Perched on the outskirts of the charming town of New Hope, this property offers the perfect balance between seclusion and convenience. Just minutes away from the bustling borough, you'll enjoy the privilege of escaping to your private retreat without sacrificing accessibility to urban amenities. Nestled in the heart of almost 6 acres, the cottage stands as a testament to the transformative power of artistic vision. What was once a modest and weathered structure has been transformed through meticulous renovation by two international artists, weaving together their creativity and passion to breathe new life into this picturesque retreat. The enchanting 2-bedroom cottage, accompanied by a separate studio, creates a unique and versatile living space that seamlessly blends classic charm with modern convenience. As you approach the property via a long private driveway, a picturesque landscape welcomes you, adorned with lush greenery and mature trees. Step inside, and you'll be greeted by a cozy living room, bathed in natural light streaming through carefully placed windows. The hardwood floors add a touch of rustic elegance, creating a warm ambiance that invites you to unwind and relax. The fireplace becomes the focal point, providing not just warmth but also a sense of nostalgia. The kitchen, the heart of any home, is a delightful mix of functionality and style. Modern appliances, including a Bertazzoni range, seamlessly integrate with vintage-inspired details, offering a space where culinary creativity flourishes. Adjacent to the kitchen is a charming dining area, perfect for intimate gatherings and shared meals. An adorable powder room with pocket door completes the main level. Upstairs the two bedrooms are retreats of comfort, each thoughtfully designed to provide a peaceful haven. Natural light floods through the windows, creating a serene atmosphere, while ample closet space and a spacious hall bath ensures that practicality meets aesthetics. As you step outside, a private garden oasis awaits, offering a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. A patio area provides an ideal spot for al fresco dining or simply enjoying the beauty of the surroundings. The meticulously landscaped grounds create a sense of seclusion, making it easy to forget that you're just moments away from the conveniences of city life. The real gem of this property lies in its separate studio, a versatile space that sparks the imagination. Whether utilized as a private office, an art studio, or a guest retreat, this standalone structure offers endless possibilities. It’s an independent sanctuary within the enchanting confines of the property. If you are up for more than a leisurely stroll of your land, the nearby tow path offers opportunities for an invigorating walk or bike ride, and local artisanal shops and cafes provide a taste of the town's unique charm. Overall, this property appears to offer a perfect blend of natural beauty, artistic vision, and practical living spaces, making it an inviting and unique retreat for those seeking a balance between seclusion and community living.
