Property Description
Step back in time while enjoying modern comforts in this stunning Langhorne Manor colonial, set on nearly an acre of serene grounds. The nearly 100-year-old home, once the mayor's mansion, retains its historical charm with many original features.
The cobblestone-lined circular driveway welcomes you to lush grounds, featuring a majestic 150-year-old oak and a graceful 100-year-old Japanese maple. Mature landscaping and a thoughtfully planted berm offer privacy, while the rock-lined drainage swale is a nod to the borough's heritage. A newer roof, gutters, downspouts, and metal roofing ensure the home's sound structure and timeless curb appeal. Original windows and doors, many newly reglazed, add to the home's authentic character.
Enter through a charming back porch with vintage swing windows or the front vestibule adorned with original leaded glass. Inside, discover an original light fixture in the foyer, plus original hardwood floors, soaring 9-to-10-foot ceilings, and elegant colonial moldings throughout. The living room is inviting, with a wood-burning fireplace and period-inspired sconces, leading to a sun-drenched, heated sunroom with slate floors — perfect for year-round relaxation.
The dining room impresses with its original ceiling lamp and a working bell call system that adds a whimsical touch of history. Beyond, a spacious butler's pantry offers vintage charm and access to the back staircase, while the updated kitchen features granite countertops, wainscoting, dimmable pendant lighting, and a glass cooktop range.
Upstairs, the primary suite and two additional bedrooms feature thoughtful touches like closet lighting and original whole-house light controls and call bells. The primary bath offers travertine and glass tile, a river stone shower floor, granite surrounds, and ceramic tile accents. A surprising third floor adds versatility with a large sitting area, two more bedrooms, and a full bath complete with a clawfoot tub.
Storage is ample with a large basement and a detached two-car garage featuring four storage areas and three additional entrances. Historic elements remain in the garage, which includes separate electric service and is ideal for a workshop.
Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a piece of Langhorne Manor's history. Experience the comfort and sophistication of this meticulously maintained, extraordinary home for yourself!
