There are few opportunities in life to acquire an architecturally significant property with commanding east, west, and north views of the Delaware River. Designed by J. Robert Hillier, this striking minimalist residence (c.2004) is listed by River Valley Realty for $2,850,000.

Built into a bluff overlooking the river, organic elements such as a partial sod roof planted with meadow grasses and stone quarried on-site blend the building with its surroundings.

Through the arrival court, shaded by a cantilevered canopy, a cylindrical greeting room establishes the meticulous aesthetic defining the home. Curved zinc walls and a dramatic skylight offer sculptural appeal and complement the Winchester black slate fireplace.

Floor-to-ceiling glass windows anchor the public spaces, affording a seamless connection to the panoramic vistas. Hand-selected limestone floors, warmed by radiant heat, flow from the living room into the dining room and continue throughout.

In the kitchen, a circular counter of honed granite and light-toned English sycamore cabinetry impart a calming sensibility. The master suite comprises an entire wing of the home and boasts a lap pool framed by a sloping zinc roof, a sky lit gallery and dressing area, an office, a sitting area with a floor-to-ceiling fireplace, and an exquisite bathroom.

Pocket doors from the living pavilion access a two-room guest suite. This private Solebury Twp. retreat is minutes from New Hope and an easy commute to both NYC and Philadelphia.
