Wooded 37-acre property with a 5 bedroom stone farmhouse and a 1 acre pond

Picture yourself relaxing at this 37-acre property which includes about 30 acres of woods, a one-acre pond for swimming and fishing, a huge barn, a potting shed, and a 5-bedroom stone farmhouse, parts of which date back to the late 18th/early 19th century. The house is not visible from the road.

The first floor includes a modern eat-in kitchen (equipped for a serious cook) and sunroom overlooking the pond, living room with fireplace, dining room, powder room, two bedrooms with an adjoining full bathroom, and an enclosed porch which gets the morning sun. The second floor has three bedrooms and a full bathroom. Washer and dryer in basement, 5 window ACs, WiFi, televisions in living room and master bedroom, stereo system in living room with speakers also in sunroom and outdoors.

There is extensive landscaping around the house and shed, a long hiking path through the woods near the property boundary, a 20x30 fenced vegetable garden for you to plant, a gas grill and a large shaded space with lawn furniture. The grounds and all interior and exterior maintenance are tended by a neighbor, a retired property manager who is very familiar with the house. There is a basketball hoop on the barn, and croquet, badminton, soccer and wiffle ball equipment for use in several large grass areas.

The house is an hour from Philadelphia and two hours to New York City. Convenient to supermarkets, farmers market, and a home center. It’s only 25 minutes from Doylestown, with great museums, restaurants, shops, and an independent movie theater; and two miles to the southern end of 5300-acre Nockamixon State Park, which includes a marina for sailing and kayaking, and extensive hiking and biking trails. The nearby Borough of Quakertown has recreation spaces for softball and soccer, an accessible playground, tennis and volleyball courts, an outdoor pool, and lighted baseball field.

Property must be rented for a minimum of 30 night or a maximum of 88 nights.
