2902 LOWER SAUCON RD, Springtown, PA 18081 - For Sale

2-Story,Detached, Farm House - SPRINGTOWN, PA The sound of a water wheel provides a soothing background for this historic home in the quaint village of Springtown, Pennsylvania. The property's first resident, Conrad Hess, built the stone settler's cottage in 1785. This charming structure was the prelude for a future main house and barn on this half-acre setting. A large spring, captured on canvas by prominent local artists, was the site of a brook trout hatchery in the 1930s, adding to the rich history of this property. A covered rocking chair porch welcomes visitors to the 1885 current residence. High ceilings, exposed stone and brick, and deep-silled windows are found in many rooms. Formal living and dining areas feature hardwood floors and built-in cabinetry and bookshelves. Main level creature comforts include a modern kitchen with cathedral ceiling, convenient laundry room, and master bedroom and full bath. Upstairs, three sunny bedrooms have wood floors, ceiling fans and plentiful storage. The lower level offers ample recreational space and a third bathroom. A lovely shade tree provides a natural canopy for the back deck with views of the picturesque spring. Steps away, an early 1900's barn with attached carport and second floor protects vehicles and equipment from the elements. Located in Upper Bucks County with good access to the Lehigh Valley, Springtown Village is a pleasant mixture of new and old and a reminder of a life with few complications.
