    What's special

    Nestled within the quaint town of Carversville, once known as Cottageville, this remarkable property bears witness to the passage of time and the legacy of Eli Carver, a prominent town figure in the mid-1800s. The centerpiece of this enchanting estate is the cottage that has stood strong for over two centuries, a testament to architectural craftsmanship and the enduring beauty of yesteryear, and today it seamlessly accommodates the demands of modern living! The expansive slate-covered front porch, aged beams, and pumpkin pine flooring welcome you into the living room to the striking walk-in stone hearth complete with ceramic wood burning stove! From here, you can see that the expansion of the original cottage has breathed new life into its walls, resulting in living quarters that are both captivating and comfortable! Ideal for weekend retreats or year-round residence, this home boasts a bright flex-use loft, two bedrooms, three full baths, and basement storage for off-season furniture and recreation items! The ‘addition’ to the home boasts cathedral ceiling, wood beams, skylights, and stunning stone architectural walls! A modern galley-style kitchen with custom wood cabinetry, recessed lighting, honed stone breakfast bar, and gas cooking is great for entertaining close friends for brunch, or for hosting indoor parties and outdoor alfresco meals! Situated on a meticulously landscaped and hardscaped lot, the property offers TWO YARDS and is a haven for gardening enthusiasts and lovers of the outdoors. Whether you are strolling through the fragrant gardens, planting vegetables in the raised beds, or enjoying the dappled sunlight beneath the shade of trees, the yard areas offer all the privacy a homeowner could ask for! There is a two-car detached garage with parking, plus an additional parking pad available on the opposite side of the property. The seller also includes a portable generator, floor a/c units! Whether it is the vibrant hues of autumn leaves or the glistening blanket of snow in winter, this property is a canvas exuding the history of a charming Bucks County village. Just a short drive brings you into downtown Doylestown, Lahaska and Peddlers Village, or bustling New Hope on the river! The opportunity to own a home such as this comes along once in a lifetime – make it yours today!
