Property Description
Welcome to Fox Hunt Estates. This spectacular Estate style home is nestled far off the road on 2.1 acres with an enchanting tree lined entrance leading to the circular driveway in front of the home. The current owners have spared no expense on upgrades throughout and have shown meticulous care/upkeep to this 5 bedroom, 3.5 bath, 4,800+ square foot home. As you enter, you are greeted by pristine hardwood floors that flow throughout most of the first floor. The renovated kitchen is a chef's dream with cabinets galore & tons of work space to meet all of your cooking needs. The center island has plenty of room for seating to keep the conversations going while preparing your meals. Find a built in Viking 6-burner gas cook-top & a Wolf steamer. Cooking for a crowd is not an issue with the double wall ovens & warming drawer. You will also find ample storage space throughout the kitchen as well as a butler set up with sink, beverage refrigerator & wine frig, & industrial ice maker, all Viking brand. Off of the kitchen area is the addition of a breakfast room surrounded by windows to enjoy the scenic views overlooking the pool & tree lined backdrop of the private backyard. The family room is the heart of the home with a stone fireplace centered between two story windows on each side allowing tons of light & views of the serene backyard. The living room is currently being used as a billiards room with built-ins to display items of special interest. The dining room is adorned with shadow boxing to give your dining guest a feeling of elegance & tranquility. The first floor also boasts two separate home offices. One has a sliding glass door leading to the side patio & the other has built in cabinetry & desk space for an efficient work area. This room is also large enough to include two cozy chairs for those times that you want to relax with a good book or enjoy coffee with a friend. Finishing off the first floor is the half bath & the mud room that flows into the oversized three car side entry garage. As you ascend the stately staircase to the second floor you will find the master bedroom off by itself on one side of the home. As you enter, you will immediately think of a presidential suite in 5 star hotel. Your eyes are drawn to the multi-layered tray ceiling and double sided fireplace connecting to both the bedroom & master bath. The walk-in closet has plenty of space for hanging clothes/ accessories. The large sitting room also encompasses more cabinet/shelving space behind closed doors for shoes, clothing & whatever other needs you may have. The master bath is spacious with plenty of counter space, dual sinks & make up vanity area with seating. The enormous master shower has glass block walls for privacy while still allowing light to filter through. Lastly, relax in the jetted tub while enjoying the dual sided fireplace as you soak. The three oversized bedrooms all with large closets & ceiling fans share the unique full bath with two individual vanities each with their own sinks & a separate room for privacy with a bathtub/shower and commode. The second floor laundry room is large enough to also accommodate all of your workout equipment. You will find glass doors overlooking the pool area & a huge workout space making both activities more enjoyable. The finished basement allows for more living space with recessed lighting, newer carpet & subtle finishes. This lower level also includes a bedroom and full bath along with a TV/gaming area. The unfinished space is ample in size to accommodate all or your storage needs. If all of that wasnt enough, spend time at the Carlton pool with diving board, jacuzzi, waterfall & sitting wall. In addition there is a built in fire-pit and fenced veg/flower garden. All of the benefits of Central Bucks school district, Plumstead taxes & easy access to NYC & Philadelphia, make this a great find. Of special note: surround sound T/O 1st floor & 2-zone HVAC system.
