73 HILLYER LN Newtown, PA 18940

Cradled by a cul-de-sac in a wonderfully secluded location within The Enclave at Upper Makefield a desirable 55+ community-- this 3 bedroom, 4 bath Bucknell end-unit is a showcase of meticulous design, exquisite finishes, and unexpected details. The one word that comes to mind is stunning. Upgraded hardwood flooring and custom window treatments grace all the main and upper levels. Most rooms have architectural details, like crown molding and wainscoting. Many rooms also have exquisite light fixtures, recessed lighting, and other hidden lighting accents, like the soft lighting under the crown molding in the living room. There are other delightful surprises, like the grass cloth accent wall in the primary bedroom, the coffered ceiling in the living room, and the shiplap adorning both the ceiling of the Palm Beach sunroom and the built-in desk wall in the finished walk-out lower level. The home is filled with windows and light. The foyer leads to an elegant bumped-out dining room adorned with wainscoting, crown molding and custom Plantation shutters. Transom windowed French doors lead to an office with a custom built-in desk, shelving framed by cabinetry, and more Plantation shutters. Once beyond the dining room, the floor plan flows from kitchen to great room to sunroom. The upgraded kitchen cabinetry is enhanced by tumbled marble backsplash and granite counters, undercabinet lighting, a bar area designed with wine storage, a wine fridge and expanded upgraded built-ins with extra lighting, a separate pantry, and a large quartz-countered island with lower cabinets. A suite of stainless-steel Kitchen Aid appliances includes a refrigerator, dishwasher, 5- burner stove-top with overhead vent fan exhaust, microwave oven, combination conventional/convection oven, and warming drawer. The great room has a coffered ceiling, a fireplace with a stone and rustic wood mantle, and custom dressed windows. Transom windows frame the entryway to the Palm Beach sunroom with its Hunter Douglas automated shades, slider to the expanded Trex deck, and view of the serene greenspace that envelops the community. The spacious main floor primary bedroom has two custom closets (one is a walk-in), a tray ceiling, crown molding, and an ensuite bathroom with two sinks, fully tiled shower, a granite countered vanity and built-in cabinetry. The main level laundry room has a utility sink and upper cabinetry. A powder room with a tiled accent wall, and two closets, one of which is a custom storage closet, complete the main level of this amazing home. An elegant turned staircase with iron balusters leads to a two-story foyer and a circular upper level bumped-out loft accented with lovely architectural columns. Upstairs is another primary bedroom suite, another spacious bedroom, and another full bathroom. The finished lower level consists of thoughtfully designed living space (approx 2000 sq ft) as well as efficient storage space. The main gathering space has a built-in Waterfall Edge bar with a quartz countertop, two small refrigerators, and ample room to relax and entertain. Inset in a shiplap-adorned wall is an electric fireplace. The opposite wall has built-in desk space and cabinetry. The large space opens to another room that leads to a walkout stairway. The fourth full bathroom, two utility rooms (with built-in storage shelving), two closets, one built for seasonal clothing storage, complete the lower level.
With its four-zoned hybrid fuel HVAC system, a 75-gallon hot water heater, a central vacuum system, an inground sprinkler system, and a whole house Generac generator, this exquisite home is a winner by every measure.
