About This Property

This magnificent brick colonial sits privately overlooking open space in the desirable community of The Woods at Northampton and accesses the excellent Council Rock School District. Enter the home through a frosted glass paneled doorway into the majestic 2-story entry featuring a beautiful turned oak staircase and charming crown molding, wainscoting and decorative pillars. Use the glass paneled French doors to enter the private and well-lit office. The entry hall opens to the living room offering a 3-bay window and architecturally interesting tray ceiling. It flows into the formal dining room through 2 pillars and has another tray ceiling, crown molding and wainscoting chair rail. The superb conservatory is sun-filled through 9 tall windows (7 palladian arched tops). This large room with a vaulted ceiling can meet many needs – home office, art studio, 2nd family room, conservatory, etc. The stunning kitchen is filled with everything you need – plenty of classic cherry wood cabinetry, an abundance of stylish granite counter top work space, stainless steel appliances, under cabinet lighting, ceramic tile backsplash and floor, 5-burner gas cook top, 2 built-in ovens and 1 built-in microwave, a large island breakfast bar/work space with additional storage, and a convenient desk with separate storage. There is also a handy butler's pantry with a sink across from a huge walk-in pantry. And don't miss the craft closet on your way to the big laundry room and the inside access to the 3 car garage. The kitchen flows into the big breakfast room with floor to ceiling windows and a doorway to the deck. The heart of this home is the stunning family room. It's highlighted by the dramatic floor to ceiling stonework around and above the gas fireplace. Five more palladian arched windows fill this wonderful room with light. And it has another oak staircase leading to the 2nd floor. The main bedroom suite has a vaulted sitting room and plenty of space in the sleeping area. There is a pillared entry to the large and well organized walk-in closet. The main bath has two big, separate vanities and sinks, a spacious shower stall with ceramic tile walls, a jetted soaking tub and lots of light pouring through the private arched window to the vaulted ceiling. There are 4 more bedrooms on the 2nd floor. The rear bedroom has a private bath. The other 3 bedrooms in front access the big hall bath with a 2-sink vanity. All these bedrooms feature generous closet space. Another stairway in the family room leads you down to the finished lower level. Several windows fill this space with light. There is a game area with pool and foosball tables (included), a wet bar area with pellet stove and a TV viewing area. A door leads you to the big gym (equipment is included). And there is still a huge storage room. You will enjoy sitting on the private rear deck admiring the open space view and back yard of this 1 acre property. It has maintenance-free decking and posts and rails, lots of lighting and a stairway down to a lovely patio with interesting paver blocks and accent walls and fencing.
