Property Description
Just off of the Delaware River in Tinicum Township, one of Bucks County’s most storied spots known for its winding roads and covered bridges, is "Dancers Dream" - a unique contemporary residence with unparalleled long distance views. A long, curving, paved driveway leads all the way to the hilltop with the main house connected by a large covered deck to a separate guest cottage. Both residences share spectacular long distance views. Built in 1982, the main house is a solar envelope design with main living space, dramatic greenhouse room and a full finished basement. One of the unique features of this house is the 300 square feet of vertical south facing glass along the greenhouse room wall. Standing on the 51x19” covered multi-level deck with cathedral ceiling and ceiling fans, you are immediately captivated by the panoramic views over the trees stretching all the way to New Jersey. Stepping down, but still covered, there are two parking spaces for your vehicles. Entering the house you can see that it was designed both to capture light and to take best advantage of the views from every window. Multiple sliding glass doors and walls of glass all underline the home’s best feature-that view! The contemporary floorplan is open with the kitchen, dining area and great room as well as primary bedroom, ensuite bath and dressing area on the first floor. Just off the great room is the greenhouse room and upstairs two additional bedrooms share a hall bath. The basement is finished with a rec room, full bath and large office space with a kitchenette! The laundry is also on the basement level. Across the covered deck and separate from the main house the bi-level attached guest cottage with flexible floorplan and one car garage can be accessed by a separate part of the driveway. The upper level features an open kitchen and great room with picture windows, one bedroom and full bath. Currently used as a second bedroom, the lower level could also function as a great family room. The property features a playful garden shed, a second smaller shed and a sparkling Sylvan pool with patio surround. Imagine a twilight swim in the utter peace and quiet of 10+ acres of beauty. It’s dark enough that you can actually see the stars and quiet enough to hear the ripples the water makes around you. The home and cottage reflect a true 1980’s aesthetic and significant updating and renovation will be necessary, however, just one look at the panoramic views will convince you that this one of a kind property is worth the polishing. Five minutes to the Delaware River and Tinicum park for art events and summer Polo, ten minutes to Frenchtown and 20 minutes to New Hope. A beautiful 90 minutes to NYC and Philly and about 50 minutes to Princeton.
