Known as Montgomery House when it served The Lawrenceville School, then affectionately renamed Snug Harbour by the family who has cherished it for the past fifty-plus years, this beloved Lawrenceville landmark is filled with warmth, character, and promise. Storybook timber detailing, inviting covered porch, and intricate leaded windows reveal craftsmanship of another era. Inside, the gracious floor plan highlights all of the exceptional architectural features one would expect from a home of this caliber: a stunning staircase, bespoke woodwork, five fireplaces, and charming window seats. Wood floors remain in remarkable condition and paneled doors still show off their rich wood grain. The beamed front hall and formal dining room are scaled for entertaining, while the living room and den foster more intimate conversation or hunkering down with a good book. Upstairs, five spacious bedrooms are served by three full baths. The unfinished third floor is loaded with possibilities. A two-car garage, mud entry with laundry, and perfectly sized backyard within view of both the expanded vintage kitchen and covered side porch cater to the needs of an on-the-go household. Ready for thoughtful modern updates, this home presents a rare opportunity for personalization and reimagination. To carry forward a piece of Lawrenceville’s legacy will be a worthy venture—and living within its storied walls, the reward. Proudly anchoring the northwest corner of Main Street and Green Avenue, this home is ideally located to enjoy the best of Lawrenceville in-town living: award-winning eateries, Weeden Park community events, the Lawrence-Hopewell Trail, and convenient proximity to Princeton, Hamilton train station, Route 1, and I-295.
