The...873 Ferry Road is a unique property, and we’re looking for its next owner. The good:
Incredible views of Doylestown, rolling farms and hillsides
2400 sq ft of existing living space
Under 10 minute drive to Doylestown Borough center, the hospital, 611 & 202
Excellent Central Bucks School District (Doyle Elementary, Lenape Middle, CBHS West)
<9 year old septic system (sized for 3 BRs), 8+ GPM operating well system, power connections
New vinyl windows throughout the most of the house, installed in 2018
The bad: The house needs a thorough renovation
The existing roof is shot, and needs a replacement. The trusses should be fine. The fireplace & chimney need replacing
Both bathrooms need replacing
Kitchen is operational, but old
A major MEP overhaul is recommended, ranging from electrical and lighting to plumbing systems and a new HVAC
The property is a great canvas for the next owner. We started with the same canvas at 891 Ferry Road, developing an excellent property. For primary home buyers:
Seller has completed both existing renovation floorplans, and new construction floorplans
Seller can work with buyer on introducing trades and general contracting/permitting
Seller can provide owner financing for well qualified applicants
For builders/investors:
Seller will consider co-development opportunities where we bring land, building partner brings construction capital and expertise
Seller can provide all the pre-permit work, Township discussions, and permit-ready architectural work
The property is priced at fair market value for a 1+ acre lot with existing utilities. Thanks for taking a look, and we look forward to working with you to bring this unique property into its future glory.
