A move-in-ready 1900 Victorian farmhouse in the heart of Hopewell Borough, combining original character with modern comfort: fully owned solar, five-zone heating and air conditioning, a welcoming wraparound porch with a swing and English-style gardens. This is the charm of an older home without sacrificing everyday convenience. Original wide-plank pine floors, tall windows and period trim create a warm atmosphere, while thoughtful upgrades bring the home into the present. A fully owned 7.2 kW solar array (no lease or loan), a five-zone ductless mini-split heat pump and a gas boiler with classic cast-iron radiators provide flexible, energy-efficient and environmentally friendly heating and cooling in every season. The solar system keeps electricity costs low, with utility records available upon request. Inside, a bright living room and a dining room with direct outdoor access offer comfortable spaces for gathering. The kitchen features granite countertops, a glass-tile backsplash, a generous island, a gas range, stainless steel appliances and reverse osmosis drinking water. Upstairs, three light-filled bedrooms with smart blinds share an updated full bath with subway tile, mosaic flooring and a smart bidet toilet. The basement provides laundry, additional storage and a nearly new two-person sauna, included with the home. Outdoor living is equally inviting. Enjoy mornings on the porch swing, dine beneath the columned pergola, or gather on the stone fire-pit patio. A herringbone brick patio, a charming picket fence and a fully fenced, gated yard create a private setting with multiple spaces to relax and entertain. A covered carport and driveway provide tandem off-street parking for two vehicles. All this just moments from Hopewell Borough's restaurants, shops, parks and community amenities. The elementary school is two blocks away, the public library three, and Hopewell Fare is next door. Located in the Hopewell Valley Regional School District, with convenient access to Princeton. Historic character. Modern comfort. The best of Hopewell Borough living.
