Farmhouse/National Folk

Welcome to Tiger Knoll. This is a rare opportunity to own a 7-acre estate close to downtown with history that dates back to 1790. It was lovingly restored when the bulk of the existing home was built between 1991-1995. If you want to be close to Doylestown borough but are yearning for the quiet country living, then this is the place! From the moment you enter you will feel the warmth and quality of this home. In the “newer” part of the home you will find a gracious family room boasting a beamed ceiling, wide plank wood flooring, a large newer bay window and a brick fireplace. The large kitchen offers wood flooring, Amish craftsman cabinetry granite counters, a large island with a cooktop and prep sink, beamed ceiling, glass front cabinetry. Sub Zero fridge/freezer, dishwasher, trash compactor, 2 ovens, a built in work-space, drawers and tons of storage. The light filled breakfast room has a wall of windows overlooking the bluestone terrace and is open to the beautiful screened porch with vaulted ceilings . A half bath and large tiled floor mud room round out the main floor of the newer part. In the original section of the home you will love the dining room which feels like George Washington could have eaten there! Gorgeous wide plank flooring, beamed ceiling and a stone walk in fireplace along with the original windows ( enclosed by storm windows) make this a truly special room. From here we wander into the main living room with more of that stunning wood flooring, a brick fireplace flanked by windows and charming built in cabinets. Need to work from home? The private office has a brick fireplace, more original windows and its own entrance for visitors. Upstairs you will find 2 good sized en suite bedrooms with large closets. One bathroom has a jacuzzi tub! There are 2 more large bedrooms that share a hall bath PLUS a bonus flex room that could be just about anything you need! Are you looking for in law quarters? Art studio? Man cave? The sellers were thinking ahead when in 1997 they built a large storage space above the garage. They finished it with lovely laminate flooring and the plumbing and electric are there for you to add a kitchenette and bath! There are vaulted ceilings and a balcony overlooking the grounds…simply perfect! The basement houses the laundry room and a large storage area. The laundry chute from the 2nd floor makes laundry day a breeze! Outside you will find 3 out-buildings including the very rustic 2 story original horse barn, complete with the old stall door. The dirt floors have been covered with block for ease of use. This building houses the electrical for the Generac whole house generator. The stone “cottage” is what remains of a large 2 story bank barn ( the bank and some ruins are still there!) Inside you will find a vast garage with 2 garage doors, well hidden from outside. The original stonework is exposed making this a conversation piece. The separate 1 car garage is an excellent storage space that used to be attached to the home so it has the wiring in the walls however there is no power here. The garage door is inside in the ceiling so it could be put back in service if the wall were to be removed. Out back the bluestone terrace looking down over lawn, creek and woods is a great place to sit and relax to enjoy the privacy, serenity and quiet of this property.
