      Description
      
      
Don’t miss this rare opportunity to own a piece of Hopewell’s history—once serving as the meeting house for the Woosamonsa School—now updated with all the benefits of modern living.  Nestled along one of Hopewell Township’s most scenic country roads, this renovated colonial sits on a one-acre lot with mature landscaping, perennial plantings, and tranquil outdoor living spaces. A major renovation in 2016 carefully preserved the home’s antique character while adding modern amenities. Inside, the open floor plan is highlighted by wide-width antique pumpkin pine floors and abundant natural light. The kitchen features soft-close cabinetry, granite counters, and stainless steel appliances, opening to the dining and living rooms. The dining room also provides access to a cozy side porch that captures the morning sunrise—perfect for enjoying your coffee. A three-season room offers flexible space for an office, entertaining, or guest use, and opens with a sliding door to the back deck. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite includes vaulted ceilings, an en-suite bath, and generous closet space. Three additional bedrooms and a fully renovated hall bath complete the level. In 2019, new Mongolian hardwood flooring was added to the upstairs hallway and primary suite. Outdoors, enjoy a deck positioned for beautiful sunsets, a fire pit for evenings under the stars, and a tranquil koi pond with lotus flowers and lily pads. Additional features include a two-car garage with interior access and a barn with carport—ideal for storage, hobbies, or equipment. With updates including a new roof, septic, heat pump, water heater, and driveway (2016), this home blends history, quality, and convenience. Located just minutes from Pennington Borough and with easy access to I-95, it offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of Hopewell’s history in a truly idyllic setting.
