About This Home

As of March 2024

Lovers of 19th-century architecture will want to add this charming home, built in 1860, to their must-see list. When you visit, be sure to notice the original random-width pumpkin pine floors, built-in cubbies, and 2-over-2 windows, many with wavy glass panes still intact.
From the deep front porch, step into an entryway that opens to the dining room on the right and the living room on the left. There, two distinct sitting areas, one with a wood-burning fireplace, invite relaxation. The kitchen, at the back of the home, is spacious enough for a long table with chairs and is a wonderful place from which to watch the seasons change through a bay of windows that frame a view of the deep backyard. The view is especially nice in winter, when snow sparkles from the branches of pine trees from Christmases past. An attached deck and a patio are ready for al fresco dining during warmer weather.
White cabinets, an island topped with an induction cook top and industrial-strength vent concealed by a decorative hood, and white painted beams enhance the home’s farmhouse vibe.
The second level is where you’ll find three bedrooms and two baths, each with a vintage feel befitting the home’s provenance. One sports a wall-mounted legless sink and wainscot paneling, and the other a pedestal sink, paneling and terra cotta tile floors.
Storage options abound in the home’s walk-up attic, full basement with Bilco doors, and detached shed. Recent improvements include a new water heater and water softener, a freshly painted interior, and refinished floors on the main levels and stairs.
Location wise, you’ll be near Pennington’s charming downtown with its eateries, boutiques and spas, and within easy commuting distance of major roadways and train stations with service to Philadelphia and New York City.
