Property Greenwich (United States)

Looking for the perfect weekend escape? Historic Greenwich, in Cumberland County, New Jersey, is an hour and 45 minutes from Princeton, an hour from Philadelphia and the New Jersey shore, and a world apart. Settled in 1686 at the intersection of the Cohansey River and the Delaware Bay, Greenwich today boasts scores of 18th and early 19th century houses, excellent boating, kayaking, and bicycling, and is a gardener’s and nature-lover’s paradise. Despite its charm and beauty, Greenwich remains mostly undiscovered and entirely unspoiled. At 612 Ye Greate Street in Greenwich is the Arcade, an 1834 vernacular South Jersey post-and-beam, center-chimney house with four fireplaces. In 1999 the present owners purchased the Arcade, and under the direction of historic restoration architect Robert Watson, they completed a meticulous, documented restoration of the entire house and surrounding gardens, including a new kitchen and screened porch addition, as well as a period-style outbuilding and heated workshop. No detail was spared in either the restoration or the new construction to make everything historically accurate and sympathetic, while incorporating every modern convenience. The garden is planted with mature, carefully selected trees, shrubs, and perennial flowers. Please see the video tour and the link to the owners’ Arcade website provided in the MLS.

Property with pool and garden Wilmington (United States)

Welcome to one of the most impressive historic homes in the Brandywine Area, rich with history and elegance. The Marquis de Lafayette experienced his first action at the Battle of Brandywine on September 11, 1777, where he showed extreme courage under fire in leading an orderly retreat. Unfortunately, he was shot through the calf during the battle. After he recovered, Lafayette was given command of a division of troops. Legend has it that Doctor Chandler was the only surgeon available within miles, and he operated on the Marquis at the Chandler House. During the Marquis's convalescence, General Washington visited him multiple times. Situated in the charming village of Centreville, a unique country estate on over three acres of mature landscaping awaits. Specimen trees planted by Evelena duPont lace the property, and tucked within, one finds a refreshing swimming pool with an entertainment area framed with wisteria climbing across a 300-year-old stone wall foundation. This 18th-century stone house stimulates the senses with attention to detail around every corner. The home's grand entrance is flanked by sitting rooms, each with a fireplace. Seven working fireplaces, handsome paneling with built-ins including china cupboards. Rich hardwood floors and plaster walls have been restored beautifully. The brightly lit gracious kitchen has room for a full table, updated stainless appliances, and a French door that accesses the terrace--perfect for a morning breakfast. The adjacent butler's pantry is the perfect place to start the party before heading into the elegant dining room with a fireplace and a secret door that once led to the Underground Railroad hideaway below. The sunroom was once a screened porch that the current owners expanded and transformed into a spectacular great room following the historic detail of the home. The great room has a fireplace that was once in the landmark Shipley House (the other two are at Winterthur), and this is a large room for celebrating and entertaining...President Lyndon Johnson once was here for such an occasion. The stone wall at the entrance is original to the house that dates back to the 1720s. Up the stairs is a large main suite with loads of built-in closets and storage, a laundry room, and an additional guest suite that would be perfect for an au pair as it has access to the lower level via the second stairway. Two other bedrooms, each with a fireplace and bath, complete the second floor. The third floor is a magical hideaway for the young at heart--two bedrooms, a full bath, loads of storage, and access to the third-floor attic, which could be transformed into additional living space. The lower level has a wine cellar with historical roots to the Underground Railroad--the door to which is over 300 years old. There is a powder room, workroom, Bilco door for easy access, updated HVAC and water filtration systems, and a tunnel rumored to be part of the Underground Railroad. Outside is a carriage house with enough space for two cars and work equipment. The upstairs could be converted to additional living space. The roofs house have been replaced. There is tile, standing seam metal, and slate on the house. There are cedar roofs on outbuildings. Stone wall with electric gates to ensure privacy...truly a unique property. Located close to nearby Brandywine area attractions such as Winterthur, and Longwood Gardens as well as walkable to the Village of Centreville, this home is a dream home come true that is rarely available. Easy access to Philadelphia, New York, and Washington via air or rail.
