2505 Main Street Lawrence Township, NJ 08648
One of the grand dames of the Village of Lawrenceville’s historic Main Street is about to hit the market, and it won’t last long. With its traditional floorplan thoughtfully updated throughout, the three-story, shake-shingled home presents the perfect mix of classic and contemporary. Set back from the road and partially concealed behind a tall hedge, the home is surrounded by manicured lawns, mature trees, spring- and summer-flowering shrubs, and a pergola draped with red roses all season long. A covered porch frames the front entrance, which opens into the living room where 9-foot ceilings with boxed beams, polished wood floors and a wood-burning fireplace steal the show. A nearby sun room with two walls of windows invites relaxation. To the left of the entry, a formal dining room opens to the living room and kitchen. There, white and shades of gray create a soothing environ designed for serious cooking, while a Sonos-ready speaker system fills the main level and deck with music. A full suite of stainless-steel appliances includes a six-burner gas Wolf range with double ovens and grill/griddle, microwave drawer, beverage cooler, dishwasher and sub-Zero refrigerator. Classic lighting and cabinet fixtures are a nice contrast to the open shelving made of stainless steel. A light filled breakfast room with gas fireplace and a wall of floor to ceiling custom cabinets and the spacious family room both provide access to the raised deck overlooking a blue stone patio and gas firepit. At the back of the home, a half-bath and mudroom are the perfect place to enter in bad weather. A turned staircase leads to the second level, where two bedrooms share a hall bath, and the master suite features a private bath and a hallway lined with built-in storage. On the home’s third level, a full bath with a nautical theme and several large rooms with peaked ceilings provide space for sleepovers and playtime. The hidden surprise here is the large, finished space above the detached garage. Built-in bookcases on three walls, wide plank flooring and a full bath make the space perfect for a library, home office, guest house, au pair quarters, Airbnb (it’s directly across from the Lawrenceville School and would be perfect for visiting parents!) and more. Among the home’s many modern upgrades are a dedicated car charger in the garage, timed irrigation in the garden beds, radiant heat in the mudroom and powder room, a whole-house generator, and new ductless A/C units on the second and third floors. Located a few miles from downtown Princeton, and convenient to train stations and major highways and the areas universities and private schools.
