This period home circa 1812 was Stacy Brown’s place of business/residence & part of the post office serving this pleasant & sweet hamlet. The original name of the town was Pebbletown. It was changed and thus the name of the village from that time on known as Brownsburg! This lovely 19th century home offers so many of the trappings, building materials and accents that are part of its history. The exterior features beaded clapboard siding, slate & standing metal seam roof, 9 over 6 pane windows on the first floor & graceful dormers on the third level. Exposed beams, handsome pine floors, period hardware, fine millwork & doors throughout add to its ambience. Great window placement brings abundant light throughout. A large formal living room with a pine floor served as the post office in days gone by. The dining room features a mantled corner fireplace with herringbone brick hearth, pine floor and exposed beams. The focal point of the kitchen is a walk-in mantled fireplace with herringbone hearth floor. Exposed beams, remarkably wide pine floor & built-in cupboard complement this informal breakfast or dinner area and takes you back to a simpler time! A deep Kohler porcelain sink with soapstone counter looks on to a window and the rear yard. A half bath with pedestal sink completes the first floor. Pie steps lead you to the second floor. This level has 6 over 6 windows. A sizeable sitting room/flex space with closet features huge center & exposed beams characteristic of the period. A mantled fireplace adds to the charm. There are 2 bedrooms on this level with pine floors. A full ceramic bath offers a soaking tub and a separate shower with attractive sub-way tile and a marble top vanity sink. A convenient laundry area is adjacent to the bath and offers a separate closet & window. A second pie staircase takes you to the finished third floor with 2 spacious rooms both having cathedral exposed beam ceilings & dormer windows. A rear covered porch running the width of the house provides a place for intimate outdoor dining from late spring through early fall. The basement with utilities is accessed from the covered porch by trap door. There is a detached utility building approximately 25’ X 19’ with space for a compact auto and additional storage with loft to right side of the building. The rear yard provides pleasant surroundings for gardening and relaxation. There appear to be dampers in all three fireplaces. The seller does not represent that the fireplaces are in working condition and the property is being sold in “As Is Condition”. Place your mark & finishing touches to make this a home to be cherished & enjoyed. A Much-desired area, convenient to New Hope & Lambertville’s cultural activities, fine restaurants, shops, Bowman’s Hill & Washington Crossing Parks, Princeton, I-95 & Rt. 202 & Rail to New York & Philadelphia.
