Property Description
1877, Rose Lawn is one of the most prestigious homes in Forest Grove Village. This
beautiful 3-story house provides the benefits and peace of mind of new
construction and it is ready to move into. Lovingly restored by Nick Lykon who has
completed other outstanding renovations of vintage homes, his vision was to take the
architectural characteristics and ambiance of the house and blend it with modern
amenities and luxuries to create a home of exceptional beauty and style. Many of the
original period details remain and were matched where needed by custom millwork of
outstanding craftsmanship. What was created is a seamless blend of the elegant
architectural features that were part of this distinguished home when built plus new
infrastructure parts including the roof, siding, plumbing, electric, HVAC, fire protection,
and septic system. Imagine holidays in this gorgeous house! Highlights include the
original staircase that gracefully winds up to the third floor, the intricate millwork, original
floors, new Marvin Elevate windows and doors (there is one remaining original window
with a story), rebuilt barn and garage/workshop. From the foyer you enter a living room
with a two-sided fireplace that is also enjoyed in the family room. Huge windows are
everywhere and let in natural light and the views and beauty of changing seasons. The
family room spans the width of the house and is shared by a formal dining room at the
other end. In the middle is an incredible, original 8' pocket door. The three large main
floor rooms give you the choice of how to use them for your lifestyle. A large eat-in
kitchen with wonderful Quartz counterspace and lots of custom cabinetry is a chef's
delight that combines convenience, function, and beauty. Plenty of space to hang out
and to prepare food for a small or large gathering. A door opens to the rear and the
covered exterior entrance to the basement. Two staircases – the grand one in the foyer
and a back one from the kitchen – take you upstairs to the first of two levels of
bedrooms and bathrooms. The two upper floors have six bedrooms and 3 full
bathrooms. The spacious primary suite has a propane fireplace, bathroom large walk-in
shower, and there is also a room sized closet. There are two other bedrooms and a
shared bathroom on this level that includes a cast iron tub next to second floor laundry.
The third floor has three more bedrooms; 3 rd floor laundry and a bathroom. The rebuilt 2-
level barn is an extraordinary opportunity for use. The large space has three huge
chandeliers that set the stage for your personal needs and pleasure and/or for a
business opportunity. It could be the quintessential event and party space, a showplace
for a car collection or any of many zonings potential uses. The lower level was built to
be completed for farm animals, equipment or your car collection whatever you want or
need. The 4.7 acres give you control of designing your outdoor amenities. Or, you can
even rent part of the land to a farmer. And, there is a possibility to subdivide the land
and build a second home. Rose Lawn is not an ordinary residence or property. It has
grace, size, a historic provenance, a great location and unquestionable beauty. You can
live in the central part of Bucks County and enjoy its amenities. Ideally located near
Doylestown, New Hope, and Newtown that have shops, boutiques, restaurants, a movie
theater, live performance venues, a train station and parks. This special property has it
all…welcome home!
