Description

A stunning 1835 Greek Revival stands on 7+ acres in Hopewell Township with a Princeton address. Whether gazing at the daffodils from the stone patio or surveying the property from the cupola four stories high, the view is indeed always fair. With sophisticated interior embellishments, beginning with Greek key molding in the vestibule entry, it is apparent this was not a typical farmhouse, but rather a bucolic escape for the well-to-do and their guests, many of whom left their mark on the cupola walls....A stunning 1835 Greek Revival stands on 7+ acres in Hopewell Township with a Princeton address. Whether gazing at the daffodils from the stone patio or surveying the property from the cupola four stories high, the view is indeed always fair. With sophisticated interior embellishments, beginning with Greek key molding in the vestibule entry, it is apparent this was not a typical farmhouse, but rather a bucolic escape for the well-to-do and their guests, many of whom left their mark on the cupola walls. Below, carved marble mantels and ceiling medallions dress the double parlor and formal dining room. The den has a brick fireplace, and like the rest of the house, lovely original wood floors. Professional appliances equip the eat-in kitchen with access to the oversized garage and a charming butler's pantry. Atop the main staircase, a sun-drenched sitting area opens to three large bedrooms, each with a fireplace, and two full baths. A fourth bedroom enjoys its own level and access to the rear staircase.
