LIVING IN WEATHERFIElD! Twenty-six years ago, the proud owners of 20 Weatherfield Drive fell in love with this beautiful estate property and setting here in the heart of Bucks County's Upper Makefield Township! The lot and location are ideal as the right side and back of the house both have open space giving the property a much larger feel and a sense of privacy. Although this 7 Bedroom, 5 full and 1 half bathroom home features many historical elements such as transom windows, chair rails, crown molding, it is truly a transitional home and offers many other architectural features such as the covered porch which serves as an outdoor living room in the shoulder seasons and summer. The porch's friendship stairs open into the gardens, which are designed to be beautiful throughout the year. The gardens have been on the New Hope Garden Tour and are often the backdrop for family photos. Back inside, the main foyer entrance is flanked on the left by a formal living room and on the right by the dining room that features painted murals that match the historical nature of the Washington Crossing area. The kitchen is the heart of any home and this one features a large center island, custom cabinetry, sizable pantry, premium appliances and a generous size breakfast area. The kitchen opens into the great room. Here you'll find gleaming hardwood flooring, brick wood burning fireplace with brick hearth and raised panel surround, gorgeous built-in bookcase and a 3 panel transom French door exiting onto the covered porch. The first floor study is currently a music/reading room a boasts a second wood burning brick fireplace, hardwood flooring and cathedral ceiling which adds to the dramatic feel of the room. There is a first floor laundry room and powder room that complete the main level. Access can be gained to the second floor via two different staircases. Upstairs is the main bedroom suite with volume ceilings, hardwood floors, walk-in closet, the master bathroom and a third wood burning brick fireplace. There are 4 additional bedrooms and 2 more full bathrooms on this level. The third floor features 2 bedrooms, full bathroom and a large sitting area. Below is the finished walkout basement with full bathroom and several large unfinished areas that can be used for storage or to create more finished space. Outside is just breathtaking. There are 1.55 acres with several gardens and areas to enjoy rest and relaxation. As for location, it just couldn't be better as 20 Weatherfield is situated almost right between Manhattan and Philadelphia. If you enjoy the outdoors, Washington Crossing Park is just a few minutes away where you can bike, run or just walking dogs on the many trails along the canal and Delaware River. The reenactment of Washington crossing the Delaware is a tradition here and a highlight of the holiday season. The house is perfectly located for some of Bucks County's best dining and activities too. Consider a move to Weatherfield, you won't be disappointed!
