This is a UNIQUE opportunity to turn a great house into a FABULOUS home! Located on over twelve acres, this custom built home has the space to spread out, a practical floor plan, AND beautiful views of Bucks County farmland that will remain unchanged. Enter from the inviting front porch, through the double doors, to a large foyer with a pretty curved staircase. Step down to the large, living room to the left, with wide plank, wood floors. Directly across the hall is a cozy den with exposed beams, where a stone fireplace, flanked by built in bookshelves, will keep you warm on winter evenings. A wall of glass doors exposes the picturesque backyard, which lies just beyond the screened in porch that runs along the den and master suite at the back of the home. There are pristine hardwood floors throughout the full kitchen, including a separate eating area, just off the den, which continue into the formal dining room. Down the hall, at the end of the house, is a master suite that is just begging for the makeover that will turn it into an oasis to be escaped to at the end of a long day, and includes a working fireplace, glass doors that open to the porch, multiple closets, and a spacious bathroom. Just down the hall is another bedroom that could easily be an office or guest room, with its own full bath. Finishing off the first floor, and buffering the oversized three car garage to the kitchen, is a large laundry room, with multiple closets and a full bathroom. Upstairs are two very spacious bedrooms with lots of natural light, crown molding, walk in closets, and well maintained hardwood floors. The larger of the two bedrooms has a door to the unfinished space that runs over the entire master suite below, and would make for a wonderful bonus room. Down the hall is another bedroom, with a walk in closet and a large cedar closet with built in drawers, which could easily have access to the full attic space over the three car garage, currently accessed from walkup stairs in the garage. Between the two bedrooms sits a large bathroom with a double vanity. There is a full basement, fit out with wine storage, built in cabinets and a fireplace. The basement can be accessed from the kitchen, as well as through a door from the garage. Picturesque, Bucks County views from the screened in porch and back deck & hot tub, and a backyard plenty big to accommodate a pool and play area, are awaiting the next owner! While this home, built in 1985, is in need of some TLC and repairs, the high end bones are just incredible. All this, a whole house generator, and Central Bucks Schools! ***This home is currently in the process of a land preservation settlement with Bucks County, Pennsylvania/Plumstead Township. Of the 12.48 acres associated with this property, which is part of 68 acres of farmland being preserved in the area. This process is underway and is estimated to be complete in 12 months. The owners are looking to enter into an early occupancy agreement (lease), separate from the sale of the property, at a monthly rate of $2675.00, which would include rent, taxes, and insurance. The owners are willing to have the buyers commence any renovations buyers might want to make during this time. Settlement would occur when land preservation was completed/12 months, with up to two consecutive three month extensions, to allow for any delays in preservation settlement. Should the land preservation agreement not be reached/settled between sellers and Bucks County, Pennsylvania/Plumstead Township in the allotted 18 months of this agreement, sellers would negotiate a reasonable fee to extend closing on the sale of said property at the agreed upon price, or relinquish their rights to preserve the land. Additionally, sellers would like to continue to farm the preserved acres, a requirement of the preservation program; the buyer would have the option to farm them as long as it met the goals of the program. The buyers would have a building envelo
