About this home
Spectacular views await you at this charming river front home - ideal as a full-time residence or a romantic country retreat! Imagine the tranquility of a home where you can watch the river gently flow by. The wrap-around deck is the perfect vantage point to observe passing fishermen, or witness a pair of nesting eagles and panoramic views through the picture windows in the living room. With one full acre that leads to the canal and towpath in the rear of the property, you will truly enjoy the best of everything related to waterfront and towpath living. Enjoy a bright kitchen with newer appliances and river views. The large great room is complete with walls of glass and a cozy stone fireplace to ward off the chills as the seasons change. With three bedrooms and three full bathrooms, plus 2 additional dens on the first and second floor, there is ample space for family or out-of-town guests. The first floor den can also be used as a first floor bedroom with access to the full bath in the hall. Lots of character throughout this vintage home including built-ins, skylights, and exposed beams. New improvements include bamboo flooring on the second floor, updated baths, and a laundry room conveniently located on the main level. The home features 2-tier decks that are spacious enough for barbecuing, al fresco dining, and chaise lounges. Cool off in the saltwater swimming pool or take a break from the sun under the covered patio. The detached garage and carport keep vehicles and property protected. This beautiful acre extends to the historic Canal, where you can hike or bike along the towpath. This location is perfect for those who appreciate nature and the beauty of the river. The Frenchtown bridge and Tinicum Park are only minutes away, with easy access to NJ/NY/Philadelphia. Nearby farmers markets, parks, and polo in the summer, with plenty of recreational opportunities. Close to shopping, health facilities, and exceptional cultural venues and entertainment. Make this bucolic retreat your own! While the owners have never experienced flooding, they do have flood insurance due to newer flood mapping since hurricane Ida a few years ago. Come and visit and fall in love with this home that makes you feel like you are on vacation every day!
