About This Home

As of July 2020

Welcome to 320 South Main Street, standing prominently in Historic Hightstown since 1891. Craftsmanship, Solid-state construction and many improvements over the years have kept this home updated with the modern times, while also maintaining the Historical integrity. This stunning 5 BR Victorian home is a rare combination of historic character and modern living, steps away from downtown Hightstown and across from the Peddie School. Prior to entering the main foyer, an open and enclosed covered porch greets you with grand pillars and hardwood floors which are blended beautifully with the brick front and manicured landscaping. Enter the home into the center hall foyer flanked by a sizable parlor/music room which leads through the double pocket doors and into a bright exposed Living Room with hardwood flooring, built-in bookcases, and centered fireplace. Tucked away in the front corner of the home sits a home office/mudroom and impressive four season sun room. Opposite the Living Room is mirrored by the large Dining Room beaming with natural light, displaying hand crafted moldings and a gas fireplace. The bright and airy open Kitchen features refined cabinetry, porcelain farm sink and stainless steel appliances. The second floor boasts the same English oak floors, 4 larger size bedrooms, Updated full bath, and a Jack and Jill half bath. The fifth bedroom is in the finished third floor attic, which could be converted to gym/meditation, or a play room. The backyard of this Grand Victorian is a great get away from the hustle and bustle enclosed with 6 ft. Vinyl fencing, plenty of trees and flowers that have been attractively positioned around the built in heated pool - Plus a detached 2 car garage with a loft. Steps away from the local brewery, tavern, bagel shop, diner, deli, shoe repair, pizza place, and an ice cream shop. Minutes form the turnpike, 195, and Rt. 130.
