$895,000
Down a scenic Solebury road, this distinctive offering has the feel of a small country compound, with two separate dwellings, a workshop and the kind of flexibility that invites big ideas. The main house has an easygoing, vintage character and plenty of opportunity to make it your own. A screened porch sets the tone, while inside, a spacious kitchen connects to an open living and dining area warmed by a woodstove. A combined laundry and powder room completes the first floor. Upstairs are three bedrooms and two full baths, including a private bath in the primary bedroom. It’s the second building, however, that opens up an entirely different set of possibilities. The workshop provides dedicated space for making, building or creating, while upstairs, a self-contained studio apartment with a kitchen and full bath could serve as guest quarters, creative space or a home office. It even has its own outdoor area. A full basement provides additional storage plus there are two garage bays. The property needs some updating, but that may be part of its appeal. Rather than paying for someone else’s vision, there’s an opportunity here to preserve what’s charming, rethink what isn’t and create something all your own. Beyond the property itself, the location captures so much of what makes Solebury distinctive, with scenic country roads, preserved landscapes and easy access to the villages, restaurants, galleries and cultural attractions of Bucks County. New Hope and Lambertville are just a short drive away. For creative pursuits, work-from-home space, potential extra income or simply the luxury of having room to spread out, this is the sort of Bucks County property that’s increasingly hard to find: a little unconventional, full of possibility and ready for its next chapter.
