Lambertville, NJ 08530

Cute as a Button! This charming 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 the first time in twenty years. Located in the quiet part of town - makes 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 1873, the home has many of the old and sought-after characteristics but with the added conveniences of today?s necessities. The lovely front porch is a staple of this era home, a perfect spot to enjoy a cup of coffee with a friend or a moment to read the Sunday Times. Relax and don't do anything at all except lazily watching the quiet town life slowly pass by. Enter into the cozy living room, filled with lots of natural light, unusual for a home this age. The beautiful honey-colored hardwood floors lead you to the formal dining room, big enough for a small sit-down supper for friends and intimate enough for a candle-lit dinner for two. The old wall separating the two rooms was removed long ago offering a more modern openness and flow. The kitchen has ample space for a small eat-in table and enough counter space to prepare your next feast. There is also a powder room conveniently located right next to the kitchen. The sliding glass doors opens to your spacious deck - a great space for your summer barbecues with room enough for a large grill and seating for your guests. The party can also spill out into your backyard should you need more seating and room to serve. The yard is a perfect size, small enough to be easily maintained, and big enough for some fun games, and relaxing gardening. The upstairs offers a large main bedroom with new ?soft on your feet? carpeting and a wall of closets - a full bathroom and a second bedroom are also on this floor. The third floor offers a full attic with lots of extra storage space in addition to room for storage in the dry basement. The recently added solar panels are an added perk for the green-conscious buyer with future savings on your electric bill. This home has so much to offer for the full-time home buyer or the weekender that wants something quaint and manageable where you can close the door and leave until next weekend without worries. 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.
