About This Home

As of November 2024

Every so often, a home comes along that’s the perfect blend of modern functionality and old-world charm, and this expanded Four-square in Pennington Borough is that rare find. Just off Main Street, and so close to shops and cafés, it’s pure magic for those who love all the perks of in-town living. The enclosed front porch's welcoming swing gives you front-row seats to a charming tree-lined street. Step inside and be wowed by the sun-soaked windows, spacious rooms perfect for hosting, wood floors, pocket doors, and a kitchen/great room combo with counter seating and a cozy hearth fireplace. Outside, the fenced backyard is ready for action with a deck and half basketball court. The first-floor bath is sleek and modern, conveniently next to a bedroom, while upstairs, four more bedrooms await along with another full bath. A top-floor bonus room can be whatever you need it to be, from a playroom to a home office!
