Tucked away in Buckingham Township between New Hope and Doylestown Pa., Spring Meadow Farm epitomizes the Bucks County farm estate, a tranquil retreat with all of the elements one needs for an upscale country lifestyle. Accessible via two gated entrances, the house is hidden from the road and situated on 18.3 acres, assuring privacy. The pristine setting with 2 stone-walled ponds and creek is a slice of English countryside with a late 18th-century stone manor house at its center. Views from the five-bedroom house are enchanting in every season. A fabulous party barn, comfortable guest house, pool, tennis court, garage, stables and paddocks perfect for horses, goats, sheep or other hobby farm endeavors add to the property's completeness. The main residence is a gracious retreat with seven fireplaces. While its original sections offer a traditional floorplan with formal living and dining rooms on each side of the center entry hall, later additions are designed to take advantage of the views and indoor-outdoor flow for warm-weather entertaining. The family room is lined in windows and has French doors that open to a large bluestone patio with hillside and stream views. Ever-blooming gardens come to life each spring and provide color all season. A richly paneled library with stone fireplace and hidden bar opens through leaded-glass doors to a garden room with accordion doors that join the indoor and outdoor environments. The light-filled Draper kitchen with island is open to a casual dining area and is well designed for entertaining. Private quarters include five bedrooms and 3.3 baths. The main bedroom suite provides a large sitting room/office/exercise space with private balcony offering exquisite sunrise/sunset views. A walk-in-closet, bedroom with fireplace, and updated bath with radiant heat, soaking tub and other luxe features create comfortable accommodation. A pub/game grotto, on the lower level and plenty of outdoor space provide ample recreation options. There is garage parking for eight cars. The barn is a wealth of open square footage on two floors for almost any hobby or entertainment one wants to pursue. The comfortable, roomy one-bedroom guest house is set away from the main house. Nearby is the two-stall barn that opens to fenced pastures.
