This property is also known as 5 Hansen Place. A Playfully Restored Barn, 1700's Cottage and Artist Studio/Home Office in Pennington Borough Set on nearly 6 acres of rolling meadows, a stream and towering trees, but also "in- town", this property includes 3 buildings high on charm, personality and versatility. The highlight is an 1850 post-and beam barn, meticulously reimagined as a residence/retreat. The first floor offers one or two bedrooms, a five-star limestone shower, and marble steam room with a soaking tub and separate shower. Multiple sets of black metal French doors frame panoramic views of the property, and lead to a deep front porch made of epay wood. A lively pop of color-bright yellow Italian kitchen cabinetry-provides a sunny greeting near the front entrance. Radiant heat concrete floors, expertly restored wood floors, venetian plastered walls and ceilings, and European fixtures add a touch of modern elegance. The second floor offers a high, sun-filled space for a master bedroom, yoga/meditation studio or home office, with wide plank chestnut floors, white lacquered drawers and gallery-style bookcases, and powder room. A bungalow-style post and beam cottage, dating to the 1700s, is at the center of the property. Recently remodeled with a new kitchen and boiler, the cottage retains much original charm with wide plank wood floors, exposed beam ceilings and stone basement. A large bathroom with clawfoot tub and hand-held shower, living room prepped for a wood/pellet stove, dining room and den/office complete the first level. Upstairs, find four bedrooms or home office/craft rooms. A door from the kitchen leads to the backyard, and a deep front porch deep needs invites relaxation. The third structure, recently built, is a spacious modern studio with big windows, skylights, aluminum metal roof and full basement, perfect for an artist studio or home office/business. Both it and the barn are equipped with new electric and high-speed internet service. Two winding driveways, from Lewis Brook Rd. and N. Main St. , offer dual access to the one of the largest sites in town, which is adjacent Penn View Heights neighborhood and has been vacant since COVID-19. Enjoy sidewalk access to a downtown filled with boutiques, eateries, spas, schools, the renowned Pennington Market, plus a short commute to Princeton, Hopewell, Lambertville, Bucks County and the NJ Transit Hamilton train station for a quick trip to NYC or Philadelphia.

R100
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.
