Property Description
Welcome to Wickham Cottage- A Charming Riverfront Retreat! A fairytale, quintessential Bucks County cottage nestled along the historic Delaware River, this charming property has 2-3 bedrooms and is conveniently located with easy access to Princeton, Newtown, train stations and many of the major NE arteries. This one-of-a-kind home is perfect for full time or weekender living. Next to the scenic river with riparian rights, this is a perfect match for anyone enjoying water-sports and river living. The area has so much to offer with lots of small river towns along both sides of the Delaware River. The area is home to incredible restaurants, galleries, food markets, interesting shops and much more with historic Yardley only minutes away. This home is charming whether entering through the back or the front. The rear of the property features beautiful flower beds, a raised porch and a breezeway which will probably be the way you will regularly access the home. A few steps up will lead you to the kitchen with upgraded countertops, a walk-in pantry and an eat-in area for your everyday casual meals. The kitchen even has an elevator to the garage level that the current owner occasionally uses for heavy grocery bags. The spacious and light-filled dining room has a built-in vitrine cabinet, hardwood floors and is a perfect spot for a romantic candle lit dinner for two or your next big family dinner for the holidays. The large family/living room runs the entire width of the home. Here you’ll find more hardwood floors (throughout most of the home), lots of windows and a wood burning fireplace with a heat insert that will easily heat the whole house on a windy, cold winter's night. The living room gives you access to your private covered porch with views of your gardens, gazebo and fire pit - what a great spot for your Sunday morning cup of coffee and your NY Times! The two bedrooms are conveniently located away from the entertainment areas with a separating hallway, sharing an updated full bath. Attached through French doors in the living room you will find a bonus sunroom, would be a great art studio, home office, yoga room or why not a guest bedroom should you ever need it. A studio apartment sits above the two-car garage which you access by the covered breezeway. Your guests will have their own private space with another full bath and kitchenette, a great spot for an in-law or teen suite or maybe an au-pair. This home has a lot to offer. 90 minutes to NYC, Princeton 20 minutes, Newtown 15 minutes and the nearest train station is only 10 minutes away.
