Property Description
The lineage of the George Ely house begins its journey in 1795 when George Ely purchased the home from Oliver Paxson...Two important events in the history of New Hope. This home has been restored and renovated by various owners and the current stewards have brought it back to its original zoning of a single home residence. The current owners have maintained the property to a pristine state and have kept the home on a stellar level.
The George Ely house is approximately 3200 square feet (quite spacious for an in-town home)
with 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths. There are two large public rooms… One with a slate floor and decorative fireplace. This room is the equivalent of today’s “Great Room.” The other room, adjacent to the “Great Room,” offers pine flooring and is ideal for a large family dining room with no need for the obligatory holiday “children’s table” due to lack of space.
The open kitchen looks out on what can be a formal living room or T.V. room. The first floor level boasts tremendous flexibility that is only limited by your own imagination. The second and third levels contain 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths.
The George Ely House is the Currier and Ives home located in a quaint River Hamlet, that you have been searching for. Walk to restaurants, the theater, galleries, gift shops and the River, all within 5 minutes. Yet, only 40 minutes to Princeton; 55 minutes to Philadelphia; and 90 minutes to New York City. This pedigreed home is the one worth a second look. Note: The property has extremely low taxes and is part of the prestigious New Hope-Solebury School District!!!
* A special “Thank You” to Roy Ziegler for his historical information. Also Note: The first floor of this property is virtually staged.
