Shall we meet in the tree house and watch the sun set? With direct Delaware River views, room after room of remarkable interiors, and a beautifully terraced rear yard complete with treehouse and fire pit, Hidden Cottage is the perfect example of why people love Bucks County homes. It is completely unique with old-world ambiance and historical details around every corner, yet it has been updated with significant investment by its present owners to offer every modern amenity. Likely built in the late 1700s as two separate residences for canal or mill workers, it has grown into a comfortably sized, expanded house suitable for full- or part-time residency. Stepping through the gate feels like an entry into a special world. Inside, pristine, wide-plank pumpkin pine floors, three fireplaces, and French doors galore await, as does a new custom kitchen with soapstone sink and counters and top-grade fixtures and appliances. The kitchen, formal dining and living rooms and sunroom all flow, making it well suited to entertaining. Whether facing the river or looking out to the patio and rear yard with its stacked stone walls and garden spots, there are pleasant views in every direction. The airy main bedroom suite includes a charming, petite deck. Two/three additional bedrooms are privately situated from the main suite. They share a hall bath designed as a two-person "shower room. " There is an impressive amount of storage built in throughout the house. The finished portion of the lower level now has two office spaces and accesses the garage. Move-in ready, Hidden Cottage is a treat to see and an opportunity to own one of the area's most special residences. Lumberville is a historical Solebury Township village along the river and lined with restored historical homes. This property is in the village and is just a few minutes' walk to the historic Black Bass Hotel/Tavern/Restaurant, Lumberville General Store and towpath for dog walks, bicycling and other activities.
