This captivating turn-of-the-century home is yearning for a new chapter. Built-in 1895, this impressive residence boasts intricate architectural details, spacious rooms, 9ft ceilings, and a wealth of original character waiting to be rediscovered. This home has a formal living room with a nonworking fireplace and pocket doors separating the dining area, perfect for grand gatherings (once restored). There is an eat-in kitchen with a back staircase, and wide plank hardwood floors throughout. There is a separate laundry room adjacent to a full bath. The large foyer has a staircase leading to three bedrooms, a large study area, and a full bath. The second-floor walk-up staircase leads to the attic with extensive storage. In the backyard is the detached garage with a driveway and off-street parking, a garden area, and a flowering tree. While some renovations need to be done, there is a new furnace (2022) and water heater. All knob and tube electricity has been upgraded and the windows have been replaced. The possibilities are endless! This property is in the downtown district of Historical Hightstown, close to local restaurants, shops, and public transportation. Serious inquiries only. Property sold "as-is". DO NOT SCHEDULE THROUGH SHOWING TIME. Schedule through the listing agent.
