Cleared meadows & wooded acreage encircle this artist’s retreat on a quiet road in upper Bucks County. What began as a small stone cottage built in 1885 has been expanded over the years into a gracious 3 bedroom home. Bluestone & reclaimed random width oak floors run throughout most of the house, with the living room fireplace boasting a locally quarried stone ledge. Semi-custom Medallion cabinets in the kitchen are set off by gold-flecked granite countertops & 6-burner electric AGA range. A 1st floor bedroom & laundry facilities are convenient amenities. Upstairs, the primary suite features a vaulted ceiling w/hand-hewn pegged beams, loft area, en suite bath & large walk-in closet. Also on this floor is a 2nd suite w/loft storage. Exterior amenities include an incredible 360-degree wraparound patio, a fully finished & heated office & detached garage. Surrounded by 14.65 acres of peaceful countryside, Lyric Acres is a joy in every season.
