Property Description
The Bluff House : An Iconic Estate with Historic Soul and Rare Riverfront Majesty. Set high above the banks of the Delaware River, with sweeping double-bend views that stretch across three states to High Point Monument, The Bluff House is a masterclass in natural beauty, privacy, and timeless elegance—an extraordinary offering rarely seen on the market. Originally constructed circa 1876 as a summer resort hotel welcoming travelers to Milford's pristine riverfront, this storied estate has evolved into a one-of-a-kind private residence. Nestled on over 2.2 acres, with 350 feet of low water mark Delaware River frontage, the home offers the best of both worlds—total seclusion and walk-to-town convenience in the heart of historic Milford Borough. Enter the property and you're transported to a world of peace and panoramic majesty. Every window & outdoor space frames a living canvas: Radiant sunrises, mesmerizing moonrises, mist-draped mountains & eagles in flight. From quiet winter mornings when sunlight reflects off the icy river into the great room, to vibrant summer gatherings by the private pool—this is a home that celebrates every season with equal enchantment. Inside, you'll find over 3,000 square feet of timeless comfort & flexible design. Four bedrooms and 3 full baths are complemented by stunning features including original walnut paneling, double heating systems for energy efficiency, and a versatile one level layout perfect for entertaining or multi-generational living. An existing private wing offers potential for guest quarters or a studio retreat. Highlights Include: Unmatched rare federal land bluff-top views of the Delaware River and New Jersey ridge. Historic significance as a 19th-century luxury hostelry. Spacious, sunlit interiors ideal for events and celebrations. Walkability to Milford's shops, restaurants, Delaware National Recreation Park, McDade trails and more. Less than 90 minutes to NYC and close to transportation corridors.
