In historic Flemington Borough, this circa 1855 Early American Side Hall Colonial has remained under the same ownership for over 170 years! A living archive of craftsmanship, heritage, and thoughtful updates, step inside via the heated front porch, and you’re immediately greeted by incredible woodwork, including original heart pine, so rare it’s no longer available today. The living room’s coffered ceiling adds stately elegance, along with a wood-burning cooking stove, while the original staircase, complete with original balusters, rails, and a Newel post, anchors the home in its historic roots. Every corner of this home whispers of its past. Fully operational window shutters with antique cranks still function as they did in the 1850s. Enclosed wraparound porches provide serene transitional spaces and the potential for expansion. From the side porch, one can access the summer kitchen, a delightful nod to 19th-century cooking traditions. Natural light floods across the original woodwork and illuminates the thoughtful updates that make this home as comfortable as it is historic. The industrial-style kitchen has all new appliances, a stainless sink and a bar sink adjacent to formal dining. Cedar-lined closets add a luxurious yet practical touch to the bedrooms, and modern mechanicals, including updated electric, lighting, plumbing, gutters, and roof, ensure peace of mind without compromising authenticity. The chimney has been relined and the windows replaced, preserving the home's soul while enhancing its efficiency. With four bedrooms, 2½ bathrooms, and two sets of stairs, the layout offers both privacy and flow. Outside, a circa-1850s barn serves as a two-car garage, with an additional bay for lawn equipment. Located just 0.4 miles from blue-ribbon Hunterdon Central High School, this home sits among other historic homes within easy proximity to the borough's popular shops and cafes.
