The Skinny: Originally built in 1875, Finale Farm sits on 33 acres of rolling fields in ridiculously picturesque Bucks County, Pa. The stone manor, which was renovated in 2008, features all sorts of nifty historic touches, including reclaimed French oak floors, Dutch doors, and exposed stonework throughout. There's even a huge walk-in stone fireplace, for those cold nights which require a really big fire, and, thanks to the renovation, contemporary luxury touches like a sleek Boffi kitchen and bathrooms and custom lighting from New Zealand. The seven-bedroom, six-bathroom home looks out over a bucolic country setting if ever there was one: there's a stream complete with a waterfall and footbridge, a tree-shaded pond, and a quaint outbuilding tucked away in a wooded clearing. The only thing that's missing is a pair of horses grazing contentedly in the fields, just visible through the early morning mist. The wood-framed west wing of the home looks out over the swimming pool, and houses the self-contained guest quarters. The listing asks $10K a month for the 7,000-square-foot estate.
