Property Description
In Trenton's beloved Mill Hill Historic District, this elegantly preserved rowhome blends historic charm with stylish livability. A gracious double-door vestibule welcomes you in, leading to the living room with tall sash windows that infuse it with natural light. The dining room flows easily into the kitchen, creating a layout that suits both everyday life and easy entertaining. With four-plus bedrooms spread across three finished stories, the home offers remarkable versatility. Whether configured for creative endeavors, a quiet home office, or guest accommodations, the rooms invite a variety of uses, each as compelling as the last. Pumpkin pine floors and original trim whisper of the home's past, while front and back staircases enhance the natural rhythm of movement throughout. Step outside and discover a secluded brick patio that feels like a private garden hideaway: enclosed, intimate, and perfect for summer evenings. Just blocks from the courthouses, playgrounds, municipal offices, and the train station with service to both New York and Philadelphia, this home is rooted in history and connected to everything!
