About This Home
As of March 2025For the first time ever, this Hopewell Borough home is ready for its next chapter. Passed down through three generations of the same family, it has stood as a part of the neighborhood for decades. Now, it’s waiting for someone with vision and a little elbow grease to bring it back to life. With its deep lot, public utilities, and natural gas, the bones are solid, and the potential is undeniable. A home that’s ready for a restorative overhaul, it offers a wonderful opportunity for someone who wants to put down roots in one of the area’s most beloved communities. Hopewell Borough is a place where small-town charm still thrives with tree-lined streets leading to cozy cafes, unique shops, and a strong sense of community. The elementary school is just a few blocks away, making this location an even more appealing choice. Inside, the three-bedroom, one-bath layout is simple and functional, with the added convenience of a first-floor laundry. With the right updates, this house could be transformed into a warm and inviting home, blending modern updates with its classic character. Homes like this don’t come along often, especially in a town as sought-after as Hopewell. If you’ve been dreaming of a project with heart and history, this may just be the one! Sold strictly as-is.
