Bucks County Community Guide

Buckingham

Pastoral Central Bucks landscapes, historic crossroads and refined homes with convenient access to Doylestown and New Hope.

Bucolic by nature

Open land, enduring character.

Buckingham’s identity lives in its landscape: farm fields, old stone houses, wooded roads and village centers including Lahaska, Holicong and Buckingham itself. The township feels rural in the best sense while remaining close to two of Bucks County’s most active towns.

The Buckingham Friends Meetinghouse reflects deep Quaker roots. Nearby, the Pearl S. Buck House preserves the home and legacy of the Nobel and Pulitzer Prize-winning author, while Peddler’s Village brings shops, dining and year-round events to Lahaska.

The architecture is inseparable from the agricultural past. Brown and gray fieldstone farmhouses, bank barns, springhouses and converted agricultural buildings remain visible throughout the township. They are joined by traditional colonials, custom estate homes and planned neighborhoods that borrow from the region’s historic forms.

The market spans historic farmhouses, custom homes, established luxury neighborhoods, townhome communities and acreage. Horse farms and equestrian estates add fenced fields, riding facilities and barns, while preserved farmland maintains the long views that define Buckingham.

The property lens

Septic, wells, easements, preserved land, outbuildings and zoning can materially affect use and value. The analysis changes by property type: a townhome may turn on association rules, a historic farmhouse on renovation quality, and an equestrian estate on permitted uses and the condition of barns, fencing and pastures.
