Property Description

This home was the last to be built by David Schrenk, one of the most respected custom builders in Bucks County for many years. Starting at the Walpole Woodworkers entry gate with lampposts, the winding driveway with Belgian block edging draws you toward this beautiful brick front colonial style home with beaded cedar clapboard siding at all other elevations. The careful planting of specific trees and shrubs support a continuous bloom from early spring through summer, in a private, parklike setting. Thoughtful lighting enhances the extensive landscaping. Behind the home, a large terraced patio with Pennsylvania Slate is a quiet and relaxing place to entertain year round, with its cozy stone fire pit discrete lighting, and stone walls. Elsewhere on this large level lot you find a full size bocce court and many other areas for most any kind of outdoor fun.

Perfect for your home office. Before the library you'll find a powder room across from the laundry room with full shower, the combination these spaces could be a guest or in-law suite if you'll just close the pocket door at the kitchen before the corridor.
