Nestled amidst the serene beauty of Tinicum Township on one of its most coveted country lanes awaits a timeless treasure. “Tinicum Thyme” is a c.1870 stone farmhouse exuding rustic charm and offering endless potential. Embraced by 9.45 conserved acres of mature landscaping and woods, this enchanting property is a secluded retreat close to the amenities of modern life. Historic details abound. The charming covered front porch opens to the large living room showcasing the high ceiling with exposed beams, original walk-in fireplace, random width floors, deep set windowsills, and Bible cabinet. Butterfly pie stairs lead upstairs to the main bedroom with half bath, den, and laundry room each with original wood floors. Knotty pine adorns the walls of the mid-century addition both downstairs and up, adding a warm touch reminiscent of the Adirondacks. The spacious and bright kitchen with cozy breakfast nook looks out to the verdant landscape framed by large windows. The dining room or den with hardwood floor, fireplace, and built-ins invites cozy gatherings and contemplative moments alike. The second bedroom upstairs offers an en suite with new sink and toilet, and a tub. South-facing, the family room with vaulted ceiling and exposed beams is bright with large windows and glass slider opening to the flagstone patio, a passive solar addition to the house. A new metal roof adorns it and the kitchen. An automatic whole-house generator adds to the home’s efficiency. Outdoors lies a landscape of natural splendor, where a meandering creek traces the north boundary line, inviting picnics by its tranquil banks. Towering pines stand sentinel while flowering trees, rhododendron, hellebore beds and boxwood hedges infuse the grounds with seasonal beauty. Additional accommodations await within the barn, where a 1-bedroom apartment offers 780sf of comfort and convenience, complemented by finished, unheated studio space and storage areas. Meanwhile, the separate studio cottage offers an open layout with kitchenet, full bathroom and a deck overlooking the wooded expanse. These two outbuildings share an automatic generator and a septic system. A meeting house style 2-bay garage and two garden sheds complete the picture. Sequestered atop a gentle rise, “Tinicum Thyme” offers a haven of tranquility. Whether as rustic weekend getaway or as a canvas for redesign and modernization, this timeless retreat in Bucks County beckons with the promise of endless possibilities and boundless potential. 90 min from NYC, 75 min from Philadelphia, 30 min from Lehigh Valley.
