Welcome home to one of New Hope best kept secrets..."Bramingham Estate", located in historic Bucks County, PA. Set on almost 11 acres, this beautifully renovated property consists of multiple structures totaling over 8,000 sq. ft. of living space that offers an uncompromising level of quality, custom finishes and attention to detail with inground pool, lighted tennis court, and bucolic pond. A long, private driveway leads to the exquisite stone manor's main entrance. The grand foyer provides a spacious greeting area and is flanked on the right by a presidential salon...a formal living room with portraits of American presidents! This unique room has plenty of natural light and also features two crystal chandeliers, a massive antique fireplace, a small wet bar, and built-in cabinetry. To the left of the foyer, on the other side of this magnificent home is the library, gourmet chef’s kitchen and a stunning conservatory with a 2nd wet bar, custom cabinetry, and coffee station. (This space could easily be used as a dining area as well.) The working chef's kitchen features a Wolf range with 2 ovens, Sub-zero appliances, a 3rd steam oven, large working island and a gorgeous La Cornue wall mounted rotisserie. Skylights and windows make this kitchen bright and inviting and the wall of display cabinetry is the perfect setting for beautiful china. The library is a warm and inviting main floor study that can serve as a media room, home office or simply a peaceful respite to relax with a book. A beautifully constructed curving staircase leads up to the primary suite with a large bath and 2 walk-in closets, as well as a circular staircase up to a loft retreat. A second bedroom and 2 additional rooms, currently being used as an office and study, round out the upper level of this home. The lower level boasts a wine cellar, sauna, full bath, laundry and a spacious family and entertainment area with murphy bed opening to the outside fountain and gardens and 3+ car garage with finished space above. This impressive stone manor house sits prominently in the foreground adjacent to a charming 5 bedroom, 4 bathroom stone guest house your guests will never want to leave. Renovated to have a more casual rustic feel, the main level has fieldstone fireplace, new kitchen with induction range, and 1st floor bedroom and full bath. The 2nd floor has 2 En-Suite bedrooms and there are 2 additional bedrooms and a shared bath on the 3rd floor—plenty of room for in-laws, visiting family and friends, au pairs, or as a true home office. Both the main residence and the guest house look out to expansive lawns and spectacular views. The grounds have been well-maintained with specimen plantings, brick and stone walks, sculptures, large planters, fountain and stone ruins for al fresco dining. Brick paths lead to the spa-like concrete pool and a large patio space that encourages outdoor entertaining. The pool house contains his and her changing rooms, showers, bathrooms, a full caretaker or au pair suite and a small caretaker’s kitchen. Bramingham Estate offers privacy and the evolution and design of structures and natural settings that grow organically from each other while still being close to great shopping and delicious restaurants in nearby Peddler’s Village and downtown New Hope, in the award winning New Hope-Solebury School District. The property is protected by a state-of-the-art security system.
