About This Home

As of August 2024

Welcome to "The Island" community of Trenton in Mercer County, NJ. This riverside enclave boasts fantastic views, varied historical styles of housing, tree lined streets and walkable access to Stacy Park. 1502 Riverside Dr. has a front row seat to life on the river. Sit back and enjoy relaxing sunsets from the enclosed front porch as the river flows gently by. This well built, classic Craftsman style Bungalow has retained many of the original features. Outside you will notice the gentle sloping roof with exposed rafter ends and centered dormers. Then there is the inviting wrap around porch with tapered columns and walls of windows. Lots of curb appeal here with the home's earthy tones and lush garden plantings. Entering the home through the front door brings you into the living room where your eyes will be drawn to the natural wood staircase, beamed ceiling and fireplace. The perfectly sized dining room with built in glass front cabinet is centrally located and accessible from everywhere on the first floor. Off of the dining room is the original tiled bath and first floor bedroom with built-in shelving cabinets. The flow continues into the kitchen which is bathed with natural light and has access to the back yard. Throughout the home there are hardwood floors, multi-paneled solid wood doors, ample closets and plenty of windows and natural light. Upstairs there are two generous size bedrooms, one with en-suite bathroom. There is also a full basement with stairs and bilco door to the outside where you'll find a garden tool shed in the back yard. Home is being sold As Is. Flood Insurance required.
