This historic 1820 stone farmhouse sits on just under two and half acres in the village of Fountainville, only minutes from the vibrant heart of Doylestown, Bucks County. Although it definitely needs a little TLC, this well-loved home has an abundance of classic Bucks County charm, with hardwood floors, exposed beams and original architectural details throughout - it's just waiting for its new owner to bring it back to its original glory. The large living room (with newer hardwood floors) features plenty of windows, built-in shelving, and a glass-doored, wood-burning fireplace. Beyond the living room is the formal dining room with more built-in cabinetry and a dutch farm door that opens to a beautiful and spacious screened in porch with plenty of room for outdoor entertaining (plus a hot tub). A more recent addition includes a cozy kitchen, a sunny breakfast nook, a spacious living/family area with vaulted ceiling, and a walk-in pantry that could easily be converted to a powder room, laundry room, or full bath. Upstairs are three bedrooms with ample closet space, a hall linen closet, and a full bath with tub/shower. The fully fenced backyard includes a small pond and a chicken coop. There's also a large shed for gardening equipment and mowers, along with an oversized three-car garage that could easily double as a workshop. The home faces a vineyard across the street, surrounded by larger, well-kept properties that provide plenty of privacy and uninterrupted views. Part of a 250 acre parcel that belonged to Abraham Hill in the mid 18th Century, this home is a fantastic opportunity to own a piece of Bucks County history!
