About This Home
As of June 2025Calling all investors! This four bedroom home in the Top Road section will be vacant soon. With a little bit of work, this could be an income-producing rental property or family home. Located hear the Lawrence / Trenton border, this is a great opportunity for first time home buyers, multi-generational families and investors alike. Adding to the allure of this opportunity is a detached two car garage and sizeable yard. The property is in the process of being cleared out.
This home is a short drive to Mercer County Park, Mercer Community College, Trenton and Hamilton Train Stations and Mercer County Airport, providing easy access to both Philadelphia and NYC.
