Tucked into Solebury's prime Aquetong Valley within eyeshot of a stunning stone-arched bridge, this three-level, English-style 1650 stone cottage has had some major updates: NEW slate composite roof with copper gutters and copper snow guards; ALL BRAND NEW windows (even the "newer" ones were replaced), brand new refrigerator, BRAND NEW sumptuous Main Bath AND SO MUCH MORE!!! Deep windowsills, exposed-beam ceilings, 3 beautiful fireplaces and exposed stone walls add visual interest and texture inside. Outside, extensive tiered, natural-stone patios and a party-sized deck overlooking the rear yard provide plenty of outdoor space for warm-weather enjoyment. The main kitchen/dining area is open with high ceilings, substantial crown molding, recessed lights and French doors opening to a patio and the deck, very convenient to the kitchen for those who enjoy grilling. The kitchen's newer cabinetry, Wolf professional-grade 6 burner range with stainless exhaust hood, built-in Sharp microwave, Bosch dishwasher with cabinet panel, and brand new stainless armoire-style refrigerator/freezer and Quartz countertops complement the character of the house. A handsome porcelain farmhouse sink, breakfast bar and pantry complete the kitchen area. The dining area with fireplace is expansive, able to accommodate plenty of friends and family. The living room with fireplace is divided by the stairwell, a convenient arrangement if someone wishes to watch TV in one area and have a quiet space in the other. Upstairs are two bedrooms that share a Jack & Jill bath with custom shower finished in slate tile with rainfall showerhead and handheld, and vanity with undermount sink. The daylight walkout lower level presents flexible space finished with a bluestone floor. The sizeable main room has a large fireplace and big bay window. A beautiful full bath with tub/shower is nearby as are two additional rooms (fourth bedroom and office or workout space) and a laundry room. A French door opens to a lower terrace. Mechanicals, including heat and central air, are new. This truly picturesque property is dotted with towering mature trees, weeping willows edging a small pond and running creek and fresh landscaping around the terraces. With a choice location adjacent to an array of farm estates and renovated living spaces with great indoor-outdoor flow, this is a move-in-ready home that can be your quiet hideaway or a happy gathering place. Enjoy! (Square footage is NOT accurate)
