Property Description
This gorgeous freshly painted Toll Brothers Center Hall Colonial home(Mercer Grand model) is nestled on a premium, almost one-acre lot, in one of the most desirable and prestigious communities of Richboro, Northampton Ridge. When you enter the 2-story foyer, you immediately notice the stunning curved staircase and the hardwood flooring that runs throughout the whole level, apart from the family and study rooms. To the left, you will see a bright living room. To the right, is the formal dining room, in which you and your family can gather together to celebrate the holidays. Crown molding and chair railings add a fine touch to both rooms. Continue back to a large eat-in kitchen with cherry wood cabinets and a low maintenance white Corian countertop, along with a breakfast area and French doors leading to the sunny and bright sunroom. Next to the kitchen, a spacious family room with cathedral ceiling and skylights that fill the room with natural sunlight. During the cold months, you can enjoy and relax with your favorite drink next to the gas fireplace (can be converted back to wood if desired). To the right of the family room, French doors lead to the office/study room. In addition, the main level offers a powder room and a mud/laundry room. The mud room has cherry wood cabinets, a Corian countertop, Asko washer and dryer (installed in 2020) and has one door leading to the three-car garage and another one leading to the backyard. The upper-level hall will greet you with a view over the railings of the two-story entry foyer and will lead you to a primary bedroom which has an open sitting room, a walk-in closet, and an en-suite bathroom. Primary bathroom has a shower stall, two individual sinks, large soaking whirlpool bath next to the window overlooking the beautiful backyard and vaulted ceiling. Down the hall, are the other three generously-sized bedrooms and a full large bath, with double sink cabinet and a tub shower. Fully finished basement with additional 1000 sq.ft. of living space, including an exercise room with Body Solid weight system, a large TV viewing room, a game/media room with a Vitale-brand billiard table, a full bathroom as well as two rooms that can be used as guest bedrooms and/or a craft room. One of the rooms has a cedar closet. Basement staircase has a chairlift, which can be easily removed if desired. Back on the main level, you can step out of the sunroom to the backyard which offers a beautifully hardscaped 2 level patio, in-ground vinyl pool and a 350 sq.ft. pool house. The pool house can be also used as an office, with 3-zone baseboard heat and an in-wall A/C unit, a kitchenette and fridge, separate toilet and shower room with cubbies for lots of bathing suits and towels, as well as storage space for pool supplies and equipment. All utilities connect to the main house (electric, water, sewer pump, and alarm) and the pool house comes with its own separate water heater and electric panel. There is a large flat grass yard behind the pool to give you lots of space for outdoor games. Both roofs (main house and pool house) were replaced in 2014, both HVAC units were replaced in 2012, both water heaters were replaced in 2020. A large 17KW Generator, installed in 2012 and wired into house for auto start, covers all the critical appliances and pumps. A lightning rod system with two ground points helps protect the house during thunderstorms.The house has a Ring door bell, two security cameras and a security monitoring system.This beautiful house is located in one of the best school districts, Council Rock, and has everything you need for the finest living in a great neighborhood.
