About this house rental
Homestead is a very special home. It was built as the vision of an entertaining space for my GrandMa as her family started to grow. My GPa, Frankie, was a visionary with amazing ideas.
The house as you approach is very unassuming. It is a traditional Cape Cod with a 2 car garage in a regular neighborhood of similar homes. As you walk up the front stairs and glance through the entry way windows you will see that there is more than meets the eye.
Open the front door and enjoy the first glimpse of the brick floors, the exposed barn rafters, the eclectic antiques. Walk in a bit further and the grand piano and fire place come into view as well at the 14 foot ceilings and large entertaining kitchen.
Now note, GPa Frankie was a guy that always 'Knew a Guy' for most things he needed. So when he needed bricks for his floors in his home, he 'knew a guy' that happened to be taking bricks out of the streets of Manhattan. So all the brick under your feet as you walk through the Great Room are hand made bricks from who knows when and lived their lives destroying car suspensions before coming to our home. GPa Frankie was originally from Vermont so he often brought down shipments of the gorgeous red blue and green flag stone to sell to local Perkasie folk. So when he need a structure for his home, he 'knew a guy' that happened to be taking down a barn in Vermont near his home town of St. Johnsbury. All the stone in the house was from my GPa's quarry. We supplied most of the building stone to this area from Warminster to Lehighton.
Homestead is TRULY an unique home built to entertain you and your family and friends.
To your left are the barn doors which once led to the pool but this is now our temporary doggie fenced area.
To your right is the 5' 4" Grand Piano tuned and ready for your skills (PLEASE no banging by new young pianists) Next to the piano is a pup friendly West Elm settee where you can cozy up in front of the fire. The fire is actually a pellet stove. Just turn on the remote and you have a nice cozy flame and heat in 5 minutes.
IF you need to work, you have a standing height desk with leather bar stool, external hdmi monitor and a great view of the back yard.
The kitchen is equipped with all your standard gadgets and some that you may not recognize. There is 25 cu. ft. of space in the refrigerator, a super quiet Bosch dishwasher, a Jenn Air convection oven and MY FAVORITE a 36 inch Jenn Air Induction cooktop. If you have not used induction before BE CAREFUL! It has the control of gas with the power of electric. I broke it because I let a pot go dry on 'Boost'. Please do not do the same. (NOTE: I am FAR from a chef! ;-) ) There is not a microwave as the stove can do it faster!
If you leave the Great Room area and head into the original house from the music room, you enter into our 'Library'. There are plenty of books and games to keep you amused for a while. The game table has chess and checker pieces on the wall above and the ladies 'cat attacked' wing chairs are comfy enough to sit and play or read for a while. PLEASE do not take the books.
Browse the walls in this area and see some of our family history.
As you proceed further into the the original home the Master Suite is to your left (currently closed for remodelling). Proceed to the TV viewing with our gas fireplace and mid century modern decor.
To your left are the stairs to the bedrooms and a bathroom with VERY relaxing shower.
Both bedrooms are equipped with smart perimeter lighting as well as central lighting, a ceiling fan, independently controlled heat and AC and more closet space that you could possibly want. The beds are super comfy kings!. The mattresses are different: Blue more soft and cozy (my favorite), Green more firm but memory foamy.
The bath on this level has custom made cabinetry from left over wood from the barn in the Great Room. The pebble shower floor feels soooo good on your feet as you pick pebbles that fit just right into that sore spot in your foot. The bamboo shower bench is easily moved for your comfort to sit and relax in the never ending hot water. (yes it takes a while to get there but it never stops once it does... unless you burn through all our propane. :-( )
We are sure you will enjoy your stay at Homestead. It is truly a unique and special home. MY home that I am sharing with you as I travel often for work. I grew up here with the most amazing Grandparents ever!!!

We had an amazing stay at Bryan’s place! The home is beautiful and unique, perfect for a cozy weekend getaway. We spent most of our trip sitting by the wood burning stove. Bryan was so easy to get in touch with. Can’t wait to stay here again!
