Property Description

Tucked into the gently rolling landscape of picturesque Bedminster Township, this remarkable Bucks County estate represents a rare convergence of history, architecture, and modern luxury. Set on 12.7 private acres and anchored by a beautifully restored c.1840 brick Colonial farmhouse and original settler’s cottage, the property traces its roots to land first granted to German Mennonite immigrant David Culp in the 18th century and remains part of Bedminster Township’s Historic Resources Inventory. Thoughtfully reimagined over time, the estate has evolved into a sophisticated country compound where preserved historic character and contemporary design exist in perfect balance. Reclaimed hardwood floors, artisan millwork, varied ceiling treatments, and refined modern finishes create interiors that feel both timeless and current. A stately columned front porch welcomes guests to a home designed equally for grand-scale entertaining and comfortable daily living. At the heart of the residence is a stunning open-concept stone addition encompassing gourmet kitchen, family room, library, formal entry, and luxurious primary suite wing. The kitchen features honed marble countertops, an oversized island, custom soft-close cabinetry, a 6-burner Wolf range with griddle and double ovens, pot filler, Miele steam oven, microwave drawer, and a full wall of Sub-Zero refrigeration including wine and beverage storage. The adjoining butler’s pantry offers a Miele coffee station, ice maker, reverse osmosis system, and extensive custom cabinetry. The kitchen flows into the family room with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and stone fireplace, while the adjacent library offers built-in shelving and intimate gathering space. Formal entertaining rooms include a gracious dining room opening to the covered porch and courtyard beyond, as well as an elegant living room with fireplace and original 1840s entry doors. A gallery hallway leads to the main-level primary suite with tray ceiling, Mendota fireplace, French doors to the pool terrace, and spa-inspired bath with radiant-heated floors. A private office with built-ins and motorized shades sits just beyond pocket doors. An elevator connects the main level to the finished lower level, offering exceptional additional living space including a media room with wet bar, fitness studio with rubber flooring, half bath, laundry room with quartz countertops and utility sink, abundant organized storage, and a private guest suite with separate entrance and covered porch. Upstairs are three beautifully appointed en suite bedrooms with radiant-heated bathroom floors and custom finishes including one bath with a freestanding clawfoot tub. Just beyond the main residence, the renovated settler’s cottage provides a charming independent guest house with its own address. Ideal for extended family, guests, caretaker, or private retreat accommodations, the cottage features a living area with kitchen, full and half bath, and bedroom with vaulted beamed ceiling and loft space. Outdoor spaces rival those of a luxury resort. A multi-level flagstone terrace surrounds the infinity-edge heated saline pool and spa, while the stone cabana offers a wood-burning FP, grilling kitchen, dining area, and full bath with river-stone shower. Additional amenities include a koi pond with waterfalls and bridge, life-sized chessboard, firepit, garage, greenhouse, chicken coops, and sweeping views over Deep Run and woodland. Modern efficiency and convenience are seamlessly integrated with smart-home technology, whole-house generator, solar array, EV charging station, app-controlled irrigation and lighting, multi-zone high-efficiency HVAC, and multiple tankless hot water systems. Located just minutes from historic Doylestown with convenient access to Philadelphia and New York, this extraordinary property offers a rare opportunity to own a fully realized Bucks Co estate where history, privacy, and modern luxury come together in enduring fashion.
