About 53 Swanerbury Road

Lodge on the Rocks is a recently built 3bed/3 bath home on a secluded 3-acre lot. Originally built in 1860 and reconstructed in December 2021, the home emphasizes sustainability, using stone and wood from downed trees on the property. A screened-in camping structure, called "peRch'D," offers a private nature retreat. Entering through the screened-in porch, you find a mudroom with a bench and full-sized w/d. The kitchen features custom solid hickory cabinetry, quartz countertops, LG appliances, and a gas stove. The large island and adjacent dining table with seating for six or more are perfect for entertaining. The open concept living area has a vaulted ceiling and a monumental bluestone. Remote-controlled skylights and large windows bring in light. Pocket doors can separate the living area from the kitchen. All three bedrooms have en suite baths. The ground floor bedroom has a queen-sized bed, space for a desk, and an exterior door to the massive screened-in porch. The en suite bath features a high-tech shower head. The grand stairway, made from milled trees on the property, leads to the primary bed and has skylights, a jacuzzi tub, and a glass-walled shower. The versatile third bedroom can serve as an office or guest room with a loft bed and barn doors for privacy. The exterior includes a spa-like outdoor shower, bluestone patio w/ fire pit, and a yard with remote-controlled cafe lights. A propane grill and Adirondack chairs surround the fire pit. Comfort is ensured with Nest-controlled central heating and air-conditioning, a hospital-grade Rheem HVAC HEPA/UV filtering system, and a whole-house backup generator. The "treehouse" offers a deck among the trees, a screened interior with sleeper sofa, and strong wifi, ideal for a summer office. The property is a short walk to the Delaware River for swimming, rafting, tubing, and fishing. The current owners have successfully rented the home as a short-term rental, with the option to rent the treehouse independently.
