Some homes offer far more than first meets the eye, and this expanded Pennington Victorian is one of them. Set on a rare wide, deep lot just moments from Toll Gate Elementary School, it combines the timeless appeal of an established neighborhood with an impressive amount of indoor and outdoor space. A year-round enclosed front porch with heating and air conditioning creates a welcoming introduction before opening into the living room. Beyond, the kitchen is bright, open, and functional. An inviting addition expands the home's footprint with a fireplace and generous areas for dining and relaxing, while sliding doors lead directly to the fenced backyard, creating an easy connection between indoors and out. Upstairs, four bedrooms with warm wood floors allow everyone some space of their own. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet and private bathroom, while a second-floor sitting area could serve as a home office. A well-appointed hall bathroom serves the ancillary bedrooms. The lower level features two separate basement areas with unusually high ceilings that present exciting possibilities for future finishing, hobbies, storage, or recreation and one even includes a fireplace. Outside, the expansive fenced yard is a true standout. A handsome patio overlooks a remarkably oversized property with abundant space for gardening and entertaining. Completing the package is a substantial detached garage providing exceptional storage and a variety of flexible uses. Located right in the Borough, this home enjoys the charm of tree-lined streets and a vibrant small-town atmosphere while remaining close to shopping, dining, transportation, and major commuter routes. Surprisingly spacious, exceptionally versatile, and with one of the area's more desirable lot sizes, this is a home that offers room to grow both inside and out!
