Property Description
Awaiting your arrival is this attractive, thoughtfully appointed brick facade colonial nestled on a prime half acre lot in Yardley’s desirable Longshore Estates neighborhood with scenic views of the nearby Makefield Highlands Golf Course. Offering a tastefully mature landscaped setting with a private split rail fenced rear yard, this 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath home is impressive and move-in ready from the inside and out! Step through the front door and be welcomed by the 2-story foyer with a wainscoted accented staircase along with the striking hardwood floors which flow seamlessly throughout the main level opening it to the rest of the home in all directions. Distinctive and detailed, custom moldings adorn the walls to both the formal living room, used as an office, and the elegant dining room, which flank the home’s entry way. The formal dining room features a bay window overlooking the picturesque front yard and connects to the kitchen area through a beautifully arched hallway. Across the rear of the home is the fully equipped gourmet kitchen and breakfast area featuring Carrera marble countertops, a center island dressed with an impressive Wolf gas 4-burner stovetop, stainless steel appliances including a double wall oven, and a magnitude of cabinetry. Ideal for entertaining, the kitchen allows access to the backyard’s 2-tier custom deck and bluestone patio featuring multiple seating areas. Adjoining the sunny breakfast nook is an open and stunning gathering room which makes a statement all on its own with its grand 2-columm flanked entrance, soaring vaulted ceiling, floor-to-ceiling stone gas fireplace with raised hearth, and dramatic upper level balcony overlook. Plenty of windows allow for that much sought-after natural lighting and views of the rear grounds. Down the hallway from the kitchen, you’ll find a convenient first floor laundry/mud room with access to the backyard, a quiet Study, stylish half bath and access to the 3-car garage. Upstairs by either the rear or main staircase you are greeted by a spacious hallway overlooking the rooms below. Enter through French doors to the elegant primary bedroom which is expansive and highlights a cozy sitting area and sought-after his and her walk-in closets. The luxurious main bath is neutral and offers a calming retreat with its inviting freestanding soaking tub, marble flooring, unique dual furniture vanities topped with marble along with a marble tiled frameless shower. Three additional bedrooms, all generously sized, can be found on this level and share a centrally located full bath. Downstairs you will find a finished lower level providing additional living space with multiple entertainment areas including a media room with dry bar, playroom, exercise area, wine room, and great storage. The entire home boasts stylish comfort and has been freshly painted, offers a neutral pallet and is in pristine condition. The home is fittingly located close to the Delaware River with easy access to walking/biking trails on the canal and the 295 corridor for that quick commute to Philadelphia, Princeton or NYC.
