The 49th Bucks County Designer House & Gardens, Hidden Trail Farm, located in Ivyland, will be open for tours from April 27 through May 25.
The centerpiece of Hidden Trail Farm is a 5,000-square-foot farmhouse featuring a welcoming porch, three fireplaces, six bedrooms and numerous gathering and entertaining spaces. The property also includes an impressive custom-designed chalet built in 1992 with an open, multi-story living area, loft and two additional bedrooms.
A recently renovated pool and patio area includes a large screened-in gazebo and stunning Koi pond with waterfall, while a large barn has space for multiple boutiques and an on-site cafe serving lunch and light fare. Old York Cellars will provide wine.
“We are thrilled to have this very special, historic property as our 2025 Designer House, and are looking forward to sharing it with the public,” said Monica Mosley, chair of the 2025 Designer House Committee.
This is the largest fundraiser held by the Village Improvement Association of Doylestown (VIA), a non-profit women's organization that founded Doylestown Hospital in 1923. Funds from the 2025 Designer House will benefit community mental health well-being and enhancement of the Doylestown Hospital Emergency Department mental health unit.
Monies raised also support the work of numerous VIA committees that assist veterans and those in need and provide academic scholarships to teens and women seeking to re-enter the workforce. Funds are also allocated for maintenance of the James-Lorah Memorial Home in Doylestown, which serves as the VIA headquarters and is a museum listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
