Home Details for 1826 New Hope Rd

Welcome home, a place where daily life is deeply connected to the land. A spacious front porch, framed by cedar posts and a cozy screened-in nook welcomes you in. As you step inside, a rustic, French-country aesthetic invites you to slow down and savor an intentional pace of life. Oak floors, an open floor plan, an oversized island, butcher-block counters, a custom tea-making and baker’s shelf, and numerous brand-new features—wood-burning stove, water heater, electric panel, HVAC unit, stainless appliances, and fresh attic insulation—offer both comfort and peace of mind. Stepping outside, the heart of the property truly comes alive. A finished studio above the large barn, formerly an herbalism and conservation classroom, offers an inspiring retreat for guests, artists, writers, or anyone seeking space to create or simply be. A wraparound back deck rests beneath mature oaks, naturally moderating temperatures throughout the seasons. You’ll also find a covered space for rainy days, a sun-filled area ready to become a large garden, existing raised beds filled with food and medicinal herbs, culinary herb pots near the kitchen, a newly planted native pollinator garden around the home, fruit trees and bushes, at-risk plant species protected across the acreage, forest trails, and 1,500 feet of spring-fed creek meandering through the back forest. Beyond that, 2.5 acres of meadow lead to your private 150 feet of Sycamore Creek frontage, perfect for a restorative soak. A detached structure stands currently as a blank slate and was formerly used as a commercial kitchen and could easily be reactivated. The property is a designated Botanical Sanctuary and National Wildlife Conservation site, home to diverse species essential to the local ecosystem. Zoned Agricultural & in the Green Belt (2025 property taxes were $1,650). Every element of this home supports a life of connection, creativity, and self-sufficiency. An opportunity to live in genuine relationship with the land.
