Welcome to SwanMere Estate, a completely reimagined New Hope estate created for those seeking something increasingly rare: privacy, beauty, space and stillness—without leaving the world behind. Privately positioned on 2.18 acres and backing to an additional 12 acres of privately maintained natural space, SwanMere feels like a world of its own. A long private approach leads to mature landscaping, gardens, walking trails and a peaceful pond, while New Hope’s restaurants, galleries and theater are minutes away and Philadelphia and New York City remain within easy reach. Originally built by renowned New Hope builder Peter Edwardson, the residence has been completely reimagined for modern luxury living while retaining the warmth and character of a timeless Bucks County estate. A soaring 22-foot foyer introduces beautifully proportioned living spaces. The dramatic two-story great room is anchored by a magnificent Bucks County stone fireplace and custom antique mantel. At the heart of the home, the designer kitchen pairs handcrafted cabinetry with Carrara marble and two oversized leathered quartzite waterfall islands. The exceptional appliance suite includes a paneled Sub-Zero refrigerator, custom Italian ILVE cooktop, Viking French-door double oven, two Bosch dishwashers and beverage refrigerator. A custom wine display and butler’s pantry complete the space. The expansive primary bedroom is a retreat unto itself, distinguished by beautiful Bucks County beams that bring warmth and architectural character to the room. Separate dressing rooms and a completely redesigned marble bath create a true private sanctuary. Additional bedroom suites, a spacious bonus room and private third-level guest retreat offer exceptional flexibility. Outside, a herringbone-pattern deck with seamless glass railings, covered outdoor living spaces and an outdoor kitchen overlook the pond and natural landscape. The additional 12 acres of privately maintained space enhance the extraordinary sense of privacy and serenity. Significant improvements include a cedar roof replaced in 2019, 42 owned solar panels, new 75-gallon water heater, new well pump and well wiring, propane fuel and serviced five-zone forced-air HVAC. But the greatest luxury of SwanMere is how it feels—the quiet, the privacy and the space to breathe. Watch the light move across the pond, gather around the fire, stay too long at the table and come home to a private world of your own. New Hope at your doorstep. Philadelphia and New York within reach. SwanMere is not simply a home to see. It is a home that must be experienced.
