Description:
Welcome to "Shangri-La on the River"; awaken your imagination. This contemporary & bohemian residence embodies a lifestyle synonymous with an entire region. Creatives seek inspiration here; resting their painting-easels against sycamores, biking the backroads, & hunting for antique treasures. Originating from the Catskill Mountains of New York, and running south along the border of New Jersey and Pennsylvania, is the Delaware River. It is the longest free-flowing river in the eastern United States, and its series of charming towns are steeped in history, veiled in scenic beauty, & bejeweled with a centuries-old cultural arts scene. The aura of this home is a colorful collector's item, encompassing something rural yet worldly, spiritual yet tangible. It is neatly nestled into the Stockton hillside, between the towpath & the riverscape, uniquely overlooking the Tohickon Creek's confluence with the Delaware. Outside there is tremendous wildlife to behold, and inside, the celebration continues. The converted home's ground floor consists of an oversized art studio, an open concept living & kitchen area, and a sensational full-bathroom. The studio space is keenly arranged; featuring airy French doors, built-in storage, radiant heat in the floor, a bank of north-facing windows, & 10' high ceilings. It is a canvas in itself! Take the home's set of L-shaped stairs up from the studio to discover the primary suite, decked out with a Juliet balcony, skylights, exposed beams, radiant heated cork floor, & a moody en suite bathroom featuring a music-paper-decoupage soaking tub. Back downstairs, and into the main living area, porcelain-tile, radiant heated floors & exposed beams entertain the eye. There is an earthy full-bathroom with a wrap-around mosaic design, a zen kitchen overlooking the garden, & a dining space capturing enthralling views of the water. Sliding-door access to your left leads onto a stone patio surrounded by a mature, organic garden full of perennial annual foods and flowers. Enjoy the stunning river view while you graze the garden's offerings; a distinguished, artful, & exceptionally bounteous treasure featuring over 100 varieties of vegetation. Meander up the kitchen's spiral staircase to the second bedroom suite, a guest bedroom suite featuring a romantic terrace-balcony that offers panoramic river views. Peacefulness defines this home; it is immersive, enlightened, & poetic. Ever-evolving, the historic town of Stockton has sweet shops, restaurants & galleries (The Stockton Inn inspired Broadway-composer Richard Rodgers' "There's a Small Hotel"). Frenchtown offers an art center and theatre, and an array of restaurants and quaint shops. These tranquil river towns are conveniently close to major hubs such as New York, Princeton, & Philadelphia. The roadside stands, stone walls, and the pastoral homes deliver a rare ambiance that has inspired for centuries; "Shangri-la on the River" has open arms, and its embrace is unforgettable.
