I could see myself setting up house here…but alas, it is out of my price range by about 3.1 million dollars! Even so, great pictures.

I drove by this house and was so spellbound I made a u-turn and sat in the driveway. If I had the money to afford this house comfortably–it would be mine. As it is it’s only a dream–but what a nice dream!

I live in this area and drove by this house just this week. It looks absolutely ridiculous as it is directly on the street. 4.7 acres and they couldn’t have placed it closer to the copse of tree to the right or behind!!!! For the person who asked about location earlier - it’s a good hour commute to Philadelphia or 1:30 to NY

Oh wow! My husband walked past and I called him to see the house, his comment was “where is the photo of the inside of the garages?”. Shows where his priorities are!

I’m late on this one, but wanted to comment anyway…
Loove the floors and the kitchen.

It is very funny that there are no plants here.

And now that it’s pointed out, the house exterior would look 5x better without the garage doors there.

Like April, the only part of the house that I don’t like is the over-done molding in the bedroom. I like the idea of building a house that will be around much longer than most of the wasteful McMansions. The interiors remind me of the updates to many of the turn of the century brownstones/limestones in NYC.

One more thing while we’re nit pickin’. Please send a memo to put garage doors on the side or back. Not too much to ask.

New Hope is a growing area just outside of Philly. A lot of money from Bucks County (which has for years been a very desirable area) seems to be moving that way. New Hope proper is a very trendy kinda hip area with a lot of artist and trendy shops. Think Starbucks and Range Rovers.

The staircase is gorgeous. The rest of the house is beautiful, but NMS. I just can’t imagine shuffling around in my pajama pants and bathrobe in that kind of a space!

And ITA about the landscaping, or lack there of. How about some hedges? a potted plant? Something!

I agree with Marie. I actually love the interior, the exterior - not so much. I like how uncluttered it is - alas, I’m sure that will not be the case once somebody rich purchases it and lets their designer loose. (unless of course it was a designer with tastes more like my own )
