Grand, Gracious and Filled with Potential. So Much on Offer for an Old Home Lover!As seen in “A Guide to Lawrenceville’s Historic Landmarks,” within easy strolling distance to Lawrenceville’s trendy restaurants, and so close to Princeton, this majestic home has graced the corner of Main Street and Cold Soil Road for over 140 years. With its distinctive mansard roof, its pumpkin pine flooring, pocket doors and lofty ceilings, this is an old home lover’s dream! Although fully usable and move-in ready as it is, there is so much potential here to introduce 21st century functionality and that could even include Airbnb or a two-family home set-up to offset the mortgage. With a little bit of reconfiguring and three finished stories, three sets of stairs, plus front and rear parking, this home could easily accommodate a crowd! Every room in this magnificent offering is filled with natural light thanks to long sash windows (some recently replaced), which make even smaller spaces seem big. The floor plan includes a gracious entry foyer that opens into formal living and dining rooms separated by pocket doors, the kitchen with a breakfast room addition, and the family room with a full bathroom. The second and third floors each have another full bathroom to serve 5 bedrooms, all with original wood flooring. The main suite is on the second floor and connects directly to a roomy, renovated bathroom that also offers hall access. A large second floor laundry room with storage comes in very handy. Offering size, beauty, and an easily adaptable floor plan, this is an exquisite, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
