Chic Historic Luxury on the Delaware River

This spacious property combines a historic 1830s lodge and a newer addition into a skillful blend of tradition and modernity.Together they form a beautiful, private country retreat amidst the woods along the Delaware. The original Hamish Lodge house abounds in period details, from its welcoming front porch to its beamed ceilings to its wide-plank wood floors. These combine with such modern elements as an open plan main floor and a freshly renovated au courant kitchen equipped with top-of-the-line appliances to create a singular and singularly attractive living space. The same applies to the three bedrooms and two bathrooms upstairs. The newer wing offers a similar blending of style, but with more of an emphasis on the modern. Downstairs is a spacious great room with a two-sided fireplace and large French doors that let in lots of light and offer great views of the Delaware. The views are even better from the windows in the upstairs hallway, which takes you to the master suite with its spa-style bathroom and dressing area, two more bedrooms with walk-in closets, another full bath with a vintage clawfoot tub and a laundry facility. All of this sits on a nicely landscaped 1.6-acre lot that straddles River Road. Across the quiet lane is a deck with steps down to your 350-foot-long riverbank, a great place for outdoor relaxation, dining or taking in the scenic countryside. History and beauty surround you here: you’re right next to the Delaware and Raritan Canal State Park, and it’s a short walk or bike ride along the canal towpath to Bull’s Island State Park and the bridge to Lumberville, where the historic Black Bass Inn served as a hospital during the American Revolution. New Hope, Lambertville and Frenchtown are also easy to reach by bike or by car via the towpath or State Route 29. We look forward to hosting you!
