About this home
The Ultimate Doylestown Borough Modern Classic
Located in the heart of Doylestown Borough, this extraordinary 2020 rebuild stands in a class of its own. Taken down to the studs—preserving only the original basement and front façade—this home was masterfully reconstructed with exceptional craftsmanship, vision, and attention to detail. With nine variances secured to achieve its scale, layout, and amenities, this is a Borough property unlikely to ever be replicated. A charming front porch welcomes you inside, where a refined private study anchors the entry. wide-plank engineered hardwood flooring flows throughout the main level, and the home’s historic character is honored with the beautifully preserved and restored 1870s original staircase.
The first floor opens into a spectacular open-concept living space where the gourmet kitchen seamlessly connects to the dramatic cathedral-ceiling great room. The kitchen is anchored by an oversized granite island and features a farmhouse sink, Thermador six-burner gas range, premium appliances, custom cabinetry, a spacious walk-in pantry, dry bar with beverage center, powder room, and plantation shutters throughout the first floor. The adjoining great room is highlighted by a striking floor-to-ceiling masonry gas fireplace and expansive black-framed windows and doors that flood the space with natural light, creating an inviting environment designed for gathering and everyday living.
Designed for practical Borough living, the home also offers a rare second front entrance leading directly into a beautifully finished mudroom, along with a true first-floor laundry room and abundant storage throughout. The first-floor primary suite provides both privacy and convenience, featuring two large closets and a beautifully appointed spa-inspired bath. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms, a spacious hall bath, storage room, and large attic provide flexible space for family and guests.
Just beyond, a covered custom patio extends the home’s living space outdoors. An expanded terrace with a fully appointed outdoor kitchen and its own masonry fireplace creates the perfect setting for year-round entertaining and effortless indoor-outdoor living. Relax by the fire on the covered outdoor terrace overlooking the fenced yard. Additional features include a two-car garage with expanded storage space, a large storage area above the garage, and ample driveway parking for multiple vehicles.
All of this within walking distance to Doylestown’s acclaimed restaurants, boutiques, and cultural attractions, offering the charm of Borough living with the scale, openness, and modern amenities rarely found in town. A truly rare Borough offering—rebuilt beyond replication....
