Built in the year 1752, this remarkable estate holds a distinguished place on the National Register of Historic Places and historically functioned as a medical facility for the troops of George Washington during the Revolutionary War. Nestled in a serene setting, the property includes a charming two-bedroom carriage house, a picturesque natural swimming pool that enhances the landscape, and a tennis court perfect for leisurely pursuits. An architectural masterpiece, the stately farmhouse hosts an awe inspiring sun-drenched great room with a library, vaulted ceilings and gas fireplace. A custom William Draper kitchen, rich wide-plank floors, exposed beams, custom millwork and six noble fireplaces also grace this extraordinary home. Additionally, the original bank-barn has been cleverly transformed to serve dual purposes as both a pool house and a garage. Surrounded by vibrant gardens, sturdy trees, and a sprawling meadow, this residence offers an enchanting blend of historical importance and natural charm. Washington Crossing State Park, where Washington crossed the Delaware in 1776, is just a mile away and offers access to the renowned 58.89 mile canal tow-path, is home to the iconic narrow metal bridge, scenic views along the lake and beautiful trails for hiking, trail running and biking, as well as a museum and historical sites. Exceedingly private yet conveniently located near New Hope Borough—known for its riverside dining and theater experiences, this estate is also near major cities such as Philadelphia, Princeton, and New York City; making it ideal for commuters and urban lifestyles. 1789 Wrightstown Road represents the perfect fusion of Bucks County’s cultured elegance and modern luxury. The bedroom count is reflective of 4 bedrooms in the main home and 2 bedrooms in the awe-inspiring carriage house.
