A Garden Filled Victorian In The Heart Of Hopewell Borough

English-style gardens, a wraparound porch and a picket-fenced yard make this Victorian farmhouse feel worlds away, even though Hopewell Borough is right outside the door. Garden patios and a pergola create several inviting places to enjoy flowers and plantings and a surprisingly private outdoor setting. Inside, wood floors run throughout, bringing warmth and character to rooms that feel relaxed and comfortable. The living room has a cozy, curl-up-with-a-book quality, while the dining room opens directly outdoors, keeping the gardens very much a part of the house. The kitchen strikes a fresh, modern note with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops and a long center island with plenty of room for prep, serving and gathering. A door opens to the wraparound porch, creating an easy connection between indoors and out. Upstairs, three bright, sunny bedrooms have a cheerful feel. The full bathroom has a clean, current look that complements the home’s older character. And here, the Borough really is right outside the door. Restaurants, parks, shops and favorite local spots are close at hand. The elementary school is two blocks away, the public library is three blocks away and Hopewell Fare is right next door.
