261 W. Court Street, Doylestown, PA 18901 - For Sale

BEAUTIFUL DOYLESTOWN BORO VICTORIAN The Joseph Harvey house is a lovely example of a late 19th century Doylestown Victorian set on one of its most beautiful streets. Beckoning you to sit and relax, the wide rocking chair front porch overlooks the graceful landscaping of the open front yard. Set well back, but still within welcoming distance, this is a porch to share wine and stories on a sweet Spring evening. Brackets under the eaves, a center peaked roof and calming symmetry make this beautiful Victorian irresistible. Inside the eleven foot ceilings and lovely turned staircase, along with the original pine floors, provides the first glimpse of the enchantment to come. The living room features tall windows, large wood burning fireplace with brick surround and deep mantle and built in floor to ceiling bookcases. The room is so large that it is currently also being used for formal dining. The family room has, in the past, also been used as a large dining room and features deep moldings and a sunny bay window. What a gorgeous kitchen! Exposed beams, handsome cabinetry, wonderful counter space and a fabulous breakfast room overlooking the spacious backyard, patio and two story detached brick carriage house. The breakfast room is a treat, with walls of windows to enjoy the view and a great little gas fireplace stove to keep you cozy. A tiled half bath tucked under the stairs completes this floor. On the second floor are three really spacious bedrooms, an appealing hall bath and laundry room. The bedrooms have great closets-a plus in a home of this vintage! Down a hallway and up a flight of stairs is the dramatic master bedroom. Features include: exposed beams, hardwood floors, skylights, a red gas fireplace stove and a gorgeous ensuite bath will make this room a hard one to leave! The grounds are simply beautiful! $939,900 MLS 6531427 Call Jay 215-431-1199
