71 Sweetbriar Rd, PERKASIE

Privately located along picturesque Sweetbriar Road lies Drumbore Farm, a remarkable historic estate that blends the elegance of the past with the comforts of the present. With origins tracing back to the late 1600s — on land once granted to William Penn — this property at 71 Sweetbriar Road is a true time capsule, carefully preserved and thoughtfully updated over the course of more than 300 years.

Set on 10 serene acres and enrolled in Pennsylvania’s Act 319 program, Drumbore Farm offers not only breathtaking views but also a significant tax incentive for those committed to stewarding this exceptional land.

Upon arrival, guests are greeted by a striking historic bank barn that reflects both authenticity and modern functionality. Original stanchions and horse stalls remain intact, preserving the barn’s agricultural heritage, while recent enhancements — including a new roof and exposed interior stonework — add to its lasting charm. The first floor includes garage bays for four vehicles, a greenhouse, and generous storage space. The second floor unfolds into a grand central hall ideal for entertaining, flanked by a kitchenette, dining area, and a comfortable lounge. Tucked into a rear corner is a temperature-controlled studio space, currently used for recording and painting.

The main residence features four well-appointed bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite on the first floor with a private bath, wood burning fireplace, beamed cathedral ceiling, and in-suite laundry. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath are located on the second level, while the third floor is home to the whimsical “Princess Suite” — a cherished and character-filled retreat. A third full bath is conveniently located on the main floor. Radiant floor heating in two of the bathrooms and throughout several rooms enhances comfort year-round. Every corner of the home has been completed with thoughtful intention and profound dedication to creating a warm, inviting space.

In 2018, a meticulously designed chef’s kitchen was added to the home. One side of the kitchen features custom, floor-to-ceiling cabinetry with internal lighting, natural wood flooring, and reclaimed ceiling beams — creating a rustic yet refined atmosphere. The kitchen is completed with a large, soapstone topped custom center island abound with thoughtful storage, a magnificent Wolf stove and double oven, and open counter space overlooking the scenic yard. This culinary space offers both beauty and functionality, making it the heart of the home.

Outdoors, the grounds are a paradise for garden enthusiasts. A lush landscape of vegetable, fruit, and flower gardens flourishes behind the house, while a tranquil pond invites quiet reflection. Tucked alongside the barn, under the shade of a grand maple tree is a bluestone patio, complete with comfortable seating and a custom pizza oven. Every corner of the property is designed to inspire a connection with nature and heritage.

Located within the serene embrace of Bedminster Township, this distinguished estate offers a rare sanctuary of privacy without the sacrifice of accessibility. Drumbore Farm lies among the vibrant communities of Bucks County and is within comfortable reach to Philadelphia, New Jersey, and New York.

Featured in Bucks County Magazine and on several house and garden tours, Drumbore Farm is not merely a home — it is a rare opportunity to own a living piece of history. Don’t miss your chance to carry this legacy into the future.
