Description

There's a timeless quality to 513 Cherry Valley Road, a Dutch Colonial built in 1876 that stands as both a piece of local history and a warm, inviting residence. Records confirm its late 19th-century construction, when Skillman was evolving from farmland into a community shaped by new rail lines and industry. With hardwood floors, exposed beams, and wood-shingle exteriors, the home reflects Montgomery Township's Dutch heritage, its craftsmanship preserved and enhanced over generations.

Records confirm its late 19th-century construction, when Skillman was evolving from farmland into a community shaped by new rail lines and industry. With hardwood floors, exposed beams, and wood-shingle exteriors, the home reflects Montgomery Township's Dutch heritage, its craftsmanship preserved and enhanced over generations. On its 1.06-acre lot, this 2,900 sq ft residence offers a balance of history and comfort. Sunlight streams across cherry cabinetry and granite counters, while the center island invites gatherings. Beamed ceilings, cozy fireplaces, and a sunroom that opens to a bluestone patio showcase the gracious living traditions of Princeton homes. Outdoors, perennial gardens and mature trees create a private retreat. The thoughtful layout includes four bedrooms, with a convenient first-floor suite and two baths upstairs. Whether celebrating holidays in the dining room, watching snowfall from the sunroom, or dining under summer stars, every season finds its place here. Minutes from downtown Princeton and Montgomery's top schools, 513 Cherry Valley Road isn't just a house it's a continuation of the area's rich tradition of living well. 4 Bedroom Septic
