About This Home

As of August 2020

The Cottage on North Main is one of those New Hope gems that are becoming more and more difficult to find. The owners took the original cottage and expanded it into a perfect retreat for either weekenders or a fulltime residence. Quality materials were used throughout...hardwood flooring, designer baths, open-floor concept and large master bedroom and private bath with fireplace. A two-car garage, a rarity for in-town living, provides additional storage, as well. Bar-b-ques and gatherings are possible in the rear yard or side patio. The small stream can provide the Zen quality to a stressful day. The Cottage at North Main Street provides a retreat to come home to that is within walking distance to fine dining, town pubs, the Bucks County Theatre, art galleries and all of the activities associated with New Hope and Lambertville living.
