Welcome to Hopewell Borough and this American foursquare home built in the early 1900's when architectural details were numerous and craftsmen took pride in their work. This home is heavy on preserved character balanced with thoughtful updates and renovations. Its wrap-around front porch is perfect for watching the parades or having morning coffee. The half-glass front doors open into a vestibule and then into the foyer, which has a coat closet, full-length mirror wrapped in chestnut trim, and an original chestnut built-in cabinet. As you turn into the living room, you'll find two sides of windows streaming light and pocket doors at both entryways. From there move into what the owners feel is the heart of their home, the relocated, all-new kitchen which is a gourmet's paradise with its large center island, fabulous mariner-blue cabinets, silestone countertops, stainless steel appliances, three new windows overlooking the back yard and a double window bay complete with a window seat! The kitchen opens past the original, exposed brick chimney to a renovated dining room and the pantry with more cabinetry and a coffee station. and the mudroom with its heated floors and coat hooks and rear door. From the dining room take the hallway, with its renovated half-bath, back to the reception hall and staircase to the second floor. This upper level has four corner bedrooms, a hall bath with double sinks, tub/shower and linen closet, as well as a large laundry room. A second staircase leads to the third floor owner's suite. The suite is an open room with elevated ceilings, a sleeping area as well as sitting or workout space. It adjoins a full bath with a soaking tub and separate shower, both offering views of the backyard and fields beyond. The outbuilding offers space for two cars and has a second floor storage area that can be finished as a play room or studio. The property has a fenced-in yard for pets between the house and garage and an additional yard vast enough for soccer games, kite flying or tent camping. The rear borders the local sheep farm and the side abuts West Prospect Street, a relatively traffic-free artery leading to the elementary school and downtown through extensive protected greenways. This home is a gem in Hopewell Borough, a wonderful village celebrated for its restaurants, stores, parks, community library, elementary school, and tight-knit community. This town has it all! 2023-05-29
