For more than a century, this home on River Road in Titusville has been in the care of the same family, lovingly preserved and adapted through generations. Originally built as two side-by-side homes, it was thoughtfully transformed into a single, spacious home. For old-house enthusiasts who crave both character and room to grow, this is a rare find. With four generously sized bedrooms and two full bathrooms, the home boasts a floor plan that can grow with you while preserving its historic soul. A large dine-in kitchen invites lively meals and gatherings, while the family room, complete with a gas fireplace, exudes so much warmth. Two additional large rooms leading to the covered front porch serve well as living and dining rooms. Pine and oak floors throughout are a nod to its roots, adding texture and authenticity to every room. Step into the fenced backyard, where another covered porch offers a perfect setting for summer dinners. Seasonal views of the Delaware River and the Delaware & Raritan Canal in the front add to the scenery. Within the highly regarded Hopewell Valley Regional School District, this is an ideal choice for laying down some roots. The new Titusville Marketplace, just two doors away, means delicious breads and pastries are never far from reach. For the outdoor enthusiast, direct access to the towpath opens up endless opportunities for hiking, biking, and exploration. Sold strictly AS-IS.
