This romantic Bucks County hideaway is set amidst verdant forest on a sheltered bluff with mesmerizing views of the Delaware River and pastoral vistas beyond. The environs are magical and the home's artistic design and perfect position take full advantage of its surroundings. The bucolic 12 acres are a perfect haven for wildlife. Extensive walking paths invite you to explore the acreage, watch the seasons change and pick a bouquet of wildflowers to accompany your dinner with vegetables from your garden, eggs from your chickens and fruit from your orchard. At first approach, the cottage exterior evokes the English countryside. Cozy up with a book, a fire, a cup of tea and you'll lose your sense of time. Inside, these charms are compounded, as each turn reveals delightful architectural details & a charming ambiance. The great room offers soaring ceilings, double-sided fireplace, oversized windows and antique hand-hewn beams. Wide-plank honey-colored hardwood floors from trees harvested on the property run throughout the home. Granite counters and gas range adorn the kitchen that opens to the wrap around deck for front-row views of the majestic Delaware as it ripples below. Two bedrooms and a full bath complete the first level. A vaulted master suite sits privately on the upper level with tree-top views of eagles soaring over the river. A walk-out lower level offers a 3rd full bath, sitting room and family room all steps away from the patio with sauna and hot tub while the inground pool also offers privacy. For the guests who visit, and will never want to leave, there is an independent guest house with ample space, woodstove, laundry and separate driveway entrance. Riverbend Cottage is positioned at the end of a meandering drive with easy access to New York, New Jersey and Philadelphia but from this vantage point you are in a world of your own
