About This Home

As of July 2013

George Washington himself surely raised a few pints to independence at The Black Horse Tavern, which stood high above the canal just up the road from the General's final headquarters. Today, it is a sensitvely restored 5-bedroom home with an ongoing story to tell. The house has served as muse to a Pulitzer Prize winning poet and the bucolic property, complete with a diminutive writers' retreat at the edge of protected farmland, has been a peaceful place to pen more than one successful novel. Dating to 1752, the original structure was more than doubled in the early 19th century. Classic Federal Style is represented in an intricately carved archway in the wide center hall. Corner cupboards, wide plank floors and detailed mantles around working fireplaces still grace the large room, many donning custom finishes. Antique fixtures join commercial appliances in harmonious kitchen expansion by architect Max Hayden. Just outside, paths, patios and walls of stone meander around the house and its separate garage.
