Description

This circa 1750 stone farmhouse was once The Yardley Tavern and a ferry house, making it a popular stop for travelers and the locals of Yardley. Therersquo;s even evidence that George Washington was a frequent visitor during the American Revolution and that the tavern and smokehouse were used as a stop and safe house for the Underground Railroad. Historic and modern style collide once you step inside, with a portion of the first floor remodeled on the show Stone House Revival. Walking in, you are welcomed into the pub room, featuring an original beehive oven, a bar, an accent shiplap wall, a vaulted ceiling with recessed lighting, and gorgeous brick flooring.

A newly repointed fireplace, soapstone farmhouse sink, new appliances and Quartz counters pose for a great focal point in the newly renovated Kitchen and Breakfast Room.
