Gilded Age vibes abound in this amazing historical 1848 mansion, aptly named "Waterview" & located directly on the banks of the Delaware River in the town of Beverly. The location of this 6,200 sq. ft, 11 Bedroom masterpiece shares a rich history with the surrounding area. President George Washington was known to have crossed the Delaware nearby, and the historical Dunks Ferry Memorial within the Neshaminy State Park is directly across the river. As you stroll the grounds of Waterview, the 2.2 acre property includes your very own 148 ft. promenade/ bulkhead with existing piers for a future docking system for your water vehicles. Several well-lit carriage-style sheds along the property will meet all your storage needs. Your approach to this property elicits a breathtaking response as your eyes take in the expansive lawn areas and the grand pillared stature of this estate. Envision genteel folk sipping daiquiris on the 1,700 sq. ft of concrete patios bordered by hand-laid brick. Imagine all that has come before, and will come after, with you as the new owner. From the lawn and patio areas you can follow the sunrises and sunsets, view sail boats and cargo ships as they move about the Delaware. Lavish and luxurious details abound throughout this home and include 10 ft hand-carved front doors, ornate patinas, 13-foot ceilings in the grand, elongated foyer with a majestic crystal chandelier. Throw open the dual matching doors at the rear of the hallway and you have a direct view of the waterfront. There are 7 total fireplaces (wood 7 gas)throughout Waterview and the grand parlor is showcased by 2 of the originals as well as matching chandeliers. A Library on the first floor transports you back through history just imagining the business and life decisions that may have been made in this very location. Your elegant Dining Room is an ode to Giovanni Versace and can accommodate at least 18 guests for life's important celebrations. As in every home, the Kitchen is where everyone will gather and this commercially designed space will make everyone feel comfortable. Abundant cabinet and countertops space, dual sinks, refrigerators, freezers, ovens and extra large range means it will please a professional chef staff or the simple home chef. Relax with views of the river in the casual dining area of the Kitchen. Feel the history around you with original exposed brick and beams, while knowing all the modern amenities are there to meet today's needs. This area can hold an abundance of guests and adjoins a full water view bar and entertainment room with 10 ft. custom live edge oak wood bar with opposing granite countertop and a full set up for meeting all your entertaining demands. Amenities include dual sinks and a 200 pound ice maker. Awe inspiring 19ft sliding glass doors lead to the waterfront, brick patio for dining and relaxing, making this entire area an entertainer's dream come true. The upper and lower floors of the home is where the 11 Bedrooms are located as well as 2 partial bathrooms and 4 full bathrooms. All of this opens up so many additional possibilities for you as the lucky owner of a truly remarkable property. Not only is it being offered for sale below market value, assuring you of a solid investment, it also offers the opportunity to use the home as an income-producing asset. Perhaps it's as an Air BnB, traditional B&B, or as an event venue; the options are endless. The surrounding area makes a great destination getaway with the nearby Red Dragon Canoe & Sailing Club for private lessons and yearly events, Curtains Marina & The Wharf Waterfront Restaurant & Bar, historic Burlington City for outdoor/indoor dining, delicious food, coffee & ice cream shops. It's a short drive to New Hope, Lambertville, Yardley & Princeton areas for even more history and fun exploration. Local farms, wineries and breweries add more opportunity to enjoy the area. Doane Academy is a renowned private school nearby.
