About This Home

As of January 2023

You are going to fall in love with this one-of-a-kind home, peacefully set on 1.7 idyllic acres in the Sourland Mountains section of Hopewell Township. Originally constructed as a church in Circa 1844, it was then years later, delightfully converted and expanded into its present day 3 BR, 2 BA residence while still preserving much of its original character. Special features include a stunning barrel-vaulted Great Rm, oversized windows, extensive millwork & a still-functioning church bell! Many recent updates include newer septic system, new furnace, HWH & elec service panel. The unique floor plan offers 2 BR’s & full BA on 1st floor plus a luxurious 2nd floor master with vaulted ceiling a & large en-suite bath. The open concept design is perfect for entertaining, with the original vaulted worship hall repurposed into a magnificent Kitchen/Dining/Living space that flows seamlessly together as one magnificent Great Room. There's room for everyone at the expansive breakfast bar and the kitchen also includes a marvelously large walk-in pantry. This main living level also offers the convenience of a nicely sized laundry room and boasts a sun-filled Family Room with french doors to the deck & private grounds. There's also a nicely sized loft above the kitchen that could be the ideal spot for your home office/study. This year-round retreat is just 12 miles from Princeton and less than 2 miles from the Borough of Hopewell.
