2006 Silverwood Dr, Newtown PA 18940

Settled comfortably back on a large, beautifully manicured lawn with flowering trees and perennials in abundance, this property must be seen to be fully appreciated. Located in one of the prime areas of Bucks County, within a few minutes of Route 95 and easy access to the city, this home and property are replete with special touches and inviting amenities. With its stately brick front and circular portico with columns, the home is immediately intriguing. Upon entering the immaculate foyer—two stories tall, and boasting an elegant brass chandelier, carpeted oak stairs with brass carpet stays, and window set high over the doorway—one is instantly aware that this home has been lovingly cared for. The formal dining room and formal living room are located on either side of the entryway. Gleaming oak floors line the dining room and entry, while rich, new carpeting is in the living room. Each room has large windows with custom draperies that blend effortlessly with the custom wallpaper and crown moldings with wallpaper inlays. This unique design element is eye-catchingly attractive and designed by the homeowner. Creamy white paneled wainscoting is found in each room and down the hall as well. A custom painted ceiling in the dining room adds a touch of whimsy to the medallion and chandelier. The study is located adjacent to the living room, and offers the same elegance in window treatments, wallpaper, crown molding, and wainscoting as the previous two rooms—a perfect place to relax at the end of a busy day. And just off this retreat, the conservatory opens the width of the home. Lined on three walls with palladium windows, light streams through unabated. A soaring ceiling adds to the element of space and light. French doors open off the back of the room onto a patio and pool area. Around the back of the home, off the conservatory, the family room, breakfast room and kitchen create a large and inviting family space for comfortable living. A dark cherry floor sets the scene in the family room, where a gas fireplace with brick surround and white carved wooden surround and mantle and brick hearth is the focal point. Large boxed windows in the back wall overlook the pool and expansive rear yard. The ceiling again soars to the second level in the breakfast room, where a curved balcony overlooks from the second floor and a large window in the opposite wall lets in the view as well as light. The breakfast room flows seamlessly into the kitchen with upgraded light cherry cabinets—some with display glass—rose-flecked granite counters, lit by under-cabinet lighting, a large, square center island with storage and seating, a large double sink overlooking the rear yard and lit naturally by a large skylight overhead. This upgraded kitchen is eminently functional and features a Jenn Air four-burner gas cook top and GE Profile double wall oven. A butler’s pantry just off the kitchen with plenty of glass-fronted cabinets makes entertaining a breeze. Adjacent to this pantry is a laundry room that leads to the garage. A very special room awaits through French doors off the breakfast room. Known as the Palm Beach Room, this space is ideal for sipping morning coffee or an evening cocktail. Three walls of windows provide a serene view of the pool and patio area as well as allow in the daylight or moonshine. The second level with nine-foot ceilings, can be accessed either by the front stairway or one off the kitchen. Double doors provide entry to the master suite, complete with a large master bath with Jacuzzi, twin vanity sinks, separate shower and water closet; twin walk in closets; and a “retreat room” off the bedroom in which to read, watch television, or just relax. New carpeting and custom draperies add the finishing touches. A guest bedroom is located down the hall, with a large closet and full bathroom. At the end of this hallway is a large in-law or au pair suite. A large living room is adjacent to the bedroom area, separated by French doors. Comfortably cozy, it contains a large window with window seat, flanked by built in shelving and cabinetry. A fourth bedroom/study/den is also located in the hallway. The walkout basement is unfinished; just waiting for its new owners to bring in their personality and unique individual touches. It has nine-foot ceilings and is so big (running under the entire house) that the options here are practically endless. In addition, it was built inside a bubble-like moisture barrier, creating a space that never feels even a hint of dampness. The Anthony and Sylvan in-ground pool with raised spa and waterfall is extremely inviting. The patio itself is 1500 square feet of EP Henry hardscaping on multiple levels, with two separate dining areas, and a permanent outdoor kitchen area set in stone and granite, which includes a grill, sink and cook top. Professional landscaping of ornamental grasses, evergreens, and flower beds provides a decorative and colorful zone of privacy, and the whole area is surrounded by a black, wrought iron fence.
