Property Description

Set within the esteemed landscape of Upper Makefield, this remarkable estate is a rare offering of enduring beauty, provenance, and distinction. Dating to 1752 and proudly listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the Grand Manor holds a place of true historical importance, having once served as a medical hospital for George Washington’s troops during the Revolutionary War. Encompassing 6.3 exquisitely private acres, the property is composed of a restored stone manor house, a refined two-bedroom carriage house offering over 1,800 square feet of living space, and an extraordinary bank barn thoughtfully transformed into a pool house. The barn’s upper level includes changing rooms, a full bath, a utility room, and a dramatic two-story family space, while the lower level accommodates an oversized two-car garage, generous storage, and a workshop. A naturally formed swimming pool and tennis/sports court create an exceptional resort-like setting, seamlessly integrated into the surrounding landscape. Mature specimen trees, flourishing gardens, and a sweeping meadow frame the residences with an air of timeless grandeur and pastoral elegance. Ideally suited for multigenerational living, this estate reflects the highest standard of stewardship and a rare sense of legacy. Positioned just moments from Washington Crossing State Park, the canal towpath, and the historic crossing site, the property also enjoys proximity to New Hope, Philadelphia, Princeton, and New York City. 1789 Wrightstown Road is not merely a residence, but a landmark estate where history, luxury, and significance converge. *** The bedroom count reflects 4 bedrooms in the Stone Manor home and 2 bedrooms in the carriage home, bathrooms reflect 4 full in manor, 2 full n carriage, 1 full in Bank barn, 1 half in Manor, 1 half in carriage .
