Offering an extraordinary blend of luxury, privacy, craftsmanship, and effortless living, this remarkable residence is just minutes from the shops, restaurants, and amenities of Downtown Doylestown. A sweeping circular driveway framed by Belgian block curbing creates an impressive approach to this distinctive R.

With 7 bedrooms and 5.5 baths, the home offers exceptional flexibility for everyday living, entertaining, extended family, and guests, while expansive windows capture beautiful views of the surrounding landscape from virtually every room.

Additional luxury features include an elevator providing convenient access to all levels, whole-house sound system, lawn irrigation system, and motorized chandelier lift for effortless maintenance. At the heart of the home is an impressive chef’s kitchen, beautifully appointed with quartz countertops, custom inset cabinetry, a 48-inch Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer, and a Dacor commercial six-burner range. An oversized walk-in pantry with built-in shelving provides exceptional storage. The open-concept design flows naturally into the family room and spectacular sunroom, creating an ideal setting for both intimate gatherings and grand-scale entertaining. The sunroom, with its soaring cathedral ceiling and two walls of windows, brings the beauty of the surrounding property indoors. An expansive 8-foot sliding glass door from the kitchen opens directly to the large outdoor deck and patio, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. The inviting family room features a wood-burning fireplace, custom built-ins, and a wet bar, while the elegant dining room showcases 11+ foot ceilings and stunning new lighting. The first-floor Owner’s Suite is a private retreat, featuring two walk-in closets, dual vanity and water closet areas, and a luxurious spa-inspired shower. A separate family entrance leads into an exceptionally spacious mudroom, complete with a large walk-in closet and dedicated laundry room. French doors with transom windows open to a sophisticated private office, highlighted by hardwood floors and a gas fireplace. Upstairs, five large bedrooms, all with grand closets and three additional baths provide abundant accommodations for family and guests. The fully finished walk-out lower level dramatically expands the living space, offering a spacious great room, exercise room, game room, additional finished rooms for flexible use, and a private bedroom with full bath featuring wide doorways for accessibility. Abundant windows and two full-size sliding doors fill the lower level with natural light and provide direct access to the expansive patio. Outdoor living is truly exceptional. The patio is anchored by a striking stone wood-burning fireplace with built-in pizza oven, complemented by a separate fire pit—creating an inviting destination for entertaining, relaxing, and enjoying memorable evenings surrounded by the peaceful landscape. This extraordinary property offers a rare combination of privacy, luxury, and versatility, all in an exceptional location just minutes from Doylestown Borough’s renowned shops, restaurants, schools, and cultural attractions, with convenient access to Routes 202, 622, and 263.
