New Hope, Pennsylvania
Enjoy the beauty of Bucks County while sleeping in the oldest home in New Hope. It is a Historic landmark, located on the banks of the Delaware River. Located right in town, so you can walk anywhere in New Hope, or cross the bridge and you're in Lambertville, NJ.
The house has all the charm of the 1700's, but has been updated for your enjoyment. There are fireplaces in both bedrooms, as well as the family room and living room.
At this time, the fireplaces cannot be used, they are not working.
The house is a perfect "get away" for a long weekend or vacation lasting weeks. The house works well for four people, but you can put a child on the sofa bed in the family room.
Since the house is located right in the middle of town, there can be noise from the businesses on the block at night. If you are looking for a quite holiday, my house will not work well for you. If you want to be able to walk to restaurants, bars, the Play house as well as crossing the bridge into Lambertville, then my house will work well for you.
Each of the bedrooms have comfortable bed with views to the river. The family room has the "Lazyboy" for those afternoons of just lazying around and enjoying the sounds of the river.
You are a 20 minute ride to Princeton, and New York City is a little over an hour away by train. But remember, you do not have to leave the area. New Hope and Lambertville have numerous antique stores and of course the famous flea markets. There are many charming restaurants that you can walk to and the walking trails are just at the end of the block..

This was the 3rd time we have enjoyed this property. It is like getting to spend a night in a museum, and it was perfectly central to everything in New Hope. On a wintery day, it was a warm and cozy refuge and an easy home base for short walks to restaurants and shops. The property owner is very nice and very responsive. We will be staying here again for sure.
This was our second stay and it did not disappoint. Great location, spacious, and lots of charm. Very clean and fun with all the Halloween decorations. Hope to return again next year!
The house was centrally located to everything you need in New Hope. It was charming and historic. We will definitely stay here again on our next trip!
We absolutely loved this property. We had parking for our stay. The host communicated and left instructions out. Charming stone house in the middle of town. We walked to everything. The playhouse was across the street and visible from the fenced in backyard. All the restaurants were across street or next door. We had a lovely time. Great place to visit!
We enjoyed every minute! Loved the character of the home! Immaculate! Great linens and slept like a baby! The kitchen had everything that we needed! Great places to relax and just read a book. We didn’t need our car the entire time. Great restaurants literally steps away! Beautiful walking trails. Barbara truly made our stay so comfortable and was the perfect host! Can’t wait to return! Such a beautiful area! Bucks County is amazing ! So much to do or not do! You will have everything that you need on this gorgeous retreat !!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this historic gem right smack in the middle of New Hope! Note that this is an older home therefore be prepared to be a bit careful on the slightly narrow windy stairs etc --none of which bothered us in the least! Lots to walk to ( you won't go hungry or thirsty no matter your wont), including nearby Lambertville. The house has upstairs and downstairs living spaces with TVs and comfy sitting areas with modern touches (wifi and streaming channels are a nice option). Beds were comfy too and extra linens and towels were easy to find. Barbara and her assistant were super responsive and helpful when contacted before and during our stay. We hope to be back! Thank you!!
Wonderful stay in best possible New Hope location in 1743 stone house. And no, unfortunately, it wasn't really haunted!
The home was great, just as advertised, within walking distance to just about everything. As warned, it was loud on that street at night. Not so much that we couldn't sleep. The only issue we had was getting the living room gas fireplace lit. The only way we had to reach the owner was via email which is not convenient. We did end up figuring it out on our own as we weren't easily reaching the owner. Other than that, our stay was great, and we'd stay there again.
We had girls trip. It was amazing. Location is perfect. Great restaurants/bars. Close wall to Lambertville. We would stay again
My 2 adult daughters and I loved our stay at the Van Sant house. It is spacious, very comfortable and was loaded and decorated with lots vintage charm and antiques. The location could not be more perfect. We unloaded our car upon arrival, parked it in spot provided up the street and never used our car until we checked out. We walked everywhere! This historical home has been updated with all the modern conveniences while leaving the charm…it has updated heating system, plumbing, bathrooms, flat screen tv with plenty of viewing options, fast wifi / internet, great hot water supply…& updated appliances. The kitchen was well equipped with all the basic needs. The beds, couch all very cozy and comfortable. We loved using the fireplace in the living room…it’s a great room to hang out. The mentioned ‘noise’ on the street was not a problem for us and it did not happen late at night. We loved our stay and will definitely be back! Thank you Barbara for offering this beautiful unique, historical home for us to experience and make fine memories.
Awesome location mixed with the historic, comfortable feel of the home made for a wonderful stay! Would definitely recommend for a unique adventure in New Hope.
We REALLY enjoyed our stay. The owner was very accessible and responsive. The location is amazing and the house offered everything we needed. If traveling with children, be warned, our 11 year olds were a bit scared, they did not have appreciation for the property age or the paranormal references in the guest book. The moms loved it!
Spent a beautiful weekend in New Hope. The house is centrally located so we parked the car and walked everywhere. We loved the charm of the house and how it was decorated. The outdoor patio was great for morning coffee and planning the day.
New Hope is awesome and this is the best location possible. Very clean with backyard to sit and have some drinks. We will be back for sure.
