Discreet luxury and historic character come together at the Lake-Colligan House, an 1816 residence on 2.8 wooded acres in the Delaware River Valley. Extensive updates completed by the current owner throughout 2025 and 2026 have brought the home to a new level, revealing its architectural beauty while introducing a fresh sense of style, comfort and openness. A sophisticated new exterior color enhances the home’s timeless lines and creates an inviting first impression. Thoughtful landscape clearing opens the grounds and reveals a more usable backyard while retaining the wooded surroundings that give this property its privacy and connection to nature. Inside, exposed ...stone walls, substantial beams and hardwood floors create a rich backdrop for carefully chosen modern details. A striking iron staircase adds a sculptural element, while recessed lighting brings a warm glow to the renewed interiors. Walls have been removed to open the main living spaces, creating an easy flow for entertaining and everyday life while preserving the character that makes an older home so appealing. Existing hardwood floors have been sanded and left ready for the next owner’s preferred finish. The gourmet kitchen blends soapstone counters, stainless steel appliances and new hardwood flooring with the warmth of the home’s original materials. There is room for a kitchen table for casual meals, complemented by a separate dining room for larger gatherings and more formal occasions. Main-floor laundry adds convenience, and two staircases contribute to the home’s distinctive layout. Three bedrooms, three full and a half baths and an additional flexible room offer versatility for everyday living, working from home or creative pursuits. The additional room makes an inviting office, guest room, studio or sitting room, allowing the layout to suit individual needs. A newly added second-floor full bath enhances comfort, while the third floor enjoys its own full bath with a spacious glass-enclosed shower, creating a private retreat. Outside, the stone patio provides a welcoming setting for dining, relaxing and enjoying the surrounding greenery. The newly opened rear grounds invite gardening, recreation and possibilities for a personalized outdoor retreat. A future pool may be a possibility, subject to site evaluation and all required approvals. For those who love the outdoors, the location is a particular draw. The canal towpath is just across the street, offering miles of scenic terrain for biking, walking and running along the Delaware River corridor. Nearby river access provides opportunities for kayaking, canoeing, tubing and fishing, bringing an active outdoor lifestyle within easy reach. Explore the restaurants, cafés, galleries, boutiques and cultural attractions of nearby Stockton, Frenchtown, Lambertville and New Hope, each offering its own distinctive river-town atmosphere. Convenient connections to regional routes and rail service put New York City within reach for work or a weekend outing. With its blend of history, thoughtful updating and understated luxury, the Lake-Colligan House offers a private woodland setting and an inviting connection to life along the river.
