Description

Cute as a Button! Great opportunity to buy this charming home and make it yours!! Bring your vision and your design ideas! This historic home is nestled in the quaint and charming town of Lambertville - a place where folks still greet you by your first name in the neighborhood cafe. Just in time for the beginning of the season - festivals and town celebrations are just some of the many things that make this the small town you have always dreamed of, and this home is now being offered for someone with a vision and interest in bringing this mature lady back to its glory. Located just on the edge of town - the peace and quiet make it hard to believe that award-winning restaurants, art galleries, shops, schools, antique stores, and the twin town of New Hope are all only a short walk away. Do you like to spend time outdoors? The Historic Delaware River and the mule barge towpath are just around the corner offering many outdoor activities like biking, hiking, kayaking, and even river tubing on a warm sunny day. Built in 1875, the home has many of the old and sought-after characteristics and layout. The lovely backyard is a staple of this era home, a perfect spot to enjoy a cup of coffee with a friend or for a moment to read the NY Sunday Times. Enter the spacious living room with a large brick fireplace, the room is filled with lots of natural light from the many windows, unusual for a home this age. There are old hardwood floors throughout most of the home, covered up for most of the time they are just waiting to be finished to your liking. The cozy formal dining room with exposed walls of brick is big enough for a small sit-down supper for friends and intimate enough for a candle-lit dinner. The kitchen has ample space for a small eat-in table and enough counter space to prepare your next feast, totally functional until you can realize your improved layout with something possibly more modern. Next to the kitchen is a more recently added large room with a full bathroom, closets and access to the backyard offering endless possibilities. This space has been used as a first-floor bedroom in the past but could be a great space for any of your personal needs, maybe a new spot for the kitchen/family room combination? The yard is the perfect size for gatherings yet small enough to maintain. Upstairs offers a large main bedroom and two smaller bedrooms with a shared full bathroom (recently updated). The third floor offers a full attic with lots of extra storage space in addition to room for storage in the basement. This home has so much to offer for a full-time or weekend residence. The location offers an easy commute to most NE locations with the entrance to Rt. 202 just down the road. Manhattan is only 90 minutes away and Philly about 60 minutes away.
