A barn that was transformed into a luxurious, 10,000-square-foot home in New Hope, PA, has hit the market for $10 million.

Known as “The Gatsby Barn,” the six-bedroom, 6.5-bath residence spans four levels.

Jazz singer-songwriter Leon Redbone, who died in 2019, was the prior owner and sold it to the current sellers in 2018 for about $1 million.

Over a two-year period, the owners transformed the former red barn, built in 1878, into a remarkable Art Deco-inspired beauty, and they’ve certainly priced it to reflect the upgrades.

The sprawling interior was the brainchild of two New York City designers, who were looking to combine the nostalgia of the Roaring ’20s with modern amenities.

“The special part about this home is the history of the property,” says listing agent Maureen Reynolds, of Serhant Pennsylvania LLC. “To get a large black barn that is 40 feet in height in Bucks County is really quite special. … I think the juxtaposition of old versus new was the key to the design.”

From a cozy living room with a stylish gas fireplace to an enormous dining room designed for hosting, there are plenty of spaces to welcome guests and enjoy family time.

“Everywhere you go, you will find a sitting area,” Reynolds notes. “The home offers this unique ability to stop and spend time together anywhere you are. There isn’t any place in the house where you can’t do that.”

Restored, antique balcony railings from the Waldorf-Astoria New York’s Starlight Room provide added history and luxury.

A four-story elevator and four-story, glass-encased, steel stair tower come with major wow factor.

A sleek chef’s kitchen features high-end appliances, including a custom-built La Canche range from Paris and matching hood from RangeCraft. The culinary space also features a steam oven, custom cabinets, and an eight-seat, 16-foot island.

A professional-style bar with tin ceilings, smoky mirrors, and custom-lit glass shelves is situated nearby. There are also two separate wine rooms designed to accommodate up to 900 bottles.

“If someone loves cooking, there is also a kitchen on the lower level; and there is an entertainment area, where they put in over $1 million in that alone,” Reynolds says. “They have had professional and celebrity chefs come and cook there. The lighting system alone is amazing.”

A home theater with a bar spans the top floor of the home.

The 10.5-acre property also features a heated pool and spa, imported palm trees, and an outdoor shower.

A nearby pavilion is outfitted with a 22-seat bar and a hanging fireplace imported from France. And an upscale outdoor kitchen comes complete with a pizza oven, Japanese hibachi tables, and a custom-built smoker.

There’s also a guest cottage and a carriage house with a fitness center and dance studio.

“They designed this home for their busy, active family to enjoy both indoor and outdoor living,” Reynolds says. “It is edgy but has a lot of comforts, like a large kitchen that it is so well thought out and designed. They thought of every detail to make the home comfortable. It’s not formal or stuffy; it’s just fun.”

She believes the dwelling will be used as a primary residence, possibly by someone who appreciates the property’s outdoorsy locale and edgy, urban-inspired design.

“It’s just so special,” Reynolds says. “We have had a lot of international interest, as well as from the West Coast. … The buyer could also be looking for somewhere to escape and get away from the city.”
