    What's special

    Experience the charm of this beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 1-bath ranch-style home, set on an expansive and scenic lot along Hopewell Princeton Road and also includes the lot next door. Blending the peace of country living with exceptional convenience, this property offers easy access to downtown Hopewell, Princeton, and the highly acclaimed Hopewell Valley schools—truly the best of both worlds. Step inside to discover a thoughtfully designed single-level layout, featuring gleaming hardwood floors and an abundance of natural light throughout. The updated kitchen, complete with high-end appliances, granite countertops, and ample workspace, is a true centerpiece. The cozy family room, enhanced by a charming fireplace, provides a welcoming space to unwind or entertain. A formal dining room, perfect for hosting holiday meals, flows seamlessly into the adjoining living room, creating an ideal setup for gatherings. All three bedrooms are conveniently located on the main level, offering both comfort and accessibility. The lower level includes a partially finished basement, complete with laundry facilities and generous storage space, providing functionality and potential for additional use. Outside, the private backyard is a tranquil retreat, featuring mature landscaping and plenty of room for gardening, outdoor play, or simply soaking in the surrounding serenity. Recent upgrades include a newly installed water heater and a modernized central air system, ensuring comfort and efficiency. As an added bonus, the property now includes the adjacent lot, offering incredible potential for the savvy buyer. While the additional lot requires a variance for new construction, it presents a unique opportunity to expand, build, or enjoy the extra space and enhanced privacy. This home is ideally situated just minutes from parks, scenic trails, major commuter routes (Route 31, I-295, Route 206), and the vibrant shops and restaurants of downtown Princeton and Hopewell.
