Property Description
Totally restored 3 story townhouse, in move in condition, located one block from the Delaware River in Burlington City. This home was torn down to the foundation in 2000 and lovingly rebuilt from the foundation up......new walls, windows, doors, siding, plumbing, electric, etc etc. The big difference with this rebuild is that it was put back together with old wood flooring, exposed beams and accents to preserve the historic charm and feel of the original structure(look at the pics!). You would never guess this home was totally rebuilt as you walk up to the front door and note the brick sidewalks, heavy 6 panel wood front door, wood clapboards and divided lite windows that blend perfectly with the surrounding historic homes . Inside, the first floor has a living room, kitchen, dining room, powder room and laundry. Note the random width wood plank floors, exposed beam kitchen ceiling, natural wood trim and staircase. The kitchen has all the modern conveniences tastefully integrated with a washboard sink, wood countertops, wood topped island and open and closed shelving. A back door off the dining room leads to the back yard oasis with brick sidewalks, a water fountain, outdoor eating area, storage shed and lush planting beds. The second floor has a generous closeted bedroom overlooking the front and a huge full bathroom with a claw foot tub with wainscoting, pedestal sink, shower, water closet and checkerboard tile floor. The 3rd floor has a unique dormered bedroom with windows overlooking the front, side and back. Recent upgrades to this home include a new water heater and heater installed in 2023 and please note that flood insurance is required. Besides being a short walk to the Delaware River Promenade this property is also within walking distance of downtown restaurants and shopping and just minutes from the Burlington Bristol Bridge, Rt 130 and the Riverline. This home is currently listed as an AIR B&B, so it could Also be a great investment property!! If you love historic ambiance this is the home for you.........schedule a showing, you won't be disappointed!
