About This Home
As of September 2024Here’s a Victorian-style gem that will transport you back in time while offering all the modern comforts of today at the same time. From its spacious covered front and rear porches to its intricate inlay oak flooring, high ceilings, and bay windows, every detail is a testament to fine craftsmanship. Inside, a traditional front vestibule with an impressive turned staircase and inlay oak flooring welcomes. Original charming pocket doors separate the living room and dining room, creating the perfect entertaining space. One of the home's most delightful surprises lies in its kitchen and pantry. Up to date, yet in keeping with the house's historic character, the kitchen boasts ample space for whipping up a favorite meal. Its finishes are tasteful, seamlessly mixing functionality with aesthetic appeal from its subway tile wall, open shelving, to its clean-lined cabinetry and countertops. Meanwhile, the adjoining pantry room is a total joy, blending features like doors original to the house with a clever modern-day storage system. Not just a pantry but a handy, versatile space, it even accommodates the coffee nook, washer, dryer and big work sink and loads of storage space adding ease to daily chores. A delightful, turquoise-painted home office provides a serene space for all your creative endeavors. With a closet and a nearby full bath, it could easily serve as a fourth bedroom. Upstairs, there’s another full bath and three good-sized bedrooms, all with wood floors. The main bedroom stands out for its spaciousness and abundant natural light. Large windows frame picturesque views, creating an ambiance that's perfect for rejuvenation. The big, fenced backyard offers a safe place for loved ones and pets. Just a few turns away is the heart of Hightstown itself, a charming Victorian-style town brimming with eye-catching architecture, quaint eateries, and local shops.
