Luxurious and Historic: Washington Crossing Home from 1750 Up for Sale
Greg Lang and his wife made a significant lifestyle change when they moved from Wilmington to Bucks County, drawn by Greg’s new job at an insurance company in Princeton, writes Paul Jablow for The Philadelphia Inquirer. Â
The couple fell in love with a historic home nestled on three acres, part of what was originally a 1,000-acre farm on 122 Walker Road.
This house, with parts dating back to 1750, has a rich history tied to Abraham Harvey, a farmer and merchant who owned the ferry service that transported George Washington across the Delaware River during the Revolutionary War.Â
The home features four bedrooms, three and a half baths, and maintains many original elements such as wide plank floors, high ceilings, exposed beams, and beveled glass windows.
Modern updates include a renovated primary bathroom with dual sinks and a large dressing room, a kitchen with granite countertops and built-in appliances, and essential home improvements like a new boiler and roof.
Listed at $1,095,000 by RE/MAX Centre Realtors, this unique property combines historical significance with modern luxury. It is ideal for a family looking to immerse themselves in America’s past while enjoying contemporary comforts.Â
