Located just north of the small river village of Center Bridge, Burleigh Cottage once was a school house. It has been expanded and restored to become a beautifully designed residence. The exterior is stucco over stone with a well proportioned frame addition surrounded by professionally designed landscaping with an in-ground pool tucked into the rear yard. The interiors, by Architectural Digest Top 100 designer Bennett Weinstock, are airy, open and brimming with character. Soaring ceilings with open beams, whitewashed and natural exposed stone walls, deep sill windows and wood flooring figure prominently in the main living space. A perfectly tailored country kitchen includes a hidden washer/dryer unit and is adjacent to a step-down dining room. The newest part of the home is a sunroom with French door access to the pool. Upstairs are two bedrooms and two striking baths. The main bedroom features front and rear balconies. The guest bedroom has an eave-style ceiling with an exposed stone wall. Lovingly cared for, this home gets an "A+" for its condition, style and easy access to the canal and river towns along the Delaware
