A complete, top-to-bottom renovation has brought this classic Mill Hill home into the modern era, while honoring its past and respecting its 1886 roots. Step through the vestibule entry, a hallmark of the urban Victorian row house, to discover that walls were selectively removed for a spacious, open feel that immediately showcases the scale and features of the living/dining room. A carved stone mantel remains a distinguished anchor in the sitting area and tall pocket doors are now creatively displayed as a feature wall, behind which a powder room is hidden. Original hardwood floors with inlaid borders were revived, both here and on upper floors. Far roomier and more luxurious than one might expect, the kitchen’s polished jet-black stone countertops are joined by marble-veined porcelain tile, a Samsung appliance package and statement lighting that adds a contemporary edge. An alcove with floating shelves is the perfect spot to display a wine collection, while a deep pantry keeps cooking essentials out of sight. Storage is also surprisingly ample upstairs, where closets are exceptionally large. High ceilings, exposed brick and abundant light through new windows are some of the striking elements of the 4 comfortably sized bedrooms, which are served by 2 full baths. The main suite comprises the entire top floor, offering lucky owners a quiet retreat with a dressing area leading into a sleek, spacious bath. For personalized comfort, choose between zoned radiator or forced air heat. Out back is an opportunity to cultivate the garden of your dreams overlooking Assunpink Creek, a slice of natural paradise that flows through Trenton’s most treasured neighborhood.
