What was once the Cottageville School is now a storybook historical residence in peaceful Solebury Township. Built in the late 1840s as a typical stone school house, the structure was converted to a residence in the early 20th century and since then has been getting better with age. After many improvements, it now offers a dramatic main living space with 12? exposed-beam ceiling and corner fireplace; a cook?s kitchen with soapstone countertops, undermount sink and stainless appliances; 2/3 bedrooms and 2.1 remodeled baths, including one with a slipperback soaking tub and the main suite bath with tile, oversized shower with seamless glass enclosure. A loft over the kitchen is a perfect reading nook or home office hideaway. A beautifully renovated lower level consisting of a large family room, solarium, laundry room, office, plenty of custom cedar closets expanded the living space. There is central air throughout. On just under an acre that backs to the Paunacussing Creek, this home is surrounded by lush mature landscaping and specimen trees, including a weeping cherry that puts on a show each spring. A custom barbecue island is ready for outdoor entertaining. Located in the coveted New Hope-Solebury School District; just 90 minutes from New York City and a few minutes from the charming historical village of Carversville.
