Property Description
Pear Tree Farm offers history, a prime location, charm, and serenity. Nestled in 4.5
acres on Furlong Road near Doylestown, this 1845 stucco over stone farmhouse is
adjacent to an exceptional three-bay English threshing barn with carriage house,
stone walled barnyard, and boxwood-lined garden rooms with magnificent 50’
trees. A published history of the farm is in the collecton of the Mercer and
Michener Museums.
The home has been updated while maintaining its quintessenal character that
includes original pumpkin pine and chestnut flooring, pie stairs, bluestone patos
and paths, and within a custom kitchen a grand summer kitchen fireplace with
wood burning stove. From a bank of 1950’s industrial kitchen windows, you look
out to a steel trellis of wisteria and trumpet vine offering light in the winter and
shade in the summer. Everywhere you look in this house, you will find evidence of
its 180-year-old history–historic door latches and knobs, bark covered log
basement supports, garret, stone-lined cistern with pump, and original glass in its
multi- paned windows. A fenced kitchen garden and original Sylvan pool
compliment the grounds.
There is great beauty on the property, and the wildlife is abundant. Awake to a
chorus of birds welcoming the morning light, while owls deep in the woods
summon the darkness. Opportunities abound–whether it is renovating the barn
complex, expanding the farmhouse, or building a new home in the back of this
picturesque, wooded property.
