Property Description
Historically, the most prestigious BUCKS COUNTY STONE manor homes were positioned on the high point of their acreage to overlook their fields and pastures, and with long driveways leading past bank barns and farm buildings. Such bucolic settings are rare now... but amongst them, Windwood, a gracious 1800's GENTLEMAN'S FARM, stands out as an example of the very best. The approach is down a quarter mile LONG DRIVE, through mature woodland, to the center of 26 acres, nicely removed from a quiet country road. Windwood has a notable legacy, rich with tales of prominent visitors. Once known as the Guggenheim Estate, this gentleman's farm embodies the quintessential details of Pennsylvania architecture, in a remarkable and private setting, above the DELAWARE RIVER from high atop Chestnut Ridge. The 1800's stone home has been enhanced with additions blending modern convenience with its history. Wide plank floors span both levels of the home. FIVE FIREPLACES, mullioned glass windows with deep windowsills, a central summer kitchen with BUTTERFLY STAIRCASE, exemplary woodwork and PERIOD HARDWARE attest to the 18th century character and timeless dignity. The great room/kitchen addition boasts raised panel custom cabinets, a fireplace with raised panel cabinet surround and a wall of glass that opens to a bluestone terrace overlooking pool and meadow. Completing the first floor is an elegant living and dining room and charming central den, each with a fireplace. On the second floor, an open and airy master suite and large bath will soothe and pamper. The two additional bedrooms, one with fireplace, each with a bath, are perfect for guests and family. A whole house generator lets you relax and invite a crowd for summer weekends and every holiday. Outside areas for intimate or formal gatherings abound. Patios with rock walls, a newly redone pool, and a hidden grotto amidst barn wall ruins, provide areas, at day's end, for family and friends to gather. Weddings and other special occasions have always graced these outside venues, with memories that befit and embellish the history of the GUGGENHEIM'S SUMMER RESIDENCE. Adding to the property's total ambience, the IN-GROUND POOL is surrounded by gardens, field and forest. The views from porch and patio provide an ever-changing panorama of verdant woodlands that provide seclusion in summer and long-distance winter views. Finally, in keeping with the role of a bespoke Bucks County Estate, there is a CARETAKER'S COTTAGE, garaging for three cars and a GUEST STUDIO above. Windwood is a rare and elegant estate from a bygone era, in an exquisite and secluded Bucks County setting. Every aspect, both inside and out, is presented artfully and joyfully. This private paradise loses touch with the world just over the hills yet is still within easy driving distance to the magic of Bucks County dining, antiquing and recreation.
