This sweet, well-maintained house with an additional cottage on the property is so cheap for what you’re getting, it seem too good to be true. We do wonder, however, if the fact that its sandwiched between two main roads, State Highway 268 and Route 17, which passes above it via overpass, makes it a noisy, dusty place to live. The Delaware River is but a few feet away, which also raises the specter of flooding. However, Floodsmart.gov gives it a moderate-to-low risk, and that’s good enough for us. Also, the lot is small, only a quarter-acre, and we’re not on board with a lot of the interior design choices, but that’s just personal preference. It’s still a pretty property at a good price.
