For the first time in over 50 years this tranquil retreat with all the elements one needs for an upscale country lifestyle, comes to market. Tucked away in Hilltown Township, Brook Hollow Farm epitomizes the Bucks County farm estate. Accessible via two entrances, the house is hidden from the road and situated on 15.4 acres, assuring privacy. Enjoy a slice of English countryside with a mid-18th-century stone manor house at its center. Views from the four-bedroom house are enchanting in every season. The main residence and barn date back to 1750 and have been researched and documented by the Heritage Foundation in Doylestown, PA. While its original sections offer a traditional floorplan with a formal living and dining room, later additions are designed to take advantage of the views and indoor-outdoor flow for warm weather entertaining. The formal living room is bright and airy with 8 windows and double glass doors to the outside along with a mantled fireplace. The formal dining room boasts a huge walk-in fireplace with Bee Hive baking oven inside.
