This timeless Victorian gem at 853 Berkeley Ave in the heart of the historic Berkeley Square District is ready for new owners who will appreciate the character, convenience, and craftsmanship of this unique property. This house is just minutes from both the train station and major highways, offering easy access to Princeton, New York, Philadelphia, and the Jersey Shore as well as abundant biking and walking trails and beautiful Frederick Olmsted-designed Cadwalader park. From the moment you arrive, the wraparound covered porch invites you to slow down and soak in the charm. Step through a stunning stained-glass transom onto rich hardwood floors that flow throughout the home—each step telling a story of its history and care. The main level offers a warm and inviting layout, featuring a front parlor with custom built-in shelving that connects to a cozy living room with recessed lighting and a gas fireplace. The formal dining room shines with an antique chandelier–one of three on the first floor–and ample space to host unforgettable gatherings. The kitchen blends function and style with a center island, stainless steel appliances, and a beautifully updated full bath with gleaming subway tiles tucked in the corner. There’s also a secondary staircase–a “Jersey twister”--from the kitchen to the second floor, where three generously sized bedrooms reside plus a designated laundry room, and an open space perfect for a home office, playroom, or flex area. The full bathroom features a soaking tub that adds a touch of classic Victorian elegance. You’ll also find a dedicated laundry room with side-by-side washer and dryer for everyday ease. The finished third-floor attic expands your living space even further with two additional bedrooms and extra storage—ideal for guests, hobbies, or creative use. With natural sunlight pouring in, thoughtful updates, and preserved historic details throughout, this home offers both beauty and versatility for today’s lifestyle. ✨ If you’ve been waiting for a home with soul, space, and story—this is it. **1-year Home Warranty included with sale***
