About 80 W Bridge St
A rare opportunity to acquire an established and highly successful bed-and-breakfast in the heart of New Hope—one of the Delaware River Valley’s most popular year-round destinations. Located just over a block from downtown, 80 W. Bridge Street offers an exceptional combination of historic character, guest accommodations, owner or caretaker quarters, generous on-site parking, and an enviable walk-to-everything location.
Known as the Aaron Burr House, local tradition holds that Aaron Burr sought refuge here following his infamous 1804 duel with Alexander Hamilton—a fascinating piece of history that adds to the property’s distinctive identity and appeal. Built in 1854, the stately residence is filled with the authentic architectural details travelers seek in a historic inn, including rich hardwood floors, multiple fireplaces, crown moldings, chair rails, and gracious period rooms.
The property is currently configured to support a well-established hospitality operation. The first floor features four inviting guest suites, many located within the home’s original formal living and parlor rooms. The second floor offers a spacious kitchen, elegant dining room, comfortable sitting room, powder room, and two additional bedroom suites. The third floor includes a private two-bedroom caretaker’s apartment, providing convenient accommodations for an owner-operator, innkeeper, or staff. A partially finished lower level offers additional accommodations and a full bath, further enhancing the property’s versatility.
Guests can park on-site and explore New Hope on foot, with acclaimed restaurants, galleries, boutiques, theaters, nightlife, the Delaware River, and the Delaware Canal Towpath all just moments away. The attractions of Lambertville, New Jersey, are easily accessible just across the bridge, creating an even broader selection of dining, shopping, arts, and recreation for visitors to enjoy.
The expansive parking area occupies what was historically a separate lot, offering intriguing possibilities for future exploration, subject to New Hope Borough approvals. Its proximity to Philadelphia, New York City, and Princeton provides access to a substantial regional guest market and makes the inn an appealing destination for weekend getaways, celebrations, cultural excursions, and visits throughout the year.
Whether purchased by an experienced hospitality operator or someone who has always imagined owning a distinctive inn in one of Bucks County’s most desirable destinations, 80 W. Bridge Street presents an extraordinary opportunity to continue an established business while becoming the steward of a truly memorable New Hope landmark.
