Perched on a wooded hillside just outside New Hope in desirable Solebury, this charming collection of three buildings creates a unique compound that offers a world of opportunities for weekenders or year ‘round living. The complex is set in a clearing surrounded by mature trees and greenery crisscrossed by lovely paths, edged by a stream and graced with wildflowers. The primary building is a two-story home. The main level features a large, gracious and light-filled living space with outdoor access to patios, decks and gardens. The updated cook’s kitchen has an over-sized island with granite countertops, a Wolfe range, generous cabinets and open shelves. Opposite is a long granite counter and a large window looking out to the garden and green lower hillside. It is framed by cabinets and an appliance garage. The kitchen opens to spacious dining and living areas. There are gleaming hardwood floors with radiant heat throughout the living, dining and kitchen areas. Windows on all four sides of this open and airy space add lots of natural light to the appealing contemporary design. Upstairs is the bedroom which features a wall of windows that let the light stream in, and a beautiful tiled bathroom with an over-sized shower. The laundry, storage and utility spaces are also on the second floor. The second building is an enchanting historic gem. The beautifully pointed stone exterior is punctuated with a heavy wood double door with leaded glass windows and French doors leading to a Juliet balcony. It is topped with a whimsical cupola. Inside, stone walls, wood floors, old beams and a decorative stone fireplace create an inviting and timeless space for entertaining, creating or relaxing. A spiral staircase leads to a loft. Down a winding staircase is a small room currently used for guests, and a full bathroom. Outside the cottage is a brick terrace with ample room for dining, sitting by a firepit or soaking up the sun. This patio sits between the main house and the cottage creating an inviting continuity between the two buildings. The third building on this unique 1.7 acre property is an over-sized two-car garage with an expansive studio above. One of the gable ends of the studio is made of glass block allowing for wonderful natural light. There is extensive storage in the eves of the studio This magical place is located just 3 miles to the center of historic New Hope with all its shops, restaurants, bars and entertainment venues; 1.5 miles to the charming river front town of Stockton, NJ; 70 miles to the Holland Tunnel and 44 miles to Philadelphia.
