The house was recently outfitted with a propane-fired whole-house generator. The basement has been waterproofed and provides a laundry area along with plenty of storage. The primary suite bedroom has superb views of the rear grounds through its wide bank of windows, and its full bath is finished in Carrera marble and a beautiful console sink. Two staircases lead to the second-floor bedrooms, a series of unique and good-sized quarters, along with a recently updated hall bath.

A sitting room, which could be used as a bedroom, a formal dining room with fireplace, and living room with walk-in fireplace, complete the main first-floor living spaces.

Just off the kitchen, the first-floor full bath with oversized steam shower is finished bottom to top in Carrera marble and subway tile. A four-season sunroom off the kitchen overlooks patios and gardens. It is one of the most pleasant views a chef could ask for. A few important highlights include wide-plank pine floors an updated, eat-in kitchen outfitted with Living Quarters cabinetry, newer appliances and a bank of windows behind the sink looking out to the creek. The house, which may have been a settler’s cottage originally, has grown several times over its 250+ year history to become a very comfortable residence brimming with character in its moldings and millwork, fireplace, windows, doors and exposed beam ceilings. An arched walking bridge over the creek is the perfect vantage point to note the carefully laid stones that formalize the edges of the waterway, and appreciate Mother Nature in all seasons. Its 2.97 acres are a mix of terraced, hard-scaped outdoor spaces, including a in-ground pool and cabana, with outdoor shower, and carefully chosen perennials, flowering shrubs and mature trees that awaken each spring. The propertys’ gardens and grounds were featured on the New Hope Historical Society s annua l garden tour and also have been the site of numerous celebrations and a few weddings (hence The Vicarage property name.) The Vicarage, just outside the village center of charming Carversville, is situated above the Paunacussing Creek. The pleasures of a historical house are magnified when the home is in a one-of-a-kind setting.
