Traditional

A rare opportunity is now avaiable to own a home in the Historic Village of Carversville where an exceptionally designed structure reflects historic and current character. This pristine residence is being offered for the first time. Tucked within the storybook surroundings of Carversville, a nationally registered historic village recognized for its preserved architecture and strong sense of community, this residence offers a place to enjoy a slower pace without sacrificing modern comfort. Known as "Stover Hill House", this renovated and expanded carriage house was inspired by historic design, built by well known craftsman Robert Johnson and thoughtfully reimagined for expansion in a collaboration between the owners and acclaimed architect Ellen Happ, whose work is celebrated for seamlessly blending restoration with renewed purpose. A welcoming approach framed by mature trees, perennial gardens, and rustic hardscape sets a tone for what awaits inside. Rich hardwood floors, shiplap accent walls, custom made doors, craftsman hardware and exceptional millwork create warmth and character. Natural light pours through generous windows in the living room, illuminating custom built-ins ready to showcase treasured collections. Gather around the fireplace for lively conversation or slip away onto private porches overlooking the village. The open and comfortable sun-lit kitchen-dining-living space spills out through French doors to a handsome covered porch and flagstone patio surrounded by a lush meadow, garden with stone wall, birdhouses and apiary. The kitchen balances beauty and function with its ample custom cabinetry, a striking prep island with a countertop made of Cherry harvested from the property, premium stainless steel appliances, commercial range, honed and leathered granite countertops, and a barn-door entrance leading to a cute butler's pantry with it's own additional oven, sink, and dishwasher. Upstairs, the master retreat features a handcrafted Juliet balcony made by a local artisan, adding a distinctive touch to to the suite. Three more bedrooms provide comfortable accomodations, while several contemporary baths possess upscale finishes. An exceptional guest suite on the second floor adapts beautifully to changing needs, contributing its own food prep, sink, frig, and dishwasher ammentities, living room, dining area, fireplace and washer and dryer. Whether hosting extended visitors, as a multi-generational quarters, or furnishing flexible arrangements for remote work or hobbies, endless possibilities await. Beyond the home itself, a sanctuary where tranquility and beauty coexist with lovely perenial gardens, meadow views, and established landscaping create an atmosphere that feels delightfully removed from the demands of the urban jungle. Additional highlights include a laundry nook, oversized two car garage, chicken coop with laying hens, and an active beehive producing fresh honey. Located mere steps from the celebrated Carversville Inn and Thyme and Plate catering (open for eat-in or take out). You'll find Doylestown, Stockton, and New Hope with museums, boutiques, restaurants, and cultural attractions easily accessible, while Princeton and Philadelphia provide numerous options for dining and entertainment. This delightfully intriquing residence offers a setting where history, craftmanship, and everyday life make something far more memorable than just a daily shelter. Come experience the story waiting to be continued! And don't forget that the New Hope Solebury School District is a top rated school system.
