Property Description
Step back in time when you arrive at this charming farmstead on the edge of Hopewell Borough. On 2.5 acres, carved from the original farm that dates back to the 18th century, it is noted in the book Pioneers of Old Hopewell as “the first farm east of Hopewell” and for about a century “the home of one of the most prominent branches of the Stout family.” Grounds include a detached three-bay garage, a carriage house, and a tennis court. The property borders a sprawling meadow with majestic trees, adding to the idyllic feel of the grounds. The home itself has been impeccably maintained and thoughtfully updated by its long-time owner and boasts generously proportioned rooms and an updated kitchen. Four bedrooms and a study are on the upper levels, and each is perfectly scaled to keep everyone comfortable. The study has its own history as this home was once owned by revered children’s book and mystery author Keith Robertson, and here is where he honed his craft. The kitchen is spacious and efficient, with space for a large dining set near the fireplace, and offers plenty of counter space with zones for cooking, cleaning, and chopping. The formal dining room is adjoined by two front parlors, serving as a family room and the living room. The family room has a cozy nook that could be a second work-from-home space if needed. The main bedroom has its own private bathroom and there’s a hall bathroom to serve the other bedrooms, plus a powder room in the kitchen. The allure of this historic home is further accentuated by its convenient location near popular Borough eateries and thoroughfares to nearby Princeton. Searching for something really special? Here it is!
