Welcome to 100 Main Street, one of first 11 homes built in Riverton and listed on the Historical Register! In the mid 1800's 9 Quaker businessmen from Philadelphia conceived of an idea for a new community where they could spend their summers away from the hustle and bustle of the city. They formed the "Riverton Improvement Company" and purchased 120 acres along the Delaware River. They designed the town and Riverton became what is thought to be the first planned residential community in America. This lovely home was designed by Samuel Sloan, a noted Philadelphia architect and has been lovingly restored back to its original beauty. Home offers over 3,400 sq ft of living space and is built in the Gothic Revival and Italianate style.
