Set in the heart of Solebury, Bucks County, Elk Creek Farm is nestled amongst rolling pastures and lush woodlands with panoramic views. This exquisite estate with nearly 200 acres steeped in history is part of the original William Penn land grant. It comprises three homes, a charming caretaker apartment, and additional employee quarters. This working, Black Angus breeding farm is supported with exceptional amenities including paved roadways, a restored bank barn, a hay barn, an oversized equipment barn with an office and bathroom, greenhouses plus four additional Morton barns.

As you make your way over the bridge and past the glistening pond, you are greeted by an expansive front lawn and a circular driveway that delivers you to an exquisite stone manor. The house epitomizes refined elegance for someone who demands grand-scale living with an unpretentious, relaxed country setting. Stone patios and terraces surround the home and a Pennsylvania bluestone walkway leads to a heated, in-ground swimming pool with a pool house where one can delight in the spectacular views of rolling hills and pastures, ponds and mountains. It is a short walk to the Victorian Guest Home which was sited to take full advantage of the 360 degree views.
