A central gable peak and lemonade front porch only hint at the many charms of this esteemed home, which has seen nearly 200 years of Hopewell life go by. Sharing a spacious corner lot dotted with tall pines are a crop of outbuildings: a spring house, 1-car garage, and a small barn that can provide space for a workshop, art studio, or fantastic storage. Wide plank floors flow through much of the home, including the living room with a decorative fireplace, and the family room with an adjoining farmer's porch. The sunlit kitchen could have gas cooking, as a natural gas line to the house has been installed. 2 rooms for an office or guests, plus 3 bedrooms, including one on the first floor, are served by 2 full baths. Heating and electrical have been updated; the siding and windows have been replaced; a brand new septic system comes with 2 years' of pre-paid maintenance. Being sold as is, but there's lots of character and space here - just bring your appreciation of the past and vision for the future! Close to Hopewell Borough and downtown Princeton!

R75
Residential District
The purpose of this section is to recognize the existing pattern of detached dwellings, to preserve environmentally critical areas as identified in the adopted master plan and the natural resources inventory, and to allow the township to provide a variety of housing, including lower income housing in the identified areas. The selection of dwelling unit types in the R-5 District should provide a balance of housing choices attractive to all income and age segments of the community as part of the township's fair share of the regional housing needs. The criteria are intended to provide flexibility in the design of developments to aid in reducing housing costs, encouraging lower income housing, allowing construction to avoid environmentally critical areas, and removing residences from busy highways and other potential nuisances created by noise and visual blight.
