Realtor Comments

Remarkable waterfront estate steeped in rich history and timeless elegance, situated along the Delaware River in Edgewater Park, NJ.  Over the centuries, it has evolved into a grand residence featuring 7 bedrooms and 6.5 bathrooms, offering a unique blend of historical significance and modern luxury. For the first time, this exquisite home is available on the open market, having always been sold privately in the past. The estate’s storied past includes ownership by Elias Boudinot, a prominent figure who served as President of the Continental Congress and was appointed by George Washington as Director of the United States Mint. In the mid-1800s, the property was transformed by a wealthy Philadelphian, who expanded the home in the Italianate style and added a striking four-story tower. In 1898, the residence underwent extensive renovations, adding a third floor, a grand staircase, and a stunning stained glass Palladium window, while embracing a Victorian neo-Colonial exterior. The original farmhouse became the servants’ quarters, and the estate was further enhanced with a porte-cochere, a two-car garage, and a large pier with riparian rights.
