This home's history as an 1800's farmhouse shows in the gracious feel of its high ceilings and tall windows; its present reflects the vision of an architecturally trained and experienced artist who prizes safety, functionality, and flexibility along with unique sculptural elements. The first floor is now open plan, with a south-facing sunroom flowing into a large kitchen (with concrete countertops, two ovens, and two sinks), and from there to generous dining and gathering spaces alongside a bedroom (with its own entrance), full bath, and laundry. You might see joy, life, seafoam, or champagne bubbles in the stair rail. When you get upstairs, luxuriate in the primary suite's separate sitting area or its 7? x 6? spa shower, take advantage of the second laundry, or hang out in the treehouse-feeling fourth bedroom. Satisfy your practical side with the ample storage, closet organizer systems, the ability to heat either 50 or 100 gallons of water, top-down/bottom-up shades, and safety features like the Moen Flo and a Nest. The yard has organic raised garden beds, an apple tree, grape vines, a back deck with a hardwired gas grill, and a brick patio. Use/finish the outbuilding however you wish. It includes nearly 1, 000 square feet of open floor space with dormers and new utilities (electric, gas, water, and sewer) as well as a 4 bay garage. On a friendly street near Prospect Park, walk just 20 minutes to Depot Town or the Corner Brewery while enjoying lower Township taxes.
