About this home
Welcome to the Kirkbride-Palmer Farmhouse at Palmer Farm- a spacious historic property in the heart of the beautifully landscaped Palmer Farm Village- one of Yardley's most desirable communities. The brick portion of the farmhouse was built circa 1753, using bricks that had been brought across the Atlantic as ballast in ships that returned with goods from America, and then the stone portion was added around 1810. In 1987, the 47 acre farm was converted into Palmer Farm Village, an HOA community, with the farmhouse buildings preserved and restored as the centerpiece. In 1992, the home was added to the National Register of Historic Places. Originally, the farmhouse was two separate dwellings, but when the current owners purchased the property, they consolidated 559 Palmer Farm Drive and 561 Palmer Farm Drive to create a more spacious home.
This property is unusual in that it provides the best of historic living, but the benefits of living in one of the few HOA communities where most exterior maintenance is meticulously cared for by the association. The streets, driveways, porches, and paths are cleared of snow in the winter, landscaping of both common areas and on individual lots is included, and exterior painting is taken care of. Residents enjoy amenities like the club house, fitness center, walking and bike trails, playground, tennis and basketball courts, sauna, and pool. The farmhouse itself sits in the most picturesque setting within the community, distanced from the other homes up a private drive, nestled amongst mature flowering trees and overlooking a pond. The home exhibits the additive quality indicative of early Bucks County architecture, with its Flemish and English brickwork on the original portion of the house, and subsequent stone and shed kitchen additions. Residents enjoy both front and rear porches, as well as a side brick patio and kitchen garden area, with plenty of space to enjoy the peaceful views. The property also includes a very large barn to the rear of the home, with massive upper and lower garages that EACH can accommodate 2+ cars, with a generous amount of room for storage or a workshop.
As you enter the home through the rear porch, you are welcomed into a very large living room area with an original fireplace, which also connects to the front porch of the home and is bathed in natural light. This leads into the original portion of the home, which includes a sitting room at the front and a dining room in the middle, each with their own fireplace and original millwork. The kitchen is at the rear of the home, with plenty of storage and counter space, as well as a large island with seating. The kitchen provides exterior access to the side patio overlooking the pond as well as the kitchen garden area. A powder room is also conveniently tucked away just off of the kitchen. On the opposite side of the home is a large bedroom (with its own exterior entrance), as well as a full bathroom- perfect for same-floor living or for use as an in-law suite. On the second floor, the owner's suite includes a bedroom, dressing room area, built-in closets and full bathroom. There are an additional 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms on this floor, with beautiful random-width heart pine flooring, as well as a laundry room. Since this home was consolidated into one from two dwellings, it has an usual amount of space for such a historic home, allowing residents to enjoy the historic character without compromising on modern conveniences. The two portions of the home also have their own staircases, basements, and attic spaces.
Palmer Farm Village is in an unbeatable location- close to shopping and dining, Core Creek & Tyler State Parks, historic Yardley and Newtown, and Wegmans, and it enjoys easy access to I-95, Route 1, and the PA Turnpike, for those commuting to Philadelphia, Princeton or NYC. Come see the best of low-maintenance, historic living in beautiful Bucks County!...
