Love Historic Homes? Welcome to the Henry Hartzell House – A Bucks County Treasure. Step into a piece of Pennsylvania’s living history with the Henry Hartzell House, one of Bucks County’s earliest surviving stone homes, meticulously documented by the Heritage Conservancy. Built in 1810, this extraordinary residence captures the charm of early American craftsmanship, with architectural influences dating back to the 19th century. Located along Bethlehem Pike, once the Native American Minsi Trail and later the colonial King’s Road of the 1760s, this home is steeped in history. The road once linked Philadelphia to Bethlehem, placing this house right in the heart of Pennsylvania’s storied past. A beautiful rebuilt front portico, colorful landscaping, and a restored entry hallway, complete with new tilework and updated front and rear exterior doors, welcome you home! Inside, the living room is warm and inviting, boasting two original corner fireplaces (one with a new wood-burning stove insert, chimney liner) and new ceiling fan offering a cozy nod to the home’s heritage. Throughout the home, you'll find original and thoughtfully restored features, including wood ceiling beams, deep windowsills, original wood flooring, built-in stairway handrail, extra-wide plank ceilings on the second floor, crafted from attic boards, crown molding that has endured through generations. The spacious country kitchen features wood cabinetry, new stainless-steel refrigerator and electric smooth-top oven, and a charming walk-in decorative fireplace with wood shutters. A cozy breakfast area and an adjacent updated full bathroom make this space perfect for daily living and entertaining. Upstairs, the primary bedroom that has been converted from two original rooms is bright and expansive. Two additional nicely sized bedrooms offer flexibility, and the fully remodeled second-floor stunning full bathroom impresses with ceramic tile flooring, tub surround with rainfall showerhead and smart digital temperature controls, beautiful wood vanity and new plumbing. Additional highlights include a walk-up floored attic—ideal for storage or a future bonus space, full basement with gas heat, newer hot water heater, and well pressure tank. New trex deck with maintenance-free railings, perfect for your summer gatherings. New split-rail wood fencing encloses just over one acre of picturesque grounds, with a scenic wooded backdrop. To complete the property, a two-story detached garage features a new roof, expanded stone driveway, heat, electric, and an upper loft, making it the perfect workshop, studio, or hobby space. This is more than just a home—it’s a timeless retreat, lovingly preserved and thoughtfully updated for modern living. The Henry Hartzell House is ready for the next chapter in its story. Will you be the one to write it?
