Wonderful Stay

The property was a charming historic house in a beautiful neighborhood. Sharon and her husband made the check-in process easy. I can't imagine a nicer place to spend our time in New Hope.

This quirky old house was ideal for a fall get away. Everything was very clean and as pictured. It was the perfect location for us to gather as a family with close proximity to downtown New Hope. Great back yard and 3 season porch offers places to gather and chat. Kitchen is well stocked with pots/pans and utensils. Check in was easy. The host was very responsive to any questions we had. We would definitely stay here again!

New Hope Get Away with Old Friends

This house is amazing. It has so much charm and is equipped with everything you need. The backyard is beautiful and very private. The plants and flowers add that extra touch. It’s minutes from shopping, history, and the great outdoors. I recommend this house and hope to return again soon.

Great home close to downtown!

We were attending a three day convention in new Hope and the location of this house was phenomenal. It had everything that we needed and more. Because this is a historic house, it did not have central air, but they did have units in most of the rooms. Please take note that some of the rooms did not have units so they were pretty warm, but these were just sitting areas. The property was beautiful and the homeowners were very hospitable. Hopefully we will see you next year!!

New Hope - 1798 House

We absolutely loved this property and would definitely stay here again. The home was beautifully furnished and very spacious. We were a family of five adults attending a wedding in the area and the location was perfect for the three wedding events that we attended in the area. The property had beautiful outdoor areas including gardens, a fire pit and patio. The host was very easy to work with, even allowing us to change our reservation days. The home was an easy drive from Philadelphia. Thank you for sharing your home with us!💕

Sharon and her husband were wonderful hosts that went the extra mile to make sure that all of our needs were met. They reached out in advance and then met us upon our arrival for a nice tour of the house and the well kept grounds. This was a perfect stay in a quaint and cozy, impeccably restored and maintained 18th century home, with plenty of guest rooms and interesting nooks and crannies. We especially appreciated how clean everything was. The gardens and outside fire pit area was an added bonus. This was a fantastic alternative at a very attractive value compared to renting single hotel rooms. We will definitely consider returning!

About the host

Hosted by Sharon Ryon

Host profile image
We are new to VRBO but as a semi-retired couple who enjoy travel, we decided to share our dream home of 15 years. We hope you enjoy our little slice of Heaven as much as we have here in Bucks County.

Why they chose this property

I grew up in Yardley, PA, just 12 miles south of New Hope. When we first saw 1798 house, we fell in love with its classic historical charm and the setting of a quiet country road. Our neighborhood is dotted with homes like ours, with varied ages from 1700’s to a few newer ones, all on heavily wooded lots. A walk down our road is picturesque with wildlife, and feels more like a stroll on a path in the woods, as many homes are not visible from the road. We especially liked the convenience of one mile from town so we can enjoy all of the dining, shopping and activities New Hope and Lambertville has to offer. One of our favorites is biking or walking along the canal path to Stockton Market for lunch.

What makes this property unique

People who have visited 1798 House always comment on our home’s charm, with its pumpkin pine floors, large wood-burning fireplace, brick pathways and patio, vaulted beamed ceilings, and lush gardens. Mornings will find a guest sipping on coffee in a comfy RH swivel barrel chair on the sun porch, or in our little library with a good book, or lounging on the private patio. Guests enjoy these quiet places before starting an often busy day. Recently we’ve added a solar lit path through the back wooded area of the property that takes you to another sitting area with another fire pit.
