With a notable history of playing host to visitors in charming Frenchtown for over a century, this expanded Victorian, the famed Widow McCrea House, could serve equally well as a single-family home with a separate cottage for Airbnb income or home office usage, or remain as a bed and breakfast with owners’ quarters in the expanded lower level office suite. Working from home can be combined with comfortable family living in gathering rooms or private quiet spaces. Just across the river from Bucks County, PA, thriving Frenchtown’s new arts center, quaint shops, fine local restaurants, and the scenic Delaware River are all reachable by foot or by bicycle. Beautifully restored, renovated, and added onto by its current owner, this 1878 Italianate Victorian features six spacious suites, all with private bathrooms. Original pocket doors connect the gracious formal dining room and newly renovate...

Working from home can be combined with comfortable family living in gathering rooms or private quiet spaces. Just across the river from Bucks County, PA, thriving Frenchtown’s new arts center, quaint shops, fine local restaurants, and the scenic Delaware River are all reachable by foot or by bicycle. Beautifully restored, renovated, and added onto by its current owner, this 1878 Italianate Victorian features six spacious suites, all with private bathrooms. Original pocket doors connect the gracious formal dining room and newly renovated centralized kitchen, a family room addition, three romantic fireplaces plus the charming, renovated cottage with a kitchenette, bathroom and private patio. Relax on the wraparound front porch, in the magical gardens or on a sweet private patio, when not exploring the scenic surrounds of beautiful Hunterdon County. One of the suites is located on the first floor with its own entrance and can be completely cordoned off from the rest of the house. Four bedrooms are on the second floor including the new primary bedroom suite with a very spacious, spa-worthy bathroom. The lower level, added during the expansion, features an owner or caretaker’s suite, with a living area and bathroom. There’s plenty of parking along with a detached two-car garage. This home oozes with period details and care was meticulously taken during the renovation to maintain and preserve the historical integrity of such a well-loved staple of Frenchtown. This is the only in-town bed and breakfast currently serving this thriving arts community. More photos to come.
