Greg Lang and his wife made a significant lifestyle change when they moved from Wilmington to Bucks County, drawn by Greg’s new job at an insurance company in Princeton, writes Paul Jablow for The Philadelphia Inquirer.  

The couple fell in love with a historic home nestled on three acres, part of what was originally a 1,000-acre farm on 122 Walker Road.

This house, with parts dating back to 1750, has a rich history tied to Abraham Harvey, a farmer and merchant who owned the ferry service that transported George Washington across the Delaware River during the Revolutionary War. 

The home features four bedrooms, three and a half baths, and maintains many original elements such as wide plank floors, high ceilings, exposed beams, and beveled glass windows.  

Modern updates include a renovated primary bathroom with dual sinks and a large dressing room, a kitchen with granite countertops and built-in appliances, and essential home improvements like a new boiler and roof. 

Listed at $1,095,000 by RE/MAX Centre Realtors, this unique property combines historical significance with modern luxury. It is ideal for a family looking to immerse themselves in America’s past while enjoying contemporary comforts.
