About This Home

As of September 2020

Winding down River Road, with the sparkling water on one side and lovely antique homes on the other, is a quaint farmhouse that provides all the peace and quiet that you are looking for. This farmhouse is located right across from a sweet little footbridge entry to the 830 acre Delaware River Canal Park that runs along the Delaware from Easton to Bristol PA. You could walk or bike all the way to New Hope! The lovely Tinicum Creek is right next to the property. Imagine soft summer nights on the paver patio overlooking the bubbling creek below or swinging on the wide rocking chair porch. From the porch you enter the home to the foyer with the living room on one side and the dining room on the other. Both rooms feature crown molding and chair well as well as chandeliers with ceiling medallions. The living room features a wood burning fireplace and gorgeous pine flooring. Simplicity is the hallmark here; clean lines and minimal architectural detail create a calm and quiet space to relax in. The dining room has an entrance to the side yard and built in display shelves. If you have no need for a formal dining room this would also make a great family room as it is open to the kitchen. The kitchen itself has been recently remodeled with granite counter tops, center island, expansive cabinets, custom tile backsplash and a sunny breakfast room with a door to the patio overlooking Tinicum Creek. Multiple windows invite the soft breezes in and entertaining or even just an afternoon coffee break can spill out onto the paver patio to enjoy that wonderful water view. A powder room completes this floor. On the second floor the master suite is accessed down a hallway of closets including the full sized washer and dryer. French doors open to a charming Juliet balcony and the ensuite bath is modern with a walk in stall shower. Bedrooms number two and three share a hall bath also accessed through a hallway of large closets. A spacious fourth bedroom could be an excellent office. Stairs lead to the floored and drywalled attic. Currently unheated the attic is a great place for storage. Additional storage in the walk out basement with bilco doors. Central air in most rooms, oil hot water baseboard heat, private well, large open lot and the best location: equidistant to Philadelphia and New York - a wonderful full time or vacation home!
