Details from the listing: In 1854 the Anglemoyer's built this classic Bucks County stone farmhouse; since then, several generations of families have provided careful stewardship of this magnificent home. Each owner prudently added character and new amenities while keeping the original beauty intact. The extraordinary fieldstone farmhouse is situated on approximately five acres and exudes time honed warmth; boasting high ceilings, two foot deep stone walls, large living and dining rooms, a large family room, refinished wide-plank chestnut, walnut, pumpkin pine and oak flooring, and several pie stairways. Natural light bathes the home through numerous large windows and doorways, you will also find many closets, and gorgeous shades of original milk paint adorning many of the painted surfaces. The eat-in country kitchen opens to the side patio and features central AC; the natural stone walls, old bee hive oven and wood beamed ceiling adds to the old world charm. The large updated laundry room and powder room on the first floor provide added convenience. A graceful stairwell leads from the family room to the second level where there are three nice sized bedrooms; two updated full baths and a reading room serve these bedrooms. The stunning master bedroom with central AC and en-suite bath, features exposed stone walls, beamed ceiling, numerous windows and pie stairs to the kitchen for that late night snack; a showcase of extraordinary craftsmanship and pride. There are two large out-buildings; the larger one features a three bay carriage house; suitable for three vehicles and three enclosed rooms. The first room could be a stable while the second, with its many windows, could make the tack room, office, or studio of your dreams. The Blacksmith's room with an antique pot-belly stove has the makings of a great workshop. The second, taller barn is a charmer with its slate roof, ornamental lighting rods and sliding, suspended doors provides for numerous uses; garage, workshop, etc... A lovely Boxwood lined entrance walkway, towering Maples, flowering plants and a small orchard just west of the main house are a few of the landscape features. This is a rare opportunity to purchase a piece of history in the heart of Bucks County. The driveway was relocated from Rte. 113 to Telegraph Rd. to provide for a more tranquil setting and easier access; hence the new address of 718 Telegraph Rd. A superb location; shopping and dining are a short drive north, or south, on Rt. 113.
