About this property

Chic Historic Luxury on the Delaware River

This spacious property combines a historic 1830s lodge and a newer addition into a skillful blend of tradition and modernity.Together they form a beautiful, private country retreat amidst the woods along the Delaware.

The original Hamish Lodge house abounds in period details, from its welcoming front porch to its beamed ceilings to its wide-plank wood floors. These combine with such modern elements as an open plan main floor and a freshly renovated au courant kitchen equipped with top-of-the-line appliances to create a singular and singularly attractive living space. The same applies to the three bedrooms and two bathrooms upstairs.

The newer wing offers a similar blending of style, but with more of an emphasis on the modern. Downstairs is a spacious great room with a two-sided fireplace and large French doors that let in lots of light and offer great views of the Delaware. The views are even better from the windows in the upstairs hallway, which takes you to the master suite with its spa-style bathroom and dressing area, two more bedrooms with walk-in closets, another full bath with a vintage clawfoot tub and a laundry facility.

All of this sits on a nicely landscaped 1.6-acre lot that straddles River Road. Across the quiet lane is a deck with steps down to your 350-foot-long riverbank, a great place for outdoor relaxation, dining or taking in the scenic countryside.

History and beauty surround you here: you’re right next to the Delaware and Raritan Canal State Park, and it’s a short walk or bike ride along the canal towpath to Bull’s Island State Park and the bridge to Lumberville, where the historic Black Bass Inn served as a hospital during the American Revolution. New Hope, Lambertville and Frenchtown are also easy to reach by bike or by car via the towpath or State Route 29.

We look forward to hosting you!

Ultimate Relaxati0on on the Delaware River

Great location. Fantastic to wake up each morning looking at the river from the expansive view this property provides. Plenty of comfortable room for our family of 8. Totally enjoyed our 10 day stay at this property.

Lovely 10 days on the Delaware River

We just spent a week and a half at Betsy’s beautiful home on the Delaware River. The house is perfect for a family reunion or a group of friends looking for a quiet getaway. The house was impeccably clean and is fully equipped, from the gourmet kitchen to the plentiful pool towels. The outdoor spaces are lovely. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch at the end of the day looking out over the river and had most of our meals at the large outdoor table under the lights of the arbor. The pool is beautifully situated with a view of the river (though it is not heated) and the landscaping is exceptional. There is plenty of parking for a group of 8-10 people. We also used the bike paths (access is literally at your back door) and we also kayaked several days. Our only complaint is that the steps from the deck do not actually go to the river, so you’ll need to launch your water toys from a boat launch half a mile away. We look forward to our next visit!
