Premium location on one of the loveliest roads in Solebury township. Many original details remain including the beautiful clear Spruce floors on first and second floor (under carpet), a great stone fireplace and charming Dutch door at the front of the house. Canal Park is minutes from the house which allows a comfortable walk into town or a scenic stroll along the river. There is easy access to the the NJ toll bridge, or just a short trip to fabulous shopping, dining and entertainment in historic New Hope and Lambertville. Plus the home is in the award winning New Hope/Solebury School district. Priced to sell.
