Property Description
Elegance. Grandeur. History. Welcome to the historic Dr Newell Home of Doylestown Borough. Relax on the wide wrap-around terrace, enjoying the private and spacious yard and an occasional parade! Designed by architect Milton B. Bean, this brick Queen Anne Revival Home was thoughtfully constructed in 1893 and maintained through its life. The spacious foyer leads into the graciously sized living room focused on a heart-of-the-home fireplace with Mercer Tile details flanked by french doors leading to the terrace. To the right is a library waiting for someone to settle in with a good book. A reimagined kitchen is appealing, highly functional and open to the sunny morning room with a stained-glass window. A formal dining room complete the first floor. Private quarters are on the second and third floors and include two main bedroom suites plus three additional en suite bedrooms. The second-floor main suite includes a large dressing room. Of note are original charming romantic details, curved walls, pocket doors and clever windows. A carriage house and a rustic treehouse add a bit of fun. On a practical note, there is plenty of off-street parking. An in-town property with such a large lot is truly rare and a must-see. Don't miss this prime opportunity to own a magnificent home in the heart of Doylestown Borough, where restaurants, shops, the County Theater (for independent films), train service to Philadelphia and block after block of expertly restored historical houses create one of Pennsylvania's most appealing small towns!
