Property Description
In the midst of the River Hamlet of Riegelsville, PA, sits one of the more iconoclastic stone mansions in Bucks County. Graystone Manor, built in the late 1890's, captures all of the imagination, strength and power of late 19th century Americana. This spectacular home, that is located along what was known as "Millionaires Row," boasts 7 bedrooms and 5 1/2 baths. The 6,000 square foot structure incorporates some of the most spectacular and detailed millwork of its time and was meant to be a showplace to flaunt its Edwardian design. Grand rooms, flanked by grand wide staircases, porte-cochere and porches... All were created to illustrate the craftsmanship of the times and the strength of a true dynasty. The impeccable grounds are enhanced by the stunning iron craftsmanship and intricate gate created by respected landscape architect Carter Van Dyke. The beautiful gardens accentuate the pool setting and the architectural follies positioned throughout the grounds. A guest cottage is desirable for , weekend guests or an au pair. The theater can accommodate an intimate gathering or a large festive party to celebrate the Super Bowl or the Oscars. Graystone Manor is an important and proper Estate home that was built by craftsmen whose skill sets are long gone. However, here is an opportunity for individuals to obtain a home that will not only meet their family needs, but to create a romantic journey as they move from room to room and live vicariously the golden age of America.
