About This Home
As of April 202124 Church Street is one-of-a-kind! This pristine historic colonial built in1850, maintains its original charm, but has been updated at every turn. A covered rocking chair porch invites you to the front door where beaming hardwood floors welcome you through the foyer, leading to the spacious living room with 9 foot tall ceilings, large windows, unique wrought-iron crown molding and decorative fireplace surround and mantle. Continue into the sun-lit dining room with space to seat many dinner guests who will marvel at the original refinished ceiling medallions. A doorway leads to the remodeled kitchen featuring Corian countertops, under-mount sink, soft-close cabinets, a large island that seats 4 and Luxury Vinyl Tile flooring. Don’t miss the penny backsplash which is a homage to the home’s ties to Abraham Lincoln! An original door leads to custom pantry shelving that has been built into the pass through leading to the basement where you will discover its original brick floors, cement slab for laundry and dual sump-pumps. The upgraded electrical box powers the nearly 2400 square foot home and new oil tank to fuel the radiators throughout. Back in the kitchen, another side entryway provides easy access to the double driveway and an updated powder room completes the area, which leads to the four season sunroom. Insulated cellular windows with custom treatments, Vermont cast iron gas stove for heat and high efficiency AC unit allows you to enjoy this space all year round! A sliding door whisks you into the backyard featuring an irrigation system for lush green grass, new fencing and stamped concrete patio and fire pit area, which is a hostess's dream! Two sheds with electric provide additional storage. Property backs up to beautiful Heritage Park!

Gain access to the finished walk-up attic, the entire length of the home, featuring a great den space and 4th bedroom. Private double driveway accommodates 6 cars, but you won't need them as the local pharmacy, bakery, coffee shop, restaurants, bar and more are just a short, lovely stroll into town away. It is just a few minutes from 195 and New Jersey Turnpike as well for commuters.
