A Rare Large, Detached Home And Secret Garden On Charming George Street

Opportunities like this rarely come along in Lambertville: a large, circa 1880s freestanding home with off-street parking on picturesque George Street, where the streetscape feels like something you’d find in a quaint European town. Rich with period details, including beautiful pumpkin pine floors, it has also been thoughtfully updated for today’s lifestyle with central air through the main level, updated electrical, a whole-house generator and an exceptional first-floor primary addition, creating the best of both worlds. Beyond the home, a backyard unfolds into a true secret garden with lush plantings, a garden shed, a pond, patio and retractable awning. Both the sunroom and the primary suite open directly to this enchanting outdoor setting, creating a seamless connection between indoors and out. The spacious primary bedroom with cathedral ceiling elevates everyday living with an adjacent ADA-compliant bathroom and a removable ramp from the driveway, offering accessibility when desired without compromising character. Formal spaces celebrate the home’s historic roots, while the living room, centered around a wood-burning stove, invites cozy evenings. The updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances complements the overall timeless appeal. Upstairs are three bright bedrooms and a second full bath, while the finished walk up attic provides generous bonus space ready to adapt to changing needs. A full basement adds even more functionality. Best of all, Lambertville’s acclaimed restaurants, galleries, boutiques and the bridge to New Hope are all just a few blocks away, making it easy to enjoy one of the Delaware River’s most beloved destinations without ever needing the car.
