Understated and elegant, 20 Parkside Drive in Langhorne is located in the quiet enclave known as Luxembourg Estates. Adjacent to Lake Luxembourg and Core Creek Park, the home is minutes away from historic Newtown and all that it has to offer. Designed and built by the reknowned Bruce Lesser, often deemed "The Keeper of the Craft", the home is built in a classic Williamsburg style, showcasing period-detailed architectural Millwork and Trim, including Dental Moldings, Wainscoting and Exposed Beams.
Enter the home via the Brick Walkway and Front Steps into a gracious, welcoming Center Hall with large windows, high ceilings and an imposing Turned Staircase. There are hardwood floors throughout the Main level. Moving to the right, the Hall opens to the Light-Filled Living Room, with custom built-in Bookcases and interior shutters. Left of the entrance hall is the Formal Dining Room, which continues through to the kitchen. Back in the entry hall, the central hall goes past the basement entrance and powder room to the Large Kitchen and Family Room, which features exposed beams and a Brick Fireplace, spanning the rear of the home. The eat-in Kitchen features a custom backsplash with Mercer Tiles, upgraded appliances such as the Thermidor Refrigerator and Viking Gas Cooktop. Additionally, there are two ovens, a built-in Microwave and a large Island with seating. French Doors from both the Kitchen and Family Room open to the large rear deck with a new retractable awning. Stairs continue down to the formal gardens featuring perennials and flowering shrubs inside the fenced in portion of the yard. The rear of the property backs to woods and protected land that offers a high level of privacy and serenity. Brick walkways extend across the yard to the spacious Garden Shed. In addition to the Deck, there is a secluded rear brick porch with a door from the comfortable first floor Study. This room features a corner brick fireplace and beamed ceiling. The back Hallway continues past double Pantry Closets, entrance to the Kitchen and the oversized Laundry room. This hall also has access to the two-car garage with extensive shelving.
