Built in 1850 and beautifully preserved, this stunning 4-bedroom, 3.1-bath home spans three levels and 3,381 sq. ft. in the heart of the Poplar Lawn Historic District. Inside, original hardwood floors, soaring 11-foot ceilings, grand hallways, and exposed brick showcase the home’s rich history. Step through the original double front doors into an inviting foyer that sets the tone for the home’s timeless elegance. To the left, a spacious dining room bathed in natural light from floor-to-ceiling windows sits conveniently beside the gourmet kitchen, which boasts granite countertops, an island, stainless steel appliances, and a range hood. On the opposite side, an expansive living room opens to a covered back porch, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Upstairs, the second floor offers a dedicated laundry area, a hall full bath with updates, and three spacious bedrooms. The primary suite features a walk-in closet and a bright, airy en suite bathroom. The walkout basement is as functional as it is stylish, with epoxy flooring, a fully equipped in-home gym, a private in-law suite/4th bedroom with full bath, and an additional flex space ideal for an office or recreation. Recent 2025 updates include a newly sealed roof, serviced HVAC, and restored front and back porches. Additional highlights include ample off-street parking, close proximity to I-95, I-85, Central Park perfect for outdoor activities, and Gregg-Adams/Fort Lee. This property also qualifies for a $10,000 grant program, comes with ADT security equipment, and a transferable home warranty for added peace of mind.
