftsmanship is evident throughout, from intricate dentil crown moldings to solid hardwood floors. Soaring 9'-foot ceilings and large windows bathe each room in natural light, while soft, warm colors create an inviting ambiance. The heart of the home is its gourmet kitchen, featuring a gleaming granite countertop, energy-efficient appliances, and a 6-burner gas range with a center grill and dual ovens. An adjoining patio provides grand views of the expansive property, perfect for morning coffee or evening relaxation. The thoughtful layout caters to both everyday living and elegant entertaining. A formal dining room with butler's pantry sets the stage for sophisticated gatherings, while the open kitchen, family room, and breakfast nook combination creates a warm space for casual moments. A large first-floor office provides a quiet retreat, and two brick gas fireplaces add to the home's overall warmth. Five separate zones of environmental control ensure comfort for everyone throughout the year. Upstairs, the primary bedroom suite boasts an elegant dressing room with built-in dressers and ample wardrobe space including built-in shelving and glass door closets. A second-floor laundry adds convenience, while four additional bedrooms and two full bathrooms complete the upper level. The finished basement spans a massive 3,173 sq. ft., featuring a Bar, Exercise Room, Theater, Storage and Hobby area. An additional 1,657 sq. ft. of finished attic space offers endless customization possibilities. Extensive hardscaping and beautifully designed outdoor spaces enhance the property's allure. The three-car garage, equipped with 220-volt service for electric vehicles, adds a modern touch, while durable Hardie Board siding ensures longevity and low maintenance. Situated within the award-winning Council Rock School District, this home promises an exceptional educational experience. Set against a backdrop of serene streams and abundant wildlife, this Ferman Lex masterpiece seamlessly combines luxury, functionality, and natural beauty, making it the perfect haven for those seeking a prestigious lifestyle in Bucks County. Conveniently located minutes from the charming towns of Newtown, New Hope, and Washington Crossing, this home provides easy access to I-295, Princeton, New York City, and Philadelphia
