Property Description

New memories are waiting to be made along the river at 170 N. Main Street in the idyllic Borough of New Hope! This magnificent home was completely remastered by its current owners who, with great attention to detail and a design by Lynn Taylor & Associates, renown Bucks County Architects, created a charming, open concept space with sweeping views of the Delaware River and New Hope Village. Enter the garden gate and follow the Pennsylvania bluestone walkway past meticulous gardens designed to bloom in succession from spring through fall. The garden layout was created by John Morgan Thomas, Landscape Architects, to compliment the property and its design for outdoor living. This home, with its many specimen plantings, was selected as a stop on the New Hope Garden Tour. The cozy front porch warmly welcomes you home! Enter the foyer washed in shiplap and terra cotta color Mexican floor tile which leads into a bright and open living area. The original stone fireplace painted in the German schmear technique, now with a natural gas ventless fireplace insert, is surrounded by built-in cabinetry with natural wood shelves. Warm, burled maple floors run throughout the first floor and continue up the open staircase to the second level. A window bench with storage provides a cozy reading nook. The kitchen workspace overlooks the breakfast bar and dining area encased with windows that give the feeling of dining al fresco. The kitchen features a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Miele 5 burner induction cooktop, Miele wall oven and microwave, a large farmhouse sink and countertops which are naturally mined stone from Vermont. The first floor also contains a den and exercise room with beamed ceilings and LED lighting, both of which could be used as bedrooms, and a full, modern bathroom with walk-in shower. The second floor contains two separate suites, the master suite with sitting area, two walk in custom closets, laundry area and master bath with both a shower and a jacuzzi. The Juliet doors in the master suite open to breathtaking river views which the current owners say is their favorite vantage point! The charming guest suite features a window bench with storage, a full bath and an adjoining sleeping area. The sliding glass doors in the living area open to terraced bluestone and brick patios, natural stone walls mined from a local Bucks County quarry and a composite river walk with footings ready for your dock and watercraft. Additional areas include a grill and smoker station with electric and natural gas, and a beautiful natural stone walkway that leads to a potting area with raised strawberry patch. All exterior custom built fencing, pergolas and trellis pieces are constructed of cedar and capped in copper. The cedar shake roof, copper gutters and downspouts, Marvin windows and Azek trim were chosen for both their natural beauty and longevity. A whole house generator, climate control systems and a Google smart home system are just a few of the many thoughtful features of this home. Of great importance to note is that the property across the river has been preserved so that your views of the foliage will remain unchanged. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a home in historic and culturally rich New Hope! From your front door you are less than one mile to all that New Hope and Lambertville have to offer by way of restaurants, shopping and entertainment, as well as an easy commute to New York or Philadelphia for work or weekend getaways.
