(TWO LOTS totaling approx 25 acres AND THREE HOMES plus flex space!)Combining panoramic Delaware River views and total privacy, this perfectly positioned, architect-designed residence on 16.9 acres is one of the most stunning properties in Bucks County. Wind down the driveway, past a guest house and park-like grounds, to a home that showcases the design and aesthetic principles of the Arts & Crafts movement whilst incorporating all the best 21st-century conveniences. Architect Steven Selin carefully positioned this home to capture picturesque, long-distance views (15 MILES) of the Delaware river & the New Jersey palisades, including the Devil’s Tea Table outcropping. These views, magnificent in every season, are particularly enchanting from the rear bluestone terrace and in-ground pool. The custom craftsmanship of builder Brian Cahill and master woodworker Ethan Perry is evident in the home’s every detail and element, from its cedar exterior to bespoke oak doors, mantle, beams and quarter-sawn white oak millwork. High ceilings and tall windows with proper transoms create light-filled living spaces. The expansive, well-designed cook’s kitchen with island provides plentiful storage and top-grade appliances. Take in views of the river with your morning coffee while at the kitchen table or from the screened porch, sure to be a favorite relaxation spot. Designed to accommodate large dinner parties and family gatherings, the living/dining room demonstrates great fidelity to the Arts & Crafts movement, from its millwork to its rustic, stone, wood-burning fireplace, windows and light fixtures. A wall of sliders opens to the rear terrace, creating excellent indoor-outdoor flow. Upstairs, a landing divides the owner’s suite from three secondary bedrooms. One is an ensuite and the other two share a gorgeous hall bath. The main suite includes a sitting room (perfect as a nursery), sleeping quarters with a Fulper-tiled fireplace and a private covered deck, yet another inviting place to relax. The bath features timeless finishes, appropriate for the Arts & Crafts era, along with a jetted tub, shower room and water closet with bidet. A walk-in closet/dressing room with built-ins completes this retreat. Each of the secondary bedrooms has lovely views and well-outfitted closets and baths. The “tower” of the house serves as a home office with commanding views. As a bonus, the finished lower level presents plenty of flexible, high-ceiling space and a full bath. A mudroom entry with built-in desk and cabinetry adds work-from-home space, though an unfinished 650SF room above the detached two-car garage could also become office space, fitness room or use your imagination. There also is a storage and garden shed. Immaculately maintained since its completion in 1999 with radiant heat and 4 zones of heat and air conditioning, underground utilities, a generator and many other amenities, this is a one-of-a-kind residence in its design and location. ***On a separate 7.4-acre parcel is a superbly updated 1BR/1.1-bath guest house and home office, originally designed by Lynn Taylor and reworked by Ellen Happ. The interior incredible with soaring 24 foot pine ceilings with soaring stone fireplace and windows. It's airy and open with new full kitchen, living area with fireplace and loft-style sleeping area with full bath. The additional new structure is an office/flex space with a dramatic volume ceiling and powder room along with a lower level designed to serve as a wine room. Guests can enjoy every modern comfort, including central air and a whole-house generator. Enjoy dining on the beautiful HUGE stone patio and in the cooler months, enjoy evenings by the outdoor FULL stone fireplace. Lastly, this gorgeous parcel includes a 4 bay pole barn with workshop otherwise known as, "the shed." For the ultimate in privacy, breathtaking views, timeless design & quality construction, look no further than this Tinicum Township hideaway.
