Property Description
Welcome to this enchanting American Four-Square home nestled on one of Hightstown's most desirable streets. Built in 1920, this classic home seamlessly blends original architectural charm with modern comforts, lovely updates, and green improvements. With 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and 1,640 square feet of living space, this property is perfect for those looking for a historic home with room to grow. As you approach, you'll be greeted by a spacious, inviting enclosed front porch—ideal for relaxing, entertaining, and welcoming guests. Step inside to find a charming living room featuring a gas fireplace and dining area, connecting to a generous family room. The hardwood floors with inlay design borders are attractive features of the period, adding to the home's timeless appeal. The welcoming floorplan invites access to the bright, airy eat-in kitchen from both the living and family rooms. The kitchen has been updated to meet contemporary lifestyle needs, featuring granite countertops, dishwasher, and GE Profile smart induction/convection range with air fryer. The charming, cedar-fenced backyard is designed to offer privacy, with mature evergreens and perennial ground cover, providing a serene outdoor space. This property also boasts a big unfinished attic and basement, offering ample potential for expansion. The attic, a 625-square-foot dormer-style space with staircase access, has nine windows that flood the area with natural light and is ready for completion with access for plumbing and electric. The unfinished basement with a workbench is a blank canvas for potential additional functional space. The detached garage, with its vintage-style sliding door, adds a touch of nostalgia while providing practical storage space. The home has seen several upgrades since 2020, including the addition of a heat pump/air conditioning system, while still retaining a great gas furnace. Smart washer and dryer, along with numerous cosmetic updates, enhance both functionality and aesthetics. The roof is newer (2015). Located just two blocks from the Grace N. Rogers Elementary School and within easy walking distance to the prestigious Peddie School, this home offers excellent curb appeal and a strong sense of community. Hightstown is ranked #24 in New Jersey's Best Cities to Live in America, known for its "Small Town USA" charm. Enjoy a short walk to downtown shops, Peddie Lake, a park with a bandstand, restaurants, taverns, banks, a coffee shop, an ice cream parlor, and a great pizzeria. In spite of the idyllic setting, the property is also conveniently close to NJ Transit bus stops, NJ Transit and Amtrak Train Station in Princeton Junction, major roads including Routes 1, 130, 195, and 206, and only a 4 minute drive to the NJTPK. Don't miss the opportunity to own a piece of Hightstown history with this beautiful home that offers both vintage charm and modern conveniences. Schedule your showing today!
