127 bavington road

Tucked away at the end of a no outlet road, perched on top of a ridge among mature trees overlooking the Perkiomen Creek, is a custom one of a kind A frame. What started life as a small hunting cabin built in 1930, was transformed in 2004 into the beautiful home you see today. As you pull up the hill on the recently paved driveway, the privacy and uniqueness of this property becomes apparent. Cresting the hill, the cedar sided A-frame with oversized 2-car detached garage and large circular parking area come into view. Upon closer inspection, you catch a glimpse of the spectacular view of rolling topography in the distance. The eye is naturally drawn to the wrap around deck for a better vantage point of the panoramic vista. As you approach, daydreaming of evenings under the stars in the hot tub positioned at cliff’s edge, just off the deck, the uniqueness of this setting begins to sink in. Look up into the tree to the left of the deck just above eye level and you might catch a glimpse of a red tailed hawk nest. Look to your right and Spring Mountain ski area is staring back at you. Directly ahead is the sight of the Philadelphia Folk Fest. Look down for views of the Perkiomen creek and trail system. Picture hiking down the hill and all the activities that the creek life offers including fishing, swimming and snacks creekside with your favorite people. Head into the front door, look to the right and you are greeted by soaring ceilings, reclaimed barn wood mill work, a mud room area with side entry, a cozy office and a den/study just beyond the office. To the left is a large, open kitchen with an abundance of natural wood shaker cabinets, white appliances and ceiling fan. The kitchen flows into an open dining area with ornamental light fixture. Opposite the dining room is a large full bathroom with tub/shower combo, exposed wood beams and wood shiplap ceiling. Just beyond the dining room is a bar area with wine rack, recessed lighting and stool seating. Head back to the oversized living room/family room combination featuring exposed wood beams, custom ceiling mural, ceiling fan, brick & wood clad fireplace with electric Amish stove. The natural light pours in and views are one of kind through the slider and twin french doors leading to the deck. The massive wrap around deck has tons of space for relaxing and outdoor dining & entertaining featuring twin porch swings and breathtaking views. The first floor is capped off with a large storage closet and side entry door leading to the hot tub. Head upstairs to the crown jewel of the interior: the master bedroom. With soaring cathedral ceilings, exposed beams, reclaimed barn wood closet doors and a slider to a private balcony, it doesn’t get any better. Then there is the reclaimed barn ladder held off the floor by reclaimed block & tackle. Climb on up and there is a massive, finished loft with reclaimed wood knee wall, recessed lighting and window overlooking the yard and driveway. Can you imagine waking up, making your coffee and sitting on the balcony, just taking in the multi-mile views to start your day? The upper level is capped off with upstairs laundry, a hall bath with tub/shower combo and two additional bedrooms which started as a single, oversized bedroom which has been partitioned into two. With full length eaves storage and multiple closet doors to access, there is tons of space available for your storage needs. Back to ground level: the side yard is fully fenced for little ones or furry friends and there is crawl space access for additional storage. The oversized detached 2-car garage features cedar siding, side bay window, automatic garage door opener, pull down attic stairs and fully finished insulation and drywall throughout. The lot, location, A frame structure and detached garage make this property one of kind. Welcome home!
