A truly exceptional offering in the heart of Central Bucks County, Yerkes Farm presents a rare opportunity to own 90 acres of historic farmland, distinguished architecture, and extraordinary natural beauty. Steeped in more than two centuries of agricultural history, this remarkable Buckingham Township property encompasses two tax parcels, including an approximately 10-acre homesite with the historic residence, bank barn, and detached garage. The homesite is not under conservancy and offers potential for subdivision, while the expansive preserved acreage remains eligible for continued agricultural use. Low property taxes further distinguish this exceptional offering. At the heart of the property is an early 19th-century stone farmhouse rich with original character and enduring craftsmanship. A gracious traditional floor plan features formal living and dining rooms, while the eat-in kitchen is anchored by a dramatic stone walk-in fireplace. Upstairs, three bedrooms and a full bath retain the warmth and intimacy of the historic home. Pumpkin pine floors, deep window sills, vintage hardware, and three fireplaces lend an unmistakable sense of authenticity and timeless charm. A beautifully integrated two-story addition expands the home while complementing its historic architecture, offering a generous family room with a wood-burning fireplace and built-in bookshelves, a dedicated laundry room, and a fourth bedroom with ensuite bath. Exposed stone, rich wood paneling, and carefully preserved period materials create a seamless connection between old and new. A spacious screened porch captures sweeping views across the surrounding farmland and provides an idyllic setting for morning coffee, leisurely afternoons, or memorable gatherings overlooking the landscape. The property's iconic red bank barn, spanning more than 4,000 square feet, is an impressive architectural centerpiece. Its distinctive open forebay, supported by tapered concrete columns, reflects the property's agricultural heritage, while the expansive second level, historically used for hay and farm equipment, offers exceptional flexibility for storage, entertaining, or a variety of future uses. A detached two-car garage and mature specimen trees further enhance the grounds. With its combination of historic architecture, expansive open land, a private 5-acre homesite, subdivision potential off of the 10-acre homesite parcel, and low taxes, Yerkes Farm is a property of remarkable scale and distinction. Conveniently located near Doylestown, New Hope, and Newtown, this extraordinary estate offers a rare opportunity to become the steward of one of Buckingham Township's enduring landmarks.
